Katie + Kenz read and discuss the book "The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter—And How to Make the Most of Them Now" by Meg Jay. Jay is a psychologist who realized that 20-year-olds are setting themselves up poorly by neither thinking critically of their goals nor planning for them prior to turning 30. It was awesome... and makes us question every move we make at this point in our lives. Join us for our thoughts about the book and, of course, a whine about it session.
