What was life really like in 2015 compared to 2025?
At 17, weekends were simple: bike rides, football, family dinners, late-night walks with friends. At 27, life feels heavier: cost of living pressure, doomscrolling, short-form content, friendships fading, and a constant sense of being “behind.”

In this episode, I reflect on how the world changed in just 10 years — and why so many of us feel disconnected, stressed, and burnt out. I’ll break down:

• The shift in friendships, family, and community.

• How social media went from memes to a life support system.

• Why ambition now feels like burnout.

• The fear around money and choice overload.

• And how we can still rebuild connection and meaning in real life.

It’s not about dwelling on the past. It’s about learning how to live differently in the present.
