Why are young people sad and lonely? Probably because we have no rent money or career. How is anyone supposed to be mentally ok if they can't afford to live?
Join Gael and Kayla, two new twenty-somethings, as they navigate the transition from teenagehood to young adulthood. Together, they explore topics you'll undoubtedly struggle with. Whether it's the realization all your friends are in credit card debt, the humbling discovery that your roommate sucks, or trying to life a good life without a college degree. The goal? To make our 20s less shitty because we all deserve the opportunities, life skills, and resources to have a successful career and life.

should you confront that one person who’s been bothering you or ignore it in the name of protecting your peace? we talk with a forgiveness expert to find out what it truly means to protect our peace and if maybe the modern obsession over cutting people off is only making us feel more lonely. through reflections on our own qualms with those close to us, we navigate the delicate balance between saving a connection or choosing to let go and how to make the decision.
