Brew your coffee, pop in your AirPods, and tune in as we sit down with industry professionals to chat about all things career. We have a tonne of questions to ask like what’s the deal with finding purpose? How do we nail that work-life balance? And Is there some secret roadmap that we’ve completely missed? We’re curious to learn if we’re doing it right, what tips those that have gone before us have, and if it’s normal for our brains to go into overdrive shaping our path to success (if that’s even a real thing?) Join us, Gio and Amanda, as we try and make sense of it all. Spoiler alert: we can’t but hey, we’re giving it a shot. Instagram - @asper.thepodcast
