In this episode, we discussed the perils of becoming an adult. And the brighter side of becoming an adult.
Adulting is HARD.
We can all agree on that. It's even harder for younger people just getting into all this adulting business.
The thing with adulting is that no one really has it figured out. We are all trying to find our way through the best we can.
Sometimes we fall short, we make mistakes, but we move on nonetheless.
But adulting can also be a beautiful thing, with some joyful moments, learning new things, experiencing growth, and finding fulfillment in our lives.
In this episode, Eddie and I give you some HARD truths about adulting no one tells you about but also some bright things that make it worthwhile.
Tune in and let's know if you agree with them and if there's more you can add to the list.
