Imagine someone gave you both the time and money to do a course, anything you desired. Would you learn something just for fun? Would you expand your current skills? Would you try something you never did before? We talk about the reasons to pursue further education, our own experiences, and list some points to consider when deciding what course is right for you. Mercedes explains the benefits of ditching "safe" studies in favour of play and experimentation. Thinking of going back to school to change career? Ylva shares how volunteer work and short internships can give you valuable hands-on experience before going all-in. Other topics in this episode: snowboarding, building career capital, prototyping your life, and how our brains don't like uncertainty—except in play.
