Hi everyone!!
Welcome back to Theory & Practice. After taking a short hiatus, T&P is back with a new direction.
Starting today, all of our content will focus on two areas of the twenty-something experience: career & relationships. Every week, expect an episode to help you build purpose in work and love.
To kick-off this new direction, today’s episode is with the OG of twentysomething psychology: Dr. Meg Jay. A best-selling author & clinical psychologist, Dr. Jay joins T&P to talk to us about how to make the most of our twenties.
