Things we thought we’d have figured out by 27

Show notes

At 27, we thought certain things would look very different.

We thought we’d be further along in our careers, own property, have children, and be in a completely different place financially.

In this episode, Kudz and I have an honest conversation about the lives we imagined for ourselves, the expectations we put on our twenties, and what it feels like when reality doesn’t quite match the picture in your head.

From careers and money to buying a home and starting a family, we talk about where we are, where we hoped we’d be, and learning to navigate the space in between.

If you’ve ever looked at your life and wondered, “Is this where I’m supposed to be by now?” this conversation is for you.

Welcome to Uncomfortable on Purpose ; conversations about growth, and becoming.

Let’s talk about it: What did you think your life would look like by 27?
