How often do we do things just because we think society expects it of us?  
How often do we go after things that we don’t really want?   

These questions are part of the turbulent process of trying to answer the questions: Who am I and what do I want?  

In this episode, we talk quarter-life crises. They’re definitely a thing. As ‘non-starters’ who have had many roadblocks in starting our careers, we understand the pain. It can get frustrating comparing where we are with where our peers are at - but things happens in their own time. Khema (@khema.1) & Nalanda (@jakjan.nalanda) share about social pressures that they have faced as young adults and what they have learned.
