Navigating the Maze of Your 20s

Your 20s can be a decade filled with confusion and stress due to the absence of a clear playbook for this phase. Unlike structured educational paths from childhood to graduation, the transition to adulthood lacks a clear trajectory, leading to diverse life paths for individuals. The expectation to meet societal milestones like career success and relationship achievements adds pressure, often conflicting with the personal exploration needed during this uncertain period.
