    19. Life Updates & Reflecting on Junior Year of College w/Megan Sileo

    "That was the first obstacle was figuring out how to translate my habits from home into school while also trying to be your average college student." Today's episode is a solo episode where I chat about my thoughts on junior year of college, focusing on the second semester that was on campus after being remote in the fall. I also talk about the unexpected effect of working out in a college apartment and what I did to navigate these difficulties. I also look forward to the summer and a big goal I have for the next couple months. This episode will be the last episode of season 2. Season 3 will pick up at the end of August as I am taking the summer to gather guests and focus on the link between my guests and the audience listening! Take the summer for yourself. Find a new hobby or habit or finally do the one thing you've been wanting to do. Take the opportunity. WANT TO CONNECT WITH ME?

    16. Making a Career Change into a New Field & Advice for Others Looking to do the Same w/Taylor Vogel

    “It’s a huge opportunity for growth, but it’s also a huge opportunity for failure. And that can be rough initially. As long as you have followed a path where you surround yourself with a supportive environment and a really good support network, it’s something you can weather and it can lead to really wonderful things.” Today I sit down and chat with Taylor Vogel, who is currently working in Arts Administration as the Director of Education and Community Programs for the Fort Worth Sympathy Orchestra. She connects people in the community to the classical musical. She originally started as a teacher in public school and then made the transition to change her career.

    “When I actually just shifted my mindset and started realizing that I wanna do this because I love myself and wanted to take care of my body and I want to make sure that I feel as good today as I am gonna feel in 30, 40, 50 years from now. And that starts with me taking care of myself and learning that it’s so individualized.” Today I sit down and chat with Jane Simmons, who is a certified personal fitness trainer.

    12. Finding a Career as a Business Owner/Designer & The Importance of Hobbies w/Kaitlyn Michelle

    “I would say just take your time and think about what it is you really want to do and what’s also needed. Because you can love something and try to build a business around it, but if there’s not a need for it, then it’s not necessarily going to work. So, finding where those two things intersect and letting yourself figure that out.” Today I sit down and chat with Kaitlyn, who found her career as a business owner and designer. She is a graphic and web designer who found this career through passion and even taught herself the Adobe applications she needed to do what she wanted! We chat about what her work life is like and we also tap into some of her favorite hobbies! Kaitlyn is also a classically trained ballerina, a houseplant lover and an insect enthusiast. We chat about the importance of having a passion for hobbies and how these intersect within her life. WANT TO CONNECT WITH KAITLYN?
