To mark the end of Q1 and the Spring Equinox, we’re taking a moment to reflect on our intentions and themes for 2025—checking in on how things are unfolding since our Portal to 2025 episode back in January.

Kelly shares how her focus on health and wellness is evolving, while Karen dives into transmuting emotions and turning insight into action.

TL;DR: We’re feeling grounded, hopeful, and aligned—and we hope you are too.

In this episode, we're breaking apart the idea of having a "portfolio career". What does it mean to have one, is it more than just a buzzword? What is the portfolio career's relation to creativity and capitalism? We're doing what we do best- yapping- and figuring it out as we go. Thanks for being along for the ride.
