Some of the most important life lessons in your late twenties are often learned when life doesn't go according to plan. In this solo episode of But What Do I Know? host Chidinma A reflects on the 9 biggest lessons she learned at 29. A year that included home ownership that didn't go as planned, a layoff, and unexpected disappointments. From letting go of certain expectations and making peace with job uncertainty to redefining success and learning to trust herself more deeply, this conversation is a reflection on growing through unexpected change and finding meaning in seasons that ask for more (A LOT more). --- Connect with "But What Do I Know?"
