Dear 20 Year Old Me!

Almost every Response Able conversation ends with the same question: what would you tell your 20-year-old self? In this special episode, Nikki revisits eleven guests’ answers to that question, back to back. What emerges isn’t a list of regrets. Most guests wouldn’t change their story. Instead, they’d go back to be kinder to themselves, braver about following their own instincts, and a little less worried about the future. In this episode:  Tylea Herweynen on enjoying the moments between the hustle  Emily Snowberger on following your gut without justifying every decision  Giselle Le Aupepe Bruce on following your curiosities, because tomorrow always comes  Yolisa Palesa Tsoaeli on chasing what you’re passionate about, 100%  Neeraj Naik on going all in on the job search and staying open to anything  Dylan Zraket and Priya Merchia on the power of how you speak to yourself  Richard Gorvett on giving yourself grace and being honest about how you’re really doing  Ian and Natasha Miller on starting small, and why “oops” might be the best word there is  Loredana Padurean on being proud of who you were at 20 Each answer comes from a full-length episode.
