Ep. 137 The fear of wasting your twenties — how to twenty-something

This episode breaks down why we all fear wasting our twenties. The pressure to travel, date, go out every weekend, and have life “figured out” can make it feel like one wrong choice will mess everything up. There are two sides I discuss when it comes to this fear: fear of missing the fun parts and fear of falling behind the milestones your peers are hitting. If you’ve ever worried that you’re behind, doing something wrong, or running out of time, this episode is for you. Because changing your mind, starting over, and choosing what feels aligned isn’t wasting your twenties, and this episode breaks down why.

Key Takeaways:

The fear of wasting your twenties usually shows up in two ways: having fun and hitting milestones
There is no universal blueprint for how your twenties are supposed to look
Comparison will always make it feel like everyone else is ahead
The only real way to waste your twenties is by staying in situations that no longer serve you because you’re afraid to start over.
