Dear Joylena, part two

Dear Joylena, part twoJoy and Elena lifestyle, lipstick, literature, and much, much more.Tune in!

Thank you all for tuning into the Girls’ Club podcasts, and for thinking with me about the profound importances of friendship. I so enjoyed meeting so many of you at the Girls’ Club Getaways. After two conferences, a book launch, a stomach flu, and an international flight, I am exhausted but happy and thankful.

Things we chat about in this episode:

what could we do to better prepare young people for the challenges of the world

How do you know if you’re settling?

How we chose our careers

the books we loved as children

What lipstick/gloss colors we wear

why (or why not) to pursue higher education

Someone asked us what books we loved when we were young… we loved this question! We listed off a number of books we loved in the podcast, so I thought I would attach links to a few of them here! You can hear more about why we love them in the podcast.
