Nursing, Content Creation, Finding Your Passion, Hustle Culture & more w/ Selene Wang | #2

In this episode, we had Selene Wang, a multi-faceted individual who has this positive glow around her. She works as an ICU Nurse, regularly creates content on the side, and is also pursuing a Master's degree in Nursing.

We learn about how Selene manages to tackle all 3 of her current pursuits, some of her influences which not only led to Nursing, but also Content Creation, and we spend a good chunk of time discussing the challenges of balancing hard work, patience, and emphathizing with all sides of "Hustle Culture" - something we had to actually define during the podcast
