In the second episode of our miniseries ‘Tough Talks’ Thea + Claire are tackling one of the most pertinent issues of our generation: existential dread. Join us as we get vulnerable about the tail spin period of life that is your late 20’s. 

We examine the ‘quarter life crisis’ and the astrological concept of Saturn Return to highlight just how complicated your 20’s really is. How do we escape the grip of comparison when it is stealing our joy? What is passion and how do you find it? How do you know that you are, really, living for yourself? How do you stop yourself from becoming your own worst enemy? Join us as we stumble our way through these questions, sharing some all too personal anecdotes to try and make sense of it all. 

‘Tough Talks’ is a miniseries of the GMS podcast. Thea + Claire will be delving into the conversations which are hard to have. Coming to you cross-continentally, we can promise vulnerability and an air of pretending to know what we’re talking about when we’re actually the people who need the advice. Our aim is speak openly about topics many of us shy away from for fear of being wrong. 

Disclaimer: We want to reiterate that we are not professionals; take what we have to say with a grain of salt (especially ‘our unsolicited advice that we should listen to ourselves’ section). We are two young women with certain lived experiences, but acknowledge that our experience does not account for that experienced by everyone. It is vitally important to us that we acknowledge our privilege in having the ability to speak about certain issues. As always these are complex and nuanced issues that are multifaceted in every respect. If you are struggling, we encourage you to seek advice from a health professional.
