Need a Drink?
by Erica Naylon
Welcome to Need a Drink? Each week, Erica sits down and gets honest about how her mid-20s are going. From figuring out WTF she's supposed to do with her life, being single (and loving it), navigating her new home in NYC, and everything in between. Maybe she remembered the time her ex-boyfriend cheated on her and needs a drink about it, or maybe she's having a self-care week and needs a drink about that. Either way, let's sit down, grab a drink, and talk about it. Because life shouldn't be laughed at alone.
