Let's Talk About... Summer


Listen Later

 

Hello and welcome to Adulting, and the seventh episode of Let’s Talk About… a broadening of Adulting... where that was about all of the things we never got taught in school, this is almost like seminars on life; where my audience (that's you!), get to chat anonymously about things they couldn't necessarily discuss over lunch with their friends, or feel like they don't have anyone to talk to about whatever it may be. 

 

To get involved, follow me on Instagram @oenone, where every Tuesday we vote on a topic and every Wednesday we dig deep.

 

Let’s Talk About… Summer. The submission read: The feeling of a well-lived summer being underwhelming each year, and feeling disappointed.

 

I was actually quite surprised that this one beat babies, they were tying for a long while, but I personally really understood the sentiment of this submission.

 

I read this to mean, that we put so much store in summer, there is so much lore around the season, it’s the fun sexy season where nothing is off limits and the nights are long and the possibilities are endless, but perhaps as we get older, the nostalgia for that freedom we associate with summer is stronger than the truth of it, so we’re left wanting and bereft.

 

I really enjoyed recording this episode... I hope you enjoy it, too! As always, please do rate, review and subscribe!
