Ep. 2 - Nobody Warned Me About Getting Older

from Jessi Anyway Hosted by Jessi Jacobus

What happens when your brain still feels 25, but your body starts sending you very different messages? In Episode 2 of Jessi Anyway, Jessi Jacobus gets brutally honest, hilarious, and surprisingly reflective about the things nobody tells you about getting older. From random injuries, questionable hairs, colonoscopies, brain fog, and suddenly needing eight hours of sleep to realizing that staying home can be the highlight of your Friday night, Jessi covers the weird realities of life in your 40s. But getting older isn't all aches, pains, and wondering where your skin went. Jessi talks about having a smaller circle, caring less about other people's opinions, appreciating the people around you, and finally realizing that you don't actually have to have life figured out. She also shares the things she'd tell her younger self: stop worrying so much about what people think, try new things, appreciate the people in your life, take care of your body, and most importantly, don't wait until you're ready. Just do it. Because maybe getting older isn't about slowing down. Maybe it's about finally becoming confident enough to live life your way. Life's good. Life's messy. None of us really have it all figured out. But anyway... this is Jessi Anyway.
