From savouring your morning coffee to getting lost in a good book, Bianca lays out the blueprint for rediscovering the joy in everyday moments. Welcome back to The Twenties Detox.

To begin, Bianca starts off by telling us all about her trip to Florida with her friends as well as her Italy trip. She was so excited to explore the great lakes and visit her Nonna's hometown, but guess what? Total bummer alert—her luggage didn't make it to Italy :/ Ever had that happen to you? You buy all these cute outfits, all ready to show them off, and then bam! Disaster strikes. But hold up – Bianca had a realization. She was like, "Hey, in 20 years, who the heck cares what I wore in Italy? I'll remember the amazing conversations I had with the people on the tour, the overwhelming emotions I felt seeing Nonna's childhood home, and the sheer beauty of those lakes and mountains. That cute dress? Not gonna be a memory worth keeping." And just like that, she moved on. In the past, going with the flow (which always involves change) felt impossible to do. As a person so used to rigid routines conditioned from school and work, "letting go" was one of the hardest things to do for Bianca. In this episode she will share the revelations she had along the way to develop this better mindset, as well as the 4 main benefits of how to improves our life in our 20s by going with the flow of life.
