In this episode of The Adulting Project, hosts Nikhil and Sharita sit down with Jillian Reilly — author of The Ten Permissions.

The conversation dives into the importance of self-permission — breaking free from the expectations of what we “should” do and leaning into what we actually want to do to create fulfilling, authentic lives.
