24: One Year On! A Chat with Becki and Sophie

We are nearing the end of Season 3, and also approaching our one year anniversary! So, hosts and graduates Becki and Sophie decided to have a catch up, reflect on the past year (and what a rollercoaster it's been) in the hopes that listeners can resonate and enjoy! * In this episode, Becki and Sophie talk about everything that has happened over the past year and the aspects they have learnt about grad life. Through experiences, highs and lows and the conversations they have had with their wonderful guests - a lot has changed. In the format of asking each other 3 questions (much like waaay back to Episode 2) they managed to keep to some kind of structure! Becki is living in London, working in social media in the real estate industry and rolling out Knight Frank podcasts and freelance journalism. Sophie is working with management consultants as a freelancer, applying for jobs and just started renting with her partner. It's hard for Becki and Sophie to not natter on about grad life (as it is a passion topic after all). However, to give you a bit of a summary, they discuss the value of your degree, work environments, job applications, different kinds of relationships, moving house and to the big city, being bold, finances, and how to manage those good and bad weeks. A lot of this is filtered through the difficult time we are in now, but it also routes back to last year and what we hope for in the future. If you feel the same way or want to chat about anything that was discussed, Becki and Sophie's inboxes are always open!  Tune in for our Season 3 finale with another graduate takeover, and stay up to date on our socials with what we have in store to celebrate our 1 year in September!  * Grad Life by the Horns is a podcast covering every element of graduate life. From the existential dread that accompanies the last few months of university, to entering the post-education world jobless and £30,000 in debt, this fortnightly show is dedicated to helping and celebrating those navigating the 'graduate wasteland'. * Social Media: Co-host: Becki Hills @beckihills Co-host: Sophie Scully @sophsculz Instagram: @gradlifebythehorns Twitter: @gradlifebth Artwork: Livi Arnold @livcreatively_ Producer: Pulama Kaufman @pulam.a Music composer: Julian Schoming @brotherjuju * Want to get in touch?
