Connect with us :)Hot Girl Summer may be out, but Rich Life Summer is officially in.And no, we're not talking about money.In this week's episode, Laura and Amanda dive into a transition that doesn't get talked about enough: growing out of your 20s while still feeling very much young.Somewhere along the way, the trends, habits, fashion choices, and weekend plans that once felt exciting start feeling a little less... appealing. Not because we're getting old, but because we're evolving.This episode is for all of our fellow in-betweeners who have ever looked around and wondered if they're the only ones who no longer want to wear the trendiest outfit, stay out until 2 a.m., or chase every new thing social media tells them they should care about.Together, we discuss:• The fashion trends we've officially retired - crop tops (cough)• Why being cold for an outfit is no longer an option• The activities and habits we've outgrown• Why slowing down feels surprisingly good• The pressure of keeping up with trends and timelines• What a "rich life" actually means to us• Why deeper connections are replacing surface-level experiencesThis isn't a serious episode. It's a fun, honest conversation about growing up, evolving, and realizing that maybe the best parts of life aren't the loudest ones.So grab your coffee, get comfortable, and join us for a conversation about style, friendships, joy, and the subtle transition of becoming more yourself.New episodes every Thursday.Support the showWait...
