Adulthood Pending

For our last episode of season 3, we talk about burnout. Being in our 20s, we sometimes feel as if we always need to be doing something in school, at work, or even just on weekends. But this idea of constantly having to do something can very easily lead to burnout. Join us as we each share our own experiences with burning out both socially and professionally, how we try to stop ourselves from feeling that way, and what we do to get out of our slump. 

We’ll be back late fall for season 4 where we’ll continue to share candidly about all the highs and lows of navigating adulthood. Thank you to all of our listeners and for all your continuous support throughout our journey! During our break, you can catch up on the rest of Adulthood Pending or follow us on social media and be the first to hear of any and all updates.

Together, we chat about Maya’s mental health journey and what mental health means and looks like to her.

Since the start of the season, we’ve embarked on many changes that we’ve touched on in previous episodes but never dove into. With Brittanee starting med school, Annalise moving back to Boston, and Kimi working from home in a new city, we wanted to spend some time discussing how we’re navigating these new experiences. Hear about the competitive nature of med school, what it’s like acclimating to life in a new city during the pandemic, and the pros & cons of remote work life.

We’re dedicating this episode to anyone else who just started school, moved out of their parents house, is working their first full time job from home, or is going through a big new chapter in their lives!

Now that we've been podcasting for over a year, we wanted to dedicate an episode so you can learn more about us and what we do outside of this podcast. In this episode, we discuss our hobbies, how we fit them into our day, and how we feel about the question “what do you like to do for fun?”. Join us as we reflect on how our hobbies have changed over time and how similar all of our hobbies were as kids!

In this week’s episode we dive into our different faiths and beliefs. Annalise talks about growing up in a Buddhist household, Brittanee discusses being a non-denominational Christian, and Kimi opens up about how she grew up Catholic but no longer practices it today. We also explore how our family has impacted our beliefs, how we practice it today, and how religion plays a role in our relationships. 

We’re going to be taking a mini break for the holiday season and will be back with a brand new episode on January 10th. We’re excited to see you all in the new year and continue sharing our adulthood journey!

Last season we brought on Annalise’s sister to discuss her journey through dental school and how her family influenced her decision to follow that career path. In this episode, we bring on Brittanee’s sister, Emiko, to talk about getting her masters in Asian American studies at UCLA, what led to that decision and how it differed from her original intentions for applying to grad school. Emiko graduated from Scripps College in 2020 and explored different paths before deciding on majoring in English with a focus in creative writing. Tune in to hear Emiko share what it was like exploring and navigating uncertain routes both in college and post-grad, as well as what it’s like being Brittanee’s sister and why Emiko intentionally avoided taking any classes with her in college.
