Join hosts Emma and Vanessa in navigating life and all that is your early 20's. We're here to help you take life less seriously, because let's face it, nothing really matters (but in a good way). Bad breakup? He probably sucked anyways. Want to quit your job? Do it, you'll find another one. Don't know what you're doing with your life? What's meant for you won't miss you. Life is better when you're unbothered and do what makes you happy. We hope you enjoy our conversations about life, health, college, and everything in between.
