Yes, adulting is not easy but we can all do… something!☺ We check in with Dawn Tan, Senior Psychotherapist at Eagles Mediation & Counselling Centre as our first guest — to find out how we should manage our mental well-being amidst the pandemic. Find out how to deal with the ebbs and flow of adulting, how NOT to be overwhelmed, and the importance of taking a 1-2hour timeout for self-care. Plus, we get some much-needed advice on understanding relationships (yes we asked about dating) and answer your questions on voice notes!
