Ep 51 In Spite of Ourselves
Ellen and Heidi talk about their quiet entry into 2022 (going to the movies in the middle of the day!) and the shows they have been watching including: ‘Station Eleven’; ’14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible’; ‘Killing Eve’; and ‘Queer Eye’ (00:40). They then take questions from Laurel and Mel. Laurel has been a social worker for the past 10 years. She is ready to shake things up, though transitions make her anxious. She wants more creativity in her life and is thinking about a career that entails home design and improving spaces. She wonders how (and whether) to make the leap (9:25). Mel is currently between careers and although she sees lots of options, she is at a loss what to pick. She was a music teacher for five years in Europe and is thinking of picking up that thread by offering to coach music teachers. She wants an independent creative career that also has financial stability. She is on the fence about making the leap (18.33).
