Is making friends important at work? Many of you have asked us about workplace friendships, and in this episode we are exploring what defines friendship at work, why is it helpful, how to get to know someone personally and why some people would choose not to make friends.

NGL, will adulting ever end??

School teaches us many things.. except to adult.
Adulting is REALLY tough. There's no curriculum, sem breaks, or cheat sheets. We suddenly need to learn how to do well at our jobs, pay bills and and loans, care for aging parents, and stay in touch with our friends - all at the same time.
If you're confused about how to handle money, relationships, friendships and work in this new phase of life - we are too! Hear Natasha, Zelanie and Yuhan share how they're (still) trying to figure out adulting in their 20s.
