APPLY TO EXPAND     Good morning, Rat Girls! Today, I opened up about something that's been bugging me for almost a year now, inspired by a family member who's been struggling to make a change in their life. You know how frustrating it is seeing someone you care about stuck in a rut, right? And it hit me – a lot of us might be going through the same thing, no matter how successful we are. So, if you're feeling unhappy with where you are – whether it's your job, your relationship, or just life in general – this episode is for you. We talk about how important it is to take responsibility for our own happiness and stop waiting for the 'perfect time' to make changes. It's about recognizing that each day we choose to stay the same, we're moving further away from where we really want to be. So let's rip off that Band-Aid and start making those tough but necessary changes to get our lives back on track. Love you all, and see you in the next episode!   What You'll Hear: Understanding the Struggle The Importance of Change Taking Responsibility for Your Happiness Steps to Make a Change Conclusion and Final Thoughts Let's Connect: @paige_vandy | @unemployed.podcast     APPLY TO EXPAND   Morning Dose Daily Newsletter : Join The Newsletter
