šŸ“¢ šŸ“¢ šŸ“¢ UNIQUE EPISODE FOR BADASS YOUNG ADULTS šŸ“¢ šŸ“¢šŸ“¢

Hi loves -- ever feel like youā€™re ā€˜failingā€™ at adulthood? And youā€™re supposed to be sunny and perfect AF and have it ā€˜all figured outā€™ now? (But you likeā€¦ totally donā€™t and something itā€™s SO BAD IN YOUR OWN HEAD and you donā€™t even want to tell anyoneā€¦ cause they might get scared). Anyone else ever feel like youā€™re desperate for people to get how independent you are and treat you like the ADULT YOU ARE ā€¦ but also secretly feel like youā€™re bad at so many thingsā€¦ and you need SO MUCH HELP (because life is overwhelming, like all the time)?? And ummā€¦ now itā€™s winterā€¦ badum. WELCOME TO THE DUMB MYTH OF ā€˜ADULTHOODā€™. This episode is a love letter to you -- a tired, sensitive, badass young adultā€¦ who wants to reclaim your time, energy and LIFE. Itā€™s time to demystify what I call ā€œthe lie of adulthoodā€ (Iā€™ll break it down). In this episode of realness, youā€™ll hear me talking about: why itā€™s not your fault things suck, why goals are tricky (and my own sad story of the biggest baddest goal ever achieved), drinking + anxiety, sensitivity as a superpower, how if you want to ā€˜save the worldā€™ youā€™ve got to include yourself, and so much else! I love you! Be fierce, be soft -- and trust yourself -- youā€™ve got this, dear one. XO, from a fellow sensitive, messed up, complex, wonderful feeler (+ big sister) -- Eliza
