Thanks for the shout-out, Molly McPherson! And even when we think we've found the perfect job or situation, the world will change around us, and we'll be seeking clarity again.

This list! I am a comms director for a small public school and often share tips with our senior class, but THIS LIST has some amazing takes on surviving your "next phase," & thank you for addressing the "COVID" in the room for these students. It was a game-changer that we are still adapting to and recovering from.

Thank you for sharing! My heart still hurts for my HS class of 2020 & 2021 daughters. The Covid kids deserve grace.
