Voice of My Generation

Lena Dunham once said, “I’m more scared than most people are when they say that they’re scared. I’m like the most scared person alive.” And honestly, I’ve never related to anything more. In this episode, I’m unpacking the five things that keep me up at night: decisions, finances, other people’s opinions, failure, and the future. From being terrified of making the wrong choice to somehow being equally terrified of doing nothing at all, we’re talking about the very special experience of being in your 20s and feeling like every decision could make or break your entire life. Is it possible to be scared of literally everything and still manage to live a life? Asking for a friend (me).

What happens when you look back at the things you were once embarrassed by and realize they’re the reason you are who you are today? We’re going back to our musical theater kid roots to talk about how we met, the awkwardness of growing up, and how theater gave us the space to become ourselves.

From balancing school and life to reframing the things we have to do into the things we get to do, we’re unpacking the little mindset shifts that make a big difference.

Plus, discovering our type, discovering dyslexia, and realizing that maybe we’re still figuring out a lot more than we thought.

Macy Thompson joins me this week to discuss how she got her start in social media after having a REAL job (a foreign concept to me).

We tap into the wisdom that comes with having a fully developed frontal lobe, from much-needed financial advice for those of us who find the idea of managing money genuinely terrifying to navigating the existential crisis of getting older and figuring out how to grow up without becoming boring.

Basically, Macy is the older sister I need, and I'm here to take notes.

This week I’m joined by Maya, Maddie, and Ava who you might know as the Fat Sunday girls.

We’re talking about meeting each other in the wild, our first impressions (including who we definitely judged incorrectly). The lore behind their friendship, and how we’ve all ended up on wildly different life paths from unemployed to law school.

We get into moving to NYC, the shared trauma of NYC apartments.

How we somehow manifested the lives we’re living right now, outline a Dummy’s Guide to Manifesting, and whether manifestation is actually real or if we’re just delusional.

Of course… our love lives, because apparently we can’t have one conversation without bringing up men.

In this episode, Anna and I get into the many, many weird similarities between us… from our personalities and sense of humor to our oddly parallel upbringing & post-grad journeys.We compare our experiences moving to completely new cities after college and the weird grief that comes with leaving behind the built-in community, friendships, and version of yourself that came with college.Of course, we talk about comedy. We both want a future in it. A conversation about figuring out what comes next and taking yourself seriously enough to actually try.
