In this episode we discuss a decade that can mean multiple things at once: our twenties. One on hand, our twenties can be a time of exploration and experiences that we won’t have once we are more settled down in life. This is the time to move to Costa Rica and work as a scuba diving instructor before the window of opportunity closes. However, in Meg Jay’s book The Defining Decade, she argues that our twenties are a lot more significant than we realize. We discuss her arguments around picking the right career, partner, and lifestyle in your twenties to build a strong foundation for yourself later on down the road. As three women at the halfway point of this “defining decade,” we take a look at our own lives to see the impact of our decisions.
