I've gathered my favourite lessons and advice for myself for you in this short episode where I talk about new beginnings, never writing yourself off and being great.

I'm joined on this episode by a former colleague of mine Adanma and we talk about moving on. She left her role in the organization (where we met) to pursue her creative passions so I wanted to talk to her about knowing when the right moment to move on is. We get into her discoveries about who she is professionally, how she's never had trouble moving towards a purpose and accepting that sometimes the creative process can look like watching all 7 seasons of Parks and Recreation...for the 4th time.

While 2020 was rough for a lot of people, those with existing mental health issues had to navigate their pre-existing conditions with the uncertainty of where the world was, and still is today.

Andrew is one of those people who loves to turn ideas and thoughts over and over in his head to try and make sense of them and one of the things we've discussed at length is how people behave online.

He took these questions to someone who knows the internet (& Beyonce!) pretty well.
