Not Yet, But That's Okay: Having It All in Your 20s
In this episode, we dive into the 'race against time' many of us feel in our 20s—the pressure to achieve everything, from career milestones to personal growth, all at once. We explore why it's challenging to "have it all" at such a young age and the importance of not being too hard on ourselves for not reaching exceptional success early on. Join us as we discuss strategies for being kind to ourselves, setting realistic expectations, and working with time rather than against it to make the most of our journey. This is a conversation about finding peace with our pace and learning to appreciate the process, reminding us that kindness towards ourselves is a crucial part of success.
We open the conversation by exploring why our 20s feel like a critical period for achieving success and how this perception shapes our approach to time management and life choices. The episode takes a closer look at the stories we tell ourselves about success and the timelines we're "supposed" to follow, challenging the notion that exceptional success needs to come at a young age.
More importantly, this episode is a reminder not to be hard on ourselves. We share strategies for being kinder to ourselves when things don’t go as planned, emphasizing the importance of self-compassion in the face of perceived failures or setbacks. We discuss the power of working with time, rather than against it, to make the best of our journeys, including practical tips for setting realistic goals, prioritizing mental health, and finding balance.
