2022 Update: Break, Therapy, NVC, COVID

Episode Summary

On this episode, we give you an update on where we have been since the last epsiode. We give a detailed breakdown of the trials and tribulations we have been through during each phase of this break.

Irene has been working dilligently to try and complete her prospectus and become a full-fledged doctoral candidate. Our heroes also discuss their experience learning about Non-Violent Communication and the difficulties about having to adjust to COVID as graduate students.
