About this podcast
The uncensored pages we never thought we’d share. Join us, Jess and Laura, as we revisit the chaos of our 20s through our very own journals. From big feelings to small feelings and everything in between, we look back on a whirlwind of a decade. Is it normal to feel like this in your 20s? Well, we’re still not sure but this is what we’ve learnt along the way.
