Welcome back! After graduating college, we're socialized to fit ourselves into boxes: either you get a full-time job, or you go back to school. This leaves little room for creativity, growth, and genuine exploration of our minds and interests. In this episode, join Joy Batra and me, as we talk about exploring unconventional careers, breaking into freelancing and really honing in on the sweet spot between your creativity and intellect. At the end of the day, the thing that will give you the most value, and help you create impact is the thing you truly love. Through her new book "The Freelance Mindset" Joy beautifully outlines the path of side hustles and exploring your creative instincts. I hope this conversation helps you break the mold, take that leap of faith and invest in yourself. Love you 3 About Joy Batra - Joy Batra is a freelancer, an a lawyer and bollywood actress with her JD/ MBA from Harvard.
