Mind Your Career

Let's talk dream jobs, expectations & following your passion

Ep #8: In today's episode we're chatting about career expectations and sharing our thoughts on the constant cliche messaging surrounding 'pursuing your passion' and 'fulfilling your destiny'.

Is this shit really that helpful? Or does it warp our expectations and set us up for discontent? And what role does social media play in all of this? Plus Julia shares why she should never be trusted to book hotels (she might just make your next relaxing holiday destination at a corporate golf resort!)
