The 20 Something Playbook

Chapter One: Choosing Your Hard in Your 20s


Listen Later

Hosted by three sisters in their 20s, The 20 Something Playbook is your guide through the good, the bad, and the ugly of this defining decade.


In this intro episode, Madison, Ava and Elle break down navigating the cross roads they've faced in their 20s, and "choosing your hard" - the mantra for making difficult decisions. We get into the mission behind The 20 Something Playbook, what to expect from future episodes, and talk over each other a little too much - it's an epidemic, we know.


We have a lot of exciting guests and conversations on the horizon, full season is available NOW! New episodes every Tuesday
