For most of lives so far, we’ve looked forward to getting older and becoming an adult. Now that we’re ‘here’, that anticipation seems to be quickly replaced by anxiety and the fear of growing old (aka “FOGO”). In this episode, we chat through some of the pressures of growing up — Feelings of needing to accomplish as much as possible in our 20s, opportunity costs, and biological clocks. We also discuss why FOGO is so common in modern society and in contrast, all that we’re still looking forward to.
