Should I get a degree? Should I not get a degree? Does it have to be a fancy business school? On this episode we talk about how important it is to identify your own &#34;Why&#34;, about the burden of choice and explore why it is so hard to forge your own path amongst the career paths that we see laid out in front of us.Does this resonate with you?

&#34;Hair is just hair&#34; – or at least that&#39;s how it should be in our opinion. On this week&#39;s episode we discuss whether or not your surroundings should be allowed to comment on a radical haircut, or care about the hoodie you decided to wear to work today. Find out how we have been influenced in our hair style choices in the past – and why outer appearance sadly still is a relevant topic on a podcast about authentic success and finding your own path.Share your hairy anecdotes with us on Instagram or Facebook @successandotherlies or send us an email at successandotherlies@gmail.com
