Tennis, Tension and Turmoil - TFS #7

Tennis, Tension and Turmoil - TFS #7

This week's mid-week podcast is all about the ups and downs of being a young adult in today's modern (and harsh) world.
Where there's a constant grind and hustle, with wins and loses coming each week, sometimes life can catch up to you and make you burn out.

We start off the podcast talking about what we got up to on our long weekends, like taking a break from work and just taking some time for yourself.

We also end up looking at Roger Federer's ankles, discuss tennis, the competitive sports mindset and Krishn's career as a professional sportsman.

We also look at some of the more difficult things in life, like teenage angst, being the eldest sibling, forcing yourself to grow up and how taking risks can benefit you in the long run.
