No one has it all figured out in their 20s—so let’s talk about it. 20 Sum Things is my space to explore the highs, the lows, and everything that comes with being a modern-day 20-something. Across 20 episodes, I dive into topics every young adult can relate to—relationships, trauma, self-discovery, and more. Sometimes it’s just me sharing my thoughts; other times, I’m joined by a friend for an open and honest conversation about what it means to navigate life when you're still figuring out who you are.

In this episode, I peel back the layers of political apathy, disillusionment and the very real fatigue that comes with trying to care in an increasingly chaotic world. Why do so many of us feel disconnected from politics? Is it because the system feels rigged, irrelevant, or just plain exhausting? Whether you’re politically plugged in or perpetually turned off, join me as I unpack the ways politics intersects with entertainment, culture, and personal values — and how that shapes the way young people engage with it (or not).

In this raw and unfiltered episode of 20 Sum Things, I’m joined by Hugo for a deep conversation about sex. We dive into hookup culture, turn ons, turn offs, body counts, and navigating the ever-important topic of consent. But it doesn’t stop there. We also explore the darker corners of our relationships with sex, including how trauma, shame, and even self-harm can show up in the most intimate moments. In a world that teaches us to perform pleasure instead of actually experiencing it, we’re learning that what the birds and the bees never taught us was how to feel safe, seen, and satisfied.

Is marriage the ultimate goal, or just a social expectation? What red flags should we look out for before saying "I do"? And are wedding vows just a cute Instagram caption, or do they actually mean something? In this episode, I’m joined by Jevene as we unpack the pressures of marriage, the warning signs we often ignore, and why this commitment is more than just a big party and a ring.<br />
