In many ways, F1 Academy is a spiritual successor to W Series, an all-female racing series that shuttered in 2022 because of financial problems. Where F1 Academy differs is that it has the financial backing of Formula 1 and buy-in from the sport's constructors, with each team sponsoring F1 Academy drivers. "F1 Academy is a really friendly environment and a bit different to when I've been in male paddocks with mixed competition. She previously competed in W Series and has enjoyed her time so far with F1 Academy, which she describes as a "streamlined" series.

A side note: planning to meet up with friends might take more effort in post-grad life, but effort is all it is. The future is something to be excited about, tooThere's no shame in finding the transition into post-grad life hard. I do believe that post-grad life can be as fulfilling as your college days.

AdvertisementDavis shared how he's grown his net worth — and why he thinks finding one's dream work can help them live their ideal life. For example, if a person retires at age 60 — rather than age 50 — then it would be much easier for them to hit their retirement savings goal. That's why Davis thinks the key is finding one's dream work. "You just need enough money to cover any shortfall between what you want to spend and what your dream work pays," he said. To be sure, finding a job — forget about one's dream job — is easier said than done in today's economy.
