The lie we all tell in our 30s...

Now that I’m 36, I’m realizing how incomplete that picture really was.In this episode of **Lost The Plot**, I’m unpacking the quiet panic so many women experience in their 30s — the feeling that somehow we’re behind, that we should have life “figured out” by now, and the surprising moment when we start seeing our parents’ lives in a completely different light.Looking back at my own mom’s journey and my own 20s, I’ve started to realize something: the version of adulthood we thought we saw growing up was often just the surface. Behind it were pivots, sacrifices, reinventions, and hard decisions we were too young to understand at the time.So why does it feel like everyone else has it together… while we’re still figuring it out?This episode is about identity, expectations, and the strange but powerful moment when you realize maybe you’re not behind — maybe you’re just finally awake.If you’ve ever questioned your timeline, your career, your relationships, or whether you’re doing life “right,” you’re definitely not the only one.
