"Let’s Talk Reality" is the podcast for anyone navigating the ups and downs of life, especially in your 20s. Each week, we drop honest and relatable episodes to make adulting feel a little less overwhelming. Whether you’re in your 20s or just remember the struggle, these conversations will hit home.
$5,000–$7,000. That's what the average 26-year-old spends between Memorial Day and Labor Day on summer "extras." Weddings. Trips. Dinners. Weekend stuff you got talked into.
This episode is the playbook for saying no to the wrong things so you can say yes to the right ones — without the guilt, without burning friendships, and without ending summer more tired than when you started.
What's inside:
- The honest dollar math of summer in our 20s
- The 3 mental traps that keep us overspending
- 3 permission slips (skip, scale back, host instead)
- The one-question test for every invite the rest of the year

#56: Money Mindset in Your 20s
A quick, honest breakdown of why budgeting in your 20s isn’t about restriction — it’s about freedom. I share how shifting my mindset changed everything, why your 20s are for planting financial seeds, and why you don’t need to have it all figured out to start.

#55. Staying Grounded
Mental health has been on my mind lately. With political noise, personal stress, and everything feeling a little heavier, I’ve pulled back from social media and focused on protecting my peace.
In this episode, I talk about staying informed without being consumed, how anxiety in our 20s is often self-inflicted, and why taking control of your mental health matters—especially before stress spills into your relationships. A reminder to slow down, set boundaries, and choose how you show up.
