Hello you lovely people!

This is our 26th episode of the 'Finding Our Feet' Podcast!

This week on Finding Our Feet, it’s just Sam and Becca - with a special guest host, Rebecca Royle - stepping in while Sean’s away on an acting job!

Rather than skipping a week, we wanted to do what we do best: talk honestly. We chat about life after graduation, navigating the gap between the jobs you want and the jobs you need, and what it’s really been like trying to find work in the months after leaving uni!

It’s not an interview - just three recent grads figuring things out in real time. Expect tangents, laughs, and some very real conversations about pressure, comparison, money, creativity, and learning to be okay with not having it all mapped out yet!

As always, we round things off with our quiz - because even when life gets existential, we still need a bit of chaos!!
