Hey you guys what is up welcome back to the gals on the go podcast is me

Brooke here today and we have such an exciting episode we are going to be talking with Lauren burger the intern queen the career queen

about all things job related. I know it's a totally totally strange time for the job market especially

with the pandemic and just everything's kind of flipped upside down. I think a lot of people are needing a little bit of

encouragement. So I'm so excited to be speaking with Lauren today. But before we hop into that I wanted to do a little catch up with you guys and

first we're starting off with our black owned business of the week. We're talking about I.A. paper

Crow when founder and creative director of Savon Anderson began conceptualizing plans for I.A. the well-being of the

earth with front of mind as an advocate for environmental justice she wanted to ensure that I.A. paper

Crow didn't perpetuate issues like climate change and pollution which disproportionately impact communities of color.

I.A. collection is defined by neutral earth tones, minimized illustrations and modern typography the collection emphasizes cards for

everyday occasions birthdays congratulations love friendships and sympathy. So I actually ordered the thank you note pack and a

birthday card so beautiful you guys I feel like this is like such high quality stationary. So if you guys are going to go to the

store and like buy some on a birthday card I definitely recommend supporting I.A. paper. Crow they also have journals pencils candles and

the quality is so nice and my order was packaged so beautifully. So if you guys want to check them out you can go to I.A.P.P.C.O.

So it's a Y.A. paper dot C.O. I.A. paper dot C.O. And I know they've Instagram and all that stuff too so definitely go support.

And now we're going to hop into the highlights and low lights.

I mean I guess like a little selfish because I think army all a little selfish during this time but feeling just strange I guess with the pandemic in general.

I I'm like on two different ends of this because on one hand I feel kind of guilty because I just moved to New York City and I feel like I'm not doing enough like I even got like a comment on my

TikTok the other day was like do ever leave your apartment and I was like thinking about I was like damn like I guess I'm really not doing enough but then I think about it on the

other end and I'm like no I'm being smart you know it's pandemic I don't need to do anything too wild and too crazy not to say that I haven't like walked around of course I do and I have also you know I would say like one to two
