Hi !
This is the 1st episode of Timesheets, the series where I document journeys into adulthood and make entries about navigating through this odd experience.
I thought of launching the series with an episode dedicated to commencements and new beginnings. I'm on a different path in my life and I thought it would be helpful to revisit some of these speeches. This episode consists of my favourite speeches, some thoughts and advice which I'll probably keep forgetting but I must keep in mind.
Do give it a listen !
