Summary

Hey BA fam! It's time for another BA roundtable. Chris Browning of Popcorn Finance and Yanely Espinal of MissBeHelpful are back and this week, we’re diving into everything from the burnout of multitasking to the impacts of California wildfires and shady home insurance practices. We tackle economic disparities, climate change’s effect on vulnerable communities, and pop culture drama—like Bad Bunny’s authenticity and Hollywood’s ongoing Me Too reckoning. Plus, we explore journaling for mental health, the magic of minimalism, and frustrations with AI in customer service. Don’t miss our take on financial literacy education and navigating gender dynamics in the workplace. It’s real talk, fresh insights, and a sprinkle of inspiration—don’t sleep on this one!
