THE STRUGGLE TO MAKE IT BEFORE 30| ARE WE AGING PEOPLE OUT BEFORE THEIR TIME?
from Someone Had To Say It · host LA and Tope Doks
Somewhere between Instagram highlight reels and unsolicited timeline advice, turning 30 became a crisis. In this episode, Olaoluwa and Temitope unpack one of the most unnecessary sources of anxiety in a generation — the idea that if you haven't figured it all out by 30, you're somehow behind, late, or running out of time.In this episode we discuss:Why do people act like turning 30 is entering senior citizenship?How much of the "I'm already old" narrative is actually a social media creation?Why do we celebrate people who make it early — but quietly ignore late bloomers with equally remarkable stories?Is it even fair to expect a 25-year-old to have the results, the clarity, and the composure of someone twice their age?This episode is for you if:You've ever felt behind simply because someone your age seems further aheadYou're in your 20s or 30s carrying anxiety about a timeline nobody actually agreed toYou know someone who needs permission to stop panicking about their ageYou've celebrated an early success story but never stopped to ask what the pressure behind it cost🎧 Listen on :🎙️ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/someone-had-to-say-it/id1798080321📺 Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/J-taZteR5wUAre you where you thought you'd be at your age — and does it actually matter?
