I think this idea that people have life figured out, or that they haven't more figured out than you'd expect, actually stems from childhood. We're just constantly bombarded with this idea we need to pick some path, and often that's before we've even explored any paths. And at the point at which you have the least data on what you want to do, then that flows into college as well. I'm currently writing an article about this, but i think this broadly speaks to something which i call cultural gravity.
There's an endless sea of advice online.
Whether it's from a vague Twitter thread or a clickbait blog post, the advice sounds catchy, but if we're honest... often holds little water.
However, we all know from experience that the right lessons, sometimes even sitting in plain sight, can genuinely change the trajectory of one's life.
In this episode, Cal and Steph discuss the few pieces of advice that they think matter most and shouldn't be ignored.
