S6:5 EP81: Live like an Oxford Student: Michaelmas, Books, and New School Year Energy

It's September and this time of year means 'back to school' - whether you're a student or not, we can all benefit from the fresh start a new academic year can offer. Bring on the hot coffee, boots, books, course lists, blank notebooks, new pens... On this episode Katie looks to Oxford student life for a model on how to live like a student no matter your age or stage in life. We'll also discuss some of the charming unique traditions for Michaelmas (St. Michael's Day). Lots of good advice, ideas, and inspiration for capturing that new school year energy!
