180. "Your 20s are NOT your best years" ft. Dr Meg Jay

In this episode we are joined by clinical psychologist and author of 'The Defining Decade' to talk about all the frustrations, stressors, misconceptions and hard moments of our 20s and why it's only going to get BETTER from here. We talk about:

• Shifting from a 'what if' to a 'what is' or 'what else' mindset
• Why we fear uncertainity
• Milestone anxiety
• Sliding versus deciding
• Catastrophic thinking
• Insecure and anxious attachment styles vs. insecure and anxious moments
• And so much more

Listen now to hear all of Dr Meg's amazing advice and hear a bit about her new book, coming out next month.
