Feeling lost after university?
Yes me too, you are not alone…
In this episode, we’re talking about the post uni hangover, that weird, deflating, confusing period after finishing university where you have no idea what is next for you. If you’re navigating uncertainty, comparing yourself to everyone around you, or questioning what’s next, this episode is for you.
I share my own experience of finishing uni, feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, and unsure of my path, and how I moved through it to start building my life and career.
This is your reminder that you’re not behind, you’re just getting started :)
