[SOLO] How the pandemic has shifted my priorities & mindset
2020 has been so tragic in many different ways. We have lost loved ones. People - especially women - have lost their jobs. Family members and couples were separated due to travel restrictions. Our host Thamina has had her fair share of tough luck the first half of 2020. She was so so close to finally fulfilling her biggest dream of being able to move back to the United States through a company transfer and moving in with her cross-continental long-distance partner. Then a hiring freeze and visa ban hit and Thamina's dream burst like a soap bubble. Her mental health was really suffering. Luckily, things got better in the second half of the year. Thamina shares how the pandemic turned out to be somewhat of a blessing in disguise due to all the important lessons she was able to take away from this past year, which resulted in an invaluable shift in priorities and mindset.
