Episode 3: Summer Opportunities
In this month’s episode of Untangle, our hosts, Jeffrey and Krisha, are joined by guest speaker and podcast lead, Sophie! With the uncertainty that has emerged with the COVID-19 pandemic along with the pressure to maintain productivity, this summer break may not be as relaxing as expected. We cover topics such as applying for summer positions, taking summer courses, and obsessively browsing through Linkedin.
As young people, we constantly push ourselves to work hard and often compare ourselves to those around us. It is important to remember that we all work at different paces, and in different ways, so we must remember to do what’s best for us.
