Twenty 'Til Podcast

What's going on 20-somethings?! Your 20s are often the first time you get to experience the mix of freedom and responsibility that comes with living on your own. In this episode, I sit down with Taylor Jourdan (@msstayjourdan) to unpack the realness of solo living - from decorating your space and paying your first set of bills to handling the late-night loneliness and finding joy in independence. Together, we dive into the lessons, challenges, and growth that come with making a place truly your own. Whether you're debating your first apartment, already in your solo era, or just curious what it's like, this conversation will give you both laughs and insights for your journey. Because in your 20s, living alone isn't just about the space you're in - it's about the person you're becoming! 

What's going 20-somethings?! What happens when your reality doesn't match your dreams, and your paycheck isn't coming from your passion?In this solo episode, I open up about the unexpected pause the Twenty 'Til Podcast took and the season that led me there. From working as a substitute teacher to feeling creatively drained and stretched thin, I share the very real tension between survival and purpose and the guilt that sometimes comes with choosing rest. We'll talk about working jobs that aren't aligned with your dreams, what the Disney/Pixar film 'Soul' taught me about purpose, and why your "in-between" season is still part of your story. Whether you're clocking in somewhere you don't love or trying to keep your goals alive after hours, this one is for the 20-something making it work - one day at a time. Together we're learning to rewrite the timeline, release the pressure, and remember: Just because it's not your dream job doesn't mean you've stopped dreaming.
