Security vs. Taking Risks: Alex Proba

This week, Angie and Rachel share their latest podcast obsession, Well…Adjusting. A show where award-winning comedian, writer — and past MRTW guest— Robin Hopkins, helps guests manage stress, set boundaries, and save a dime or two. In this episode, Larkin joins Robin with a simple question: how do you dress for work while still feeling like yourself within corporate culture? That question unearthed a bigger chat about insecurities, taking up space in the world, queerness and being a badass baller in all areas of your life. Listen to Well…Adjusting wherever you get your podcasts. Well…Adjusting is an editaudio original.
