What is it about me???? pls 😭 We'll talk about this and more in today's episode, "Sometimes It Feels Like I Don't Exist." I spoke about this in one of my earlier episodes but thought I’d address it again because of recent conversations and new experiences ... : p New episodes every Tuesday!

Healing from Hurt | Young Adult Problems Ep. 21

3/5/2024
It's been a minute since we've chatted :' ) If you're wondering where I've been, I took an 8 month hiatus from the podcast... and life because I was going thru it tbh 😭😭 But I'm back! And as we approach the one-year mark since the beginning of what I like to call "my downfall," today's episode is all about reflecting on my healing journey over the past year. The journey was a hard one. Lots of pain, tears, and struggles with self-worth. But amidst the hurt, I formed lots of new experiences, relationships and memories along the way. It's all too much to cover in one episode, so today, I talk about the waves of life, the highs and the lows, that I navigated in the past year. p.s. hi I'm megan lol New episodes every Tuesday!

Reminiscing | Young Adult Problems Ep. 4

12/20/2022
hi!!! we made it to week 4... this weeks episode is all about reminiscing... reminiscing on times that were simpler. for me, those times were in 2018, just as i was finishing up my senior year of high school and starting my new chapter in college. there was so much going on at the time, yet none of it really mattered. it was an exciting, care-free year. but now that i'm 22 and starting to take on ✨real adult responsibilities✨, the exciting, care-free life that i was fortunate enough to experience back then is something i probably won't experience again. so sometimes i like to look back at the good ol days to get a glimpse of what life was. socials: instagram & tiktok: @youndadultproblems youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbmelLouZ0kVzOep8V-CAaA
