Do you feel like an adult? If you're like me, the answer is probably: Not always. Sometimes that's a good thing -- we may feel childlike when we play -- but sometimes we use "I'm not an adult" against ourselves. We have so many internalized rules about what it means to be an adult. Adults know how to cook. Adults keep a budget. Adults don't have debt. Adults stay married. Adults know how to drive. Adults can take care of themselves. When we don't line up in these ways, we feel less adult. It feels awful.
In this episode, I show the power of expanding our thoughts about what it means to be an adult. In this episode:
🌟 The difference between biological age and the age we feel
🌟 How your thoughts about adulthood can keep you in a fixed mindset
🌟 More empowering ways to think about adult human life
