This week we talk about creativity and address the silly notion that creativity is only for stereotypical artists and that science is not a creative field. As per usual, we go into multiple rants (think capitalism, pay gaps between fields, and the likes). It's as Priyanka-Madi as it gets. Leave us a comment and tell us what you think!

This week we discuss our opinions about the way the universe works. Is everything utter chaos, or is there a predetermined order determined by the forces of the universe? In typical Priyanka and Madi fashion, this episode is full is disagreements, laughter, and the general understanding that humans don't really know anything about anything. Hope you enjoy!

This week we're talking about all things advice related, namely where and whom do we get advice from, how do we go about seeking advice, what are the different ways we get advice from folks, and even what are some helpful things to keep in mind about giving advice if you do so.

This week we're discussing different forms of motivation, specifically being goal-oriented or process-oriented. We get into why we work so differently, and how we try to figure out what works for us, as well as navigating the pressures of how we feel we "should" work.

In this episode we're talking about commitment, but with a twist. We delve into ideas of how commitment (and related phobias) also is relevant to career related reflection, and discuss ways in which we experience said commitment phobia in our own lives. P.S. Per usual, there is a side tangential rant (this time relating to bachelor parties). P.P.S. Ironic that we talk about commitment phobia in our tenth episode! :) Head over to our Instagram to be notified of new episodes and find out more about us and our thoughts on life!
