You can learn SO much from desperation. For one thing, it helps you see what you truly value, take action, and feel things that might be difficult to feel! All the while though you need to trust your instincts and not lower your standards.

I shared three stories where I may have been tempted to lower my standards or not trust my instincts but I did, and it worked out very well. This episode was also pretty funny! Hope you enjoy! :D

Story 1: Getting locked out of my apartment after editing the podcast. Security guard told me I had ten minutes to finish up and I did in time! Then I got locked out of my apartment haha.
Lesson: You do not want to get back to your apartment super late!

Story 2
: I was basically starving and hadn't eaten any food for about 40 hours. I was very focused on school and didn't have time or money to eat. Then one of my friends came to the rescue :)

Story 3: Today I started recording the video for this podcast and my phone is at 1% now! This is because right now I am trying a new challenge where I can only use my phone on one charge throughout the day.
