×Hi friends! Lily here <3 This episode is really important. In today's convo, I share why it's time for me to take a step back. Then, I share a re-run of my testimony (posted on Jan 19, 2025) which is one of the most important episodes on the 80/20 catalog. 80/20 is and always will be something I'm most proud of. It's been an honor to host conversations that inspire & encourage you. This started as an outlet for me to share the things I've learned, and over the past 4 years, we did exactly that. We've grown together, and you are the reason I am who I am today. We spent a LOT of time chatting about building a community, sharing your story, and how your 20's is all about finding balance but it never actually exists and how that's okay because we're all just figuring it out. Now it's your turn. If you haven't acted on the things we've talked about, now is the time!! The coolest part is that you're ready. YOU are your own greatest teacher. I love you lots and let's talk again soon. <3 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices…
