Proof Our Frontal Lobes Finally Clocked In

About this episode

The hosts discuss the signs of brain maturity in their late twenties and share listener stories about personal growth.

Apparently, at some point in our late twenties, our brains decided to start making better choices… and we have receipts. In this episode, we’re swapping stories about the little (and very telling) ways we know our frontal lobes are fully formed —from the way we handle conflict to the absolute thrill of canceling plans. We also read your submissions, which confirm we’re all living the same life just in different group chats. It’s reflective, a little embarrassing, and mostly just funny. Cheers to growth… and to who we were before it.
