I love hearing about the different paths that Dr. Saldivar’s guests have taken in their lives. It’s a great reminder that there is no one or right way to do things and you don’t need to have everything figured out in college.
Dr. Saldivar does a phenomenal job bringing real success stories, along with the struggles, to our vast community.
I really liked this episode. One thing that really stuck with me was when Ken Miller mentioned that you need to learn to say no, which is something I still struggle with and need to work on. I learned that it’s ok to say no, you dont need to commit/ feel pressured to say otherwise. Saying no does not make you a bad person when you’re just trying to protect your peace.
I think that you do a great job and the podcast help on having a idea on what to expect.
