Welcome to Closing 20s! A podcast about the wisdom we have accrued over a decade. We’re Maria Carmen and Bea, two friends who met in their early 20s and who may or may not be in denial about turning 30 next year.
We’re closing the decade by sharing the lessons, thoughts and (mostly) feelings of being 29. And everything that happened in the last decade to get us here.
What can you expect? 10 episodes (see what we did there), each on a specific topic—home, career, friendships, dating, and more.
We would love it if you joined us in celebrating - and saying goodbye to - the wild, wonderful time that is your 20s.
In the final episode of the podcast, Maria Carmen and Bea close the journey with an intention setting practice. They share with each other what they want to call in for the next decade, their hopes and dreams, their intuitions and their relationship with the 'void'. Where do they want to live? What energy do they want to call in? Tune in (for the last time) to listen.
