  • Working as a Consultant, Building Better Habits, Living in NYC, & Owning Your Career in Your 20s (ft. Colin Rocker Rice)
    In previous episodes of Graduated and Grown, we've discussed surviving your career in your 20s... working post college isn't easy and it isn't always fun (no matter how many people make their $150,000 job at Facebook seem like it), so now it's time to discuss OWNING your career in your 20s. Believe it or not, no one else can take your career to the next level, except for you. Today's guest, Colin Rocker Rice, is a Digital Strategy Consultant who lives in New York City. We had a great conversation about his career, training for the NYC Marathon, building better habits, and even advocating for yourself!

  • I Miss the Structure, Expected Next Steps and Success of College... Why is Post Grad Life Different?
    I don’t know about you, but I’m still trying to figure out who I am post grad. I’ve spent nearly 21 years of my life being a student.. and now, I’m not. In this episode, I talk to you all about my what’s been on my mind, how I need to stop comparing my identity to others, and what I miss about having that “college student identity.” I’m optimistic that as I continue to grow and experience new things, that I’ll figure out who I am, what I’m about and what my life plan is. Until then… the identity journey continues!
    This episode marks the end of season 2 (what a bittersweet feeling). If you haven't already done so, check out the other 21 episodes!!
