Project Grownup

This week on Project Grownup we have an incredibly inspiring woman who is living proof that you CAN do it all. Joining us from London, we have the Quantum Ballerina, Dr. Merritt Moore. Merritt is beyond inspiring, she has the brains and the ballet. Merritt studied at both Harvard University and The University of Oxford, where she received her PhD in Physics. When she wasn’t in the lab, Merritt was dancing around the world with the Boston Ballet, the Norwegian National Ballet, the Zurich ballet and the English National Ballet. In 2018, Dr. Moore was awarded Forbes 30 Under 30. To top it off, she completed an Astronaut training program with the BBC. Overachiever is an understatement.

Do you ever feel like you’re old because you don’t understand certain slang? Do you find yourself googling things to see what people are talking about? This week on Project Grownup, we have a conversation with Danielle’s younger sister, Caroline, who quizzes us on modern slang. Will we prove to be in with the times, or are we already out of touch in our mid-twenties?

Our entire lives center around building relationships. It’s important to have strong and positive relationships in our adult lives, they help us grow as humans.

On the other hand, it’s equally important to cut out negative relationships. How do you differentiate between a healthy relationship and a toxic one? Is it okay to cut someone out of your life for your own well being?

Your hosts talk about some personal experiences as well as providing some key tips on how to build and foster healthy relationships on a daily basis.
