The ‘Sanity & Self’ app, though it’s geared for women. I had been a skeptic for apps for overall wellness, but this app is a game changer for me.

It addresses ALL the points you listed above (you can pick a theme) with podcasts and exercises - and (for an additional cost) even 1:1 coaching, as they find the right coach for you. 10/10 recommend.

Hey Everyone!
I’m coming up on one year of working in consulting post under grad in a financial services vertical. I know I want to transition to corporate strategy down the road, but don’t have much interest in financial service strategy. Should I try and switch into a more applicable practice such as M&A or operations? Will I be able to break into corporate strategy without any past experience in that industry? I want to avoid getting pigeonholed into FS, but with COVID, don’t want to leave.
