In todays episode, Hannah and Olivia discuss the effects of covid, lockdown and general disruption on our careers and our lives beyond.

We've all experienced heightened anxiety, lack of connection and more over the past two years. But we've also had to transform the way we work, and for many, even what we do. For many the pandemic may have thrown us off course, or even altered our goals and priorities.

There's some story time from us, and debate as to whether this weird old time has put life on pause, or propelled us forward...

If you're feeling the need to 'make up for lost time', you're not alone.
