Description

NOT just a rant…this episode contains ACTUALLY useful points to choose between college, freelancing, entrepreneurship & travel (or doing all of these?!) — from someone currently *trying* to do all! :) this video took over a year to finish so you get to see my perspective shift from 19 to 20 years old! 


BONUS included: networking tips, my GAP YEAR, personal examples from my freelancing experience before uni, & university right now. I took a gap year before university! so I also reveal whether or not that gap year was worth it 👀


this episode is meant to be a community discussion starter on the opportunity costs of college & uni, so please be brave and share your own experiences with college & life in the comments! I’d love to hear your thoughts. 


NOTE: Becoming DISScomfortable is NOT going away...these ✨shower thoughts✨ are just a new side quest I'm exploring haha. Join the community by subscribing!
