3 Cocktails In

Ever found yourself caught in a whirlwind of holiday mix-ups and flexible schedules? Well, you're not alone! Stacey kicks off our latest episode with a riveting tale of her adventure at a Chris Stapleton concert, featuring stellar performances by Little Big Town and George Strait. (GS was the actual headliner, but not who she wanted to see the most :) Plus, an unexpected cameo by baby Sawyer adds an adorable twist to our chatter. From golfing escapades to a blissful day in pajamas, we reminisce about our holiday weekend and how the weather played a surprising role in shaping our plans. Kitty also proudly flaunts her new Gustavus alumni sweatshirt, adding some cozy charm to our conversation.
Have you ever wondered how mid-50s college graduates navigated their career paths? We get candid about the diverse journeys and experiences that have shaped our professional lives. We offer insightful advice on managing the anxiety of landing that “perfect” job post-graduation and stress the importance of taking those initial steps, even if they aren't passion-driven. Childhood dreams and early play activities make a nostalgic appearance as we share how our youthful aspirations influenced our career trajectories—and how integrating passions into our jobs can make all the difference.
What jobs would you absolutely dread doing? Inspired by our observations in high-end Vegas stores, we dive into a lively discussion about roles we’d rather avoid, like luxury store security guards. We touch on the mundane yet surprisingly appealing aspects of simpler jobs, like grocery cashiering, and the efficiency of self-checkout lanes. Our episode takes an exciting turn with thrilling tales from high-pressure environments, including emergency rooms and police ride-alongs. Wrapping up, we reflect on the significance of networking, patience, and personal growth in discovering one’s true passions and strengths. Tune in for a mix of laughter, nostalgia, and valuable life insights!
