THERE’S nothing like a global pandemic to make one reflect on life and notice things that might need a little finetuning.
Being in lockdown and trying to make sense of the world in this time of worry and fear may have left you feeling like you need to make some changes, find a new direction or prioritise different things. But where do you start?
If you need a little help or motivation, podcasts can be a great resource. They’re free, informative and you can tune in when you have time. You simply need to find ones that suit your needs.
Here’s a selection of a few that are worth a listen.
