@jeffowski yeah each person is a whole entire person.
@jeffowski this is extremely eye opening for me. Is there an official source I can consult? I would like to read more
@jeffowski thanks, I also found this one. Gonna read both. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5644395/
@ypanocayo @jeffowski i too had no idea and this makes a lot of sense, sadly. This changes my perspective a bit too, admittedly.
@jeffowski Even if you didn’t move back with your parents. I never did, but some of the risks I’ve taken in my career such as going freelance straight out of university would not have been possible without that safety net existing and knowing that I had a plan B if it turned out to be a disastrous choice.
