Careers & Work

It can be difficult sometimes, if not downright impossible, to figure out exactly what your direction should be in life, and get it right on the first go. At the age of 16, we are expected to pick higher level subjects that will influence what we can study at uni, which will eventually shape our careers and the rest of our lives… or so we are told. In this episode, we talk about what the 9-5 life is like, versus the freelance life, why engineering or medicine (could be for you, but) is not always the answer and the perception of side hustles in the workplace. We share some nuggets from our own personal experiences with looking for motivation to stay on top of our work, hobbies and briefly touch upon the importance of mental health in the workplace.
