feel weird right now.
I can get an education and I know I'm heading to something and it just kind of like puts a bandaid on it, really.
I'm not saying grad school is not the right decision.
I'm not saying that it's not a good thing, but it's not the right decision when you're trying to figure out when you're trying to find yourself.
And that's kind of where you're at right now.
I think your undergrad degree could possibly lead to a great job that you really love.
You say you love working with people and you want to help people.
There's a lot of jobs out there that you could get with a four-year degree that you have right now without having to go take on the commitment and the time and the effort of a grad degree.
And I know, Ken, you probably have strong opinions on this.
Yeah, I'm with you on that, Ken.
And I also think we should give her from paycheck to purpose because I think there's a lot of like feeling of lack of purpose right now.
You're feeling confused and frustrated that where you're working is not where you envisioned.
And I think you can get to a much better job that's more in line with something you'd be excited about.
And I think, too, you could work in a field that maybe you do eventually want to get a grad degree, but test the field first.
And so if I'm in your shoes, I'm not going back to school yet.
I'm taking some time.
I'm taking the assessment.
I'm reading Ken's book and then I'm finding a job.
that's exciting to me right now in this moment, paying off my student loans.
And then we can talk about grad school.
