Ep. 122 Living With Roommates vs. Living Alone: What No One Tells You

In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the biggest living decisions you face in your twenties: should you live with roommates or live alone? I share stories from my own experience,  the real pros and cons of both options, and what it takes to be a good roommate versus a bad one. Whether you’re craving independence, trying to stretch your budget, or figuring out how to not lose a friendship over dirty dishes, this episode will help you think about what living situation makes sense for you in this season of life.

Key Takeaways:

• Living with roommates can save money and provide built-in companionship
• Living alone gives you total freedom, peace, and control over your environment, but comes at a price
• A good roommate communicates, respects boundaries, and follows through on shared responsibilities; a bad roommate does the opposite.
• Safety and lifestyle matter as much as finances – know whether you thrive in companionship or solitude
• You can change your mind multiple times over between living alone or with other people
