  • Episode 005 - Career
    Mar 17 2020
    What we have learned about Careers: It is easier to give career advice then to follow it for yourself. Don't put your career in someone else's hands. Create a plan, and make it clear what your goals are. Many jobs over your life; one career. Money isn't everything in your career. While it helps, doing something you have passion for can change everything. Work and life harmony means that sometimes your job will take away your personal time but at other times you are grabbing it back. It will never be in balance. The best thing you can ever invest in is yourself. Always be learning.
