Feeling that constant fear of missing out? You’re not alone. This week we’re unpacking FOMO in your twenties –  This week, we’re spilling tea on BFF drama, a near kidnapping, and why no one has life figured out in their twenties.

We unpack how social media and comparison culture keep us chasing the next big thing instead of enjoying what’s right in front of us. Are our hormones and bigger frontal lobes making women more prone to overthinking? And is gratitude the antidote to feeling like you’re always behind?

Get ready for unfiltered chats, friendship truths, and a fresh perspective on why your twenties are messy, magical, and nothing to FOMO about.
