The August Archives

If college doesn’t kill you first, the loans will

Welcome to this episode of The August Archives, where we explore topics that matter to Gen Z. In today's episode, we'll discuss whether college is worth it anymore for our generation. With rising tuition costs, student debt, and a changing job market, many young people are questioning the value of higher education. We'll dive into these issues and explore whether college is still worth the investment.

Self-help culture is the quickest way to hate yourself

In this episode, we explore the dark side of self-help culture. While many people turn to self-help books and resources to improve their lives, some argue that this culture can actually lead to feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt. We'll discuss the unrealistic expectations and comparisons to others that self-help culture can create, and how it can actually lead to a cycle of self-criticism and self-loathing. Join us as we delve into this important topic and explore alternative ways to build self-compassion and resilience. Reach out to me at: @aug_archives  :)

You should choose community over competition.

In this episode of the August Archives, I share my personal experience with embracing the philosophy of "community over competition." And explain how I used to see others as competitors, always trying to one-up each other and win the same clients or accolades. However, over time, I realized that this mentality was not only draining, but ultimately unproductive and unfulfilling. Reach out at aug_archives on instagram and twitter!
