685. Rethink Your Twenties: Dr. Meg Jay On What You Should Really Get Done This Decade

In this episode, renowned psychologist and author of the new book, The Twentysomething Treatment, Dr. Meg Jay dives into the complexities of life in your twenties. Meg addresses the common struggles faced by young adults, such as anxiety, depression, and the overwhelming pressure to meet societal milestones. Ahead, Lindsey and Meg discuss the psychological phenomena known as the "liking gap" and the negative skew of the twenty-something brain. Plus, discover why the twenties are a foundation-building period rather than a peak to have everything figured out. Meg also offers alternative views on medication and overdiagnosis in young adults, touching on the significant role of meaningful relationships and skill-building during this decade. Meg reminds us that life does indeed improve with age, and the twenties are only just the beginning! We also talk about: The impact of unrealistic expectations set by social media on mental health The changing societal benchmarks for major life events like marriage + parenthood The importance of intimate relationships + communication in your twenties Techniques to shift from catastrophic thinking to focusing on factual thinking The influence of pornography on young adults' perception of relationships + intimacy Building a career + life grounded in real experiences rather than fleeting desires Confronting uncertainty in personal + professional life paths Resources: Website: https://megjay.com/about/ Book: The Twentysomething Treatment: A Revolutionary Remedy for an Uncertain Age Instagram: @drmegjay TikTok: @drmegjay X/Twitter: @drmegjay Threads: @drmegjay Sponsors: IQ Bar | Get 20% off all IQBAR products, plus get FREE shipping.
