OUR HOSTS:

What we're drinking: POPPI Sparkling Prebiotic Strawberry Lemon Soda 

TOPIC: 

So many of us in our mid-20s and early-30s start to question our goals, plans, and even relationships. This process can lead to feelings of stress and uncertainty, which is often referred to as a ‘quarter-life crisis.’ 

We dive into the eight signs of an identity crisis, helpful ways to cope with this challenging time, and how to use this as a period of self-exploration and discovery. We talk about what we find supportive during these pockets of existential questioning, as well as what the experts say about how to emerge from this experience happier, more motivated, and with a greater sense of clarity. 

In this episode, we discuss:

• Different elements of identity 
• Common quarter-life crisis triggers
• Characteristics of the two main types of quarter-life crises: stability and meaning
• Getting to the root cause of your burnout 
• Questions and prompts to help guide your journaling 
• The #1 tip to reduce the cycle of unhealthy comparison

WRAP UP:

To wrap up the episode, Corinne and Natalie play Recent Obsessions. After seeing her recent Hot Ones episode, Natalie has gone down the Emma Chamberlain rabbit hole. She’s also been binging Hansen vs. Predator videos lately. Corinne didn’t believe it at first, but the SKIMS dress is worth the hype.
