How do we find fulfillment in our day-to-day jobs? In this episode, Kristy and Angie talk about the career fog that many of us Millennials are trying to find a way out of as we grapple with imposter syndrome, quarter-life crisis, and the crippling fear of failure and social rejection. Added bonus of some ASMR and coochie-cleaning hacks.

Takeaway:
- There is no perfect job and we need to look at both extern and internal factors to our dissatisfaction
