49. The purpose of different people in your life

And we're back (sorry for the unannounced break)! In this summer episode we recap our thoughtful weekend with some new friends. We then go into how we all seek support from different people in our lives regarding different manners. Why is it so important to have different people of different "purposes"?

  • 48. Childhood friends & knowing yourself

    26:51|
    In the middle of life crisis and asking yourself why you're doing what you're doing we've come to realise that your childhood friends will always have the "real" view of who you are. They never saw you as a corporate worker or that you working in an office was a given, so why should you? For this summer episode we go a bit deep into how we're thankful for these relationships in different ways.

Amanda shares about how she has struggled to work with something where she has not felt interested in the skills she was learning, nor in the industries she worked in. She asks the question how do you choose your job? Do you choose it based on what it teaches you, or the industry you're in? For her, neither of these two aspects were present at her previous job.Roos brings us a half-year dating update, and shares how she is dealing with heartbreak. The sadness she has felt the past months has turned out to be surprisingly positive and given her a boost to find her way back to art.

    ... It's just a hypothetical question, chill out! No but seriously, in this episode we try to dive into a subject we're very new to - finance. We've both gotten information from different sources and we're trying to gather our thoughts about how the rapid tech development, and the distribution of wealth that it leads to, affects the world. Next week we'll get a glimpse from Almedalen and how AI and the tech development is being discussed there. We're so very excited for that!

In today's episode we're going back to basics, and you can kind of see it as a little "filler episode", since we're taking a break in our normal series based episodes. Today we're getting much more personal, talking about our living situation and asking the million dollar question; Can you live with a close friend without ruining your friendship??? Well, listen to find out...

So we decided so share our own experiences with how much financial knowledge you need to have before starting a company. Spoiler: not that much! So much you can learn as you go. Speaking of finances, Amanda gossips about the raise she got at work and shares that it makes her exciting to get a better grip on her personal expenses and general life admin, and Roos shares about a book release they have been to together.Contact us at:roos@famacommunications.comamanda@famacommunications.comFollow us on @the_gossip_office on Instagram & TikTok
