Millennials are achieving freedom with a new definition of success. Our careers, relationships, educations, and even our politics, look nothing like our parents’. We are repapering the roadmap toward our personal goals and embracing what moves us along the way. We are adopting what works and throwing out the rest. We are tired, but not worn, in our quest to get there.
We Should Be Sleeping explores the things worth losing sleep over. Each week, the hosts explore the news and topics that keep them awake. Then, guests share the intentional ways they’ve done it differently to achieve a new brand of success that's authentic, unconventional, and definitive of our generation.
Not ready for bed? Tune in, because neither are we.
