On today’s show, I’m speaking with David. David and I were classmates back in university, which is where we met back in 2010. After graduating he went to work at an alcoholic beverages company and became the youngest manager the company’s ever seen. But after grinding for 6 long years, he realized that he needed a break and spent a year traveling, meditating, and spending time with family. He’s currently in the middle of his MBA and through this conversation, we speak about his journey over the last decade.

On today’s show, I’m speaking with Ahona. I met Ahona back in university in 2010. She studied English in college and was by far one of the singers I’ve had the chance to listen to in person. Over the last decade, Ahona has followed a path in academia - getting a master's in Anthropology and becoming a teacher, which she absolutely loved. She’s now pursuing a PHD while also trying to find the space music has in her life. In fact, if you wait till the end, there’s a little surprise! But we start off at a rather interesting place - which really got me thinking - why she listens to the podcast and how it’s led to some interesting realizations

In our conversation, she tells me about her days as a school teacher and how those years led to some bigger questions that led her down the path of rural development.
