Last week, I asked my LinkedIn and Twitter followers "What career advice do you have for young professionals?" And in this episode, I invited my friend Cyrus Sassouni to be the co-host to read these comments and share his thoughts. We also talked about Clubhouse, LinkedIn, and other social media topics. Please share this episode to your friends to help us spread the word! And if you are on Apple Podcast, please leave a review! Thank you so much!

My co-host Julien and I talked about experiential retail today and what millennials and Gen Z really want to see at retail malls. How does Pokemon relate to commercial real estate?
