Today we try to answer why the question, “what do you want to be when you grow up?” is stressful to young people everywhere. Finding a path in life is an ongoing journey throughout one’s life--but yet we tell young adults that they need to answer that question immediately after they graduate high school. In today’s episode, we discuss the emphasis our culture has on work, The American Dream, gap years, and more.

Everyone needs a support system—friends being the most important. But what happens when a friendship becomes less supportive and more of a contest? Today we talk about competitive friendships; why they happen and what to do when you find yourself in one.

“I’m not like most girls.” This phrase has caused a lot of hurt for women everywhere. Today we explore why this trope and attitude is damaging and why some girls say it. We also introduce two new segments, Tessa’s rant and an Episode Queen.

Today we talk about the downfalls of social media—and it’s savior. Tiktok is more than just an app, it’s a community, an artistic platform, an escape and a form of activism.

Dating in the modern era has changed—now we turn to apps and social media to find love and “dates” as we know them have changed. But is this change the mark of a better more open dating scene, or is romance dead? Join us as we talk about bad dates, boys, historical pressures, and romance!

College is many things—exhilarating, telling, awesome, and educational. But it isn’t always easy. In our first episode, we are talking about some of those less than perfect college experiences.

Co-host Tessa just graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder and is starting to enter life after college. Together we explore the parts of college that no one really talks about.
