Being a law student or a med student may feel like its your entire world, but it isn't. Life will continue to move on and throw you difficult challenges and tough times. G & A discuss resiliency and how they have been working through hard weeks and finding new perspective.
PSA D&D listeners!!! The podcast equipment has been working against us these last few weeks. Our audio board will only record G's audio over bluetooth and not through the USB, thus there is slight static on her end! Trying to work on it!!
