Advice for Ambition

This week’s episode will focus on COVID-19, which is affecting a large percentage of the world right now. I will be addressing the recent attacks on Asians around the world, how important your voice is, and things to keep in mind during this difficult time. Things are changing by the day and many countries have a lockdown or required quarantine to flatten the curve of COVID-19 cases. Another very important issue that more people should be discussing is the increasingly difficult job search for the graduating class of 2020. I know people who have lost their jobs as well as their internship/full-time offers so I hope something will be done to help alleviate some of the stress that this class is going to face, especially with our weakened economy. Thank you for your time listening today and I’ll see you back next week.
