Tired In My Twenties
Figuring out adulthood one episode at a time. It’s where we remind each other, “You're okay. We’re all figuring it out. And we can live our lives how we want.” Every other week join me contemplating life in my 20s or me with guests in their 20s that have experienced anything from changing their field right out of college, moving for their first job, or dating after a long-term relationship for tips that we’ve learned along the way and also some reassurance that you’re just where you need to be.
