healthy but leveling up with the 80/20 rule ft. Lily Rakow

Healthy But Human

In this episode, Lily Rakow and I talk about navigating your 20s and how to become your best self in 2025 with more clarity and intention, even in the waiting. We dive into the struggles of balancing school, career goals, and personal growth, especially during seasons of waiting and uncertainty. Lily shares her thoughts on building meaningful friendships, leaning on community, and finding balance with the 80/20 principle—because life shouldn’t be all hustle. If you’re feeling stuck or unsure about what’s next, this conversation will leave you encouraged and ready to take on the new year with a fresh perspective!
