Today's episode is a random concoction. I unpack my current movie obsessions, the subtle art of venting vs. complaining & why perspective is quite literally everything. Plus, the underrated elegance of living below your means and why it’s possibly the best financial (and mental) move you can make.
Catch you in the episode,
Jess xo 🌍🧘♀️💸
There are basically three really big decisions you make in your early life that will influence your success, health, happiness and overall quality of life. I chat about each of them.
I hope you enjoy this one,

After diving into Jordan Peterson's 'Beyond Order: 12 More Rules for Life, it's time to shamelessly question my sanity.
With 8 juicy questions from this book, together, we can check in on our psychological stability. Who needs therapy when you have a podcast, right? 🤷♀️
📚 Quick Book Blurb: 'Beyond Order' is Peterson's sequel to '12 Rules for Life' – it delves deeper into the human psyche, elucidating the balance between chaos and order. Peterson offers a roadmap to navigate life's complexities, emphasizing the necessity of structure amidst uncertainty.
