Did you know most scientists believe that the brain doesn't fully develop until the age of 25? Well as an almost 26 year old I thought I would give you some advise on being an adult. I have learned a lot in my 5 years of adulting so I wanted to share with you some skills that have become invaluable so you can start developing them.

In today's episode I discuss:

1. Being able to create a budget and stick to it. if you need help figuring out how to create a budget check out Episode 43 to hear my exact strategy for how I budget my money.
2. Knowing how to use a credit card, there are so many rewards credit cards out there to choose from. You're spending the money anyway, might as well get cash back or travel points for it.
3. Have 8-10 meals that you know how to make without having to look at a recipe. As an adult you need to be able to feed yourself something more than ramen so having basic cooking skills is crucial.
4. Know how to grocery shop efficiently. Learn what your staple items are and start creating a back stock when things are on sale. Compare prices, plan around sales and stock up when you can.
5. Know how to store food properly. if you struggle with using fresh produce up before it goes bad learn what veggies you can freeze or buy canned. Know what meals you can make and throw in the freezer for when you don't feel like cooking.

If you haven't already make sure you go back and listen to last weeks episode all about the things I wish someone had told me about adulting before I entered the real world. And don't forget to tune in next week for part 2 of this mini-series!
