Emma Lough ,

A much needed outlook for 2020!

2020- the year of pivoting and rolling with the punches. Funemployment is an incredible reminder that there is pleasure- joy even- in the grind of it all. It sparks notions of truth, the power of chasing your dreams, and running with the best version of yourself. Can’t WAIT to keep listening!
