Hello. Swell. So with me today, I'm very excited to introduce my friend, and this is going to be the first of 30 or so interviews interviewing my fellow seniors, senior friends before we graduate, which is in t minus 331 days. So I just want to start by asking if you could tell me your name, your major, and one non academic thing you've done throughout your time here at UC Berkeley. Yes. My name is Grace Armstrong

Chatting with Grace about life as a soon-to-be graduate at UC Berkeley

Post-graduate future

Do you think they're just going to fall into your laps? Are you focused on just yourself? What are your thoughts on relationships and children? Do you plan on having children? Or is that like a. Let's wait and see? Just curious. I want to hear your thoughts. Thank you for listening to me on this. Well cast

I am curious because I guess you guys are obviously Gen Z and elder millennial. Obviously, you know, been working a lot longer. Ironically, also applied to and got into UC Berkeley MBA program, but decided a different path. Like, was always my dream to go to school in California. So kudos to you guys for actually making it through. Just curious. Like, so what are your thoughts about working post, you know, you know, post graduation?

So this isn't Grace, who I was just interviewing, but we were just kind of talking about your response and it brought up an interesting discussion in terms of relationships during college, after college, as well as people in our generation and our views on having children, which is, I don't know if you want to say what you were talking about. Yeah, I found your question really interesting

One could be, like, very negative and thinking AI will replace all of what we do, which I think, in reality, it's gonna make us extremely more productive in, like, the workforce. And I think some people hypothesize that AI could lead to shorter work weeks, which would give us more free time and maybe be able to work on fun, creative projects, like swell podcasting. Yes. Yes. Yeah

Had to throw this out there really quick. Ladies, I know I'm not your mom, but that's never stopped me before. I want to tell you how very, very proud I am for the judgment that you have in focusing on yourselves before moving to that next phase. If you spread yourself too thin, then some of the areas that you're striving to perfect aren't going to make it. So you really do need to focus on yourself right now. So again, kudos to you
