I'm Back!! After an extended pause that turned into a bit of a hiatus, its finally time to return to the pod. When I started The Let's Get Candid Podcast almost 3 years ago I never really planned to take breaks but when you're a mid/late 20s girl rediscovering yourself while growing your career/business its easy to get lost in the shuffle. So I decided to be honest with myself and give myself some grace so I can come back refreshed for Season 2.
But before we jump back in here's a little insight into where I've been, what's been going on and a catch up with me solo episode. If you need a break too, this is your sign and I hope you all enjoy the episodes to come!
