becoming burnt out & applying to college as a desi kid
Hi guys! I hope you can forgive me for the hiatus I’ve taken due to school stress and college applications, but I’m back. In this episode I discuss how easy it is to become unmotivated during this quarantine. As a student I share my struggles with focusing on school & life in general. I also talk about applying to college as a desi kid and how people in our community view higher education. I discuss the backlash and pressure kids may receive to attend, what I call, a “high-end college”. Tune into this episode to hear more!
