26. 10 London Must-Dos + Life Lessons You’ll Actually Use
Welcome back to The B-Student Podcast with your host Betsy Gardner — where we explore the B-Side of people’s stories: the lessons, curiosities, and moments that shape who we become and how we show up in life, leadership, and business.
In this special Study Abroad episode, Betsy takes us to London, England, her former home and one of the cities that most transformed her personally and professionally. She shares her Top 10 things to do in London — from hidden museums and cozy theaters to parks, pubs, and perfect martinis — plus the deeper life lessons she learned living abroad.
You’ll hear how living in London taught her to:
- Slow down and savor life’s beauty
- Lead with curiosity instead of certainty
- Build belonging in unfamiliar places
- Find transformation through challenge and community
- Embrace both/and thinking instead of either/or
