A podcast about navigating post-grad, moving to new cities, making and sustaining friendships, careers, jobs, and learning how to be a 20 something-year-old with Lara Ortiz de Zarate and Kaila Kolodkin
where to even begin...we are catching you guys up on so much: Kaila's birthday/4th of July weekend, Lara started her new job, Lara also spontaneously went to the keys with a friend Kaila introduced her to a week prior to going to the keys, and someone or some people may be open to potentially, possibly the idea of going on dates (?). Anyways, we've also decided that we are going to be living life for the plot. Listen to the episode to find out what we mean by that. also follow us on insta: _adult.or.not_
On this episode, we have our friend Colleen joining us to talk about everything social media: growing your platform, creating content, and comparison. lots of laughs and random stories to share. be sure to follow Colleen on tik tok and/or instagram @colleenmadden5
we will never be able to be consistent with these episodes. Nonetheless, lara and kaila are catching up on the last month which included kaila visiting home for 2 weeks, lara flying to kaila's home to go and see the indy 500, our new profound love for Formula 1 racing and SOMEONE GOT A NEW JOB. very exciting things to come. follow us on insta @_adult.or.not_
To say we are excited about this episode would be an understatement. This week Lara and Kaila discuss friendships in college vs. post-grad, managing long-distance friendships, values to look for in friend, and also when it's probably a good time to cut off or take a break from other friendships. Not to mention the traumatic experience Kaila had with a cockroach and the fact that Lara has still not gone near mayo. Lots of laughs in this episode, let us know what you think.

A bit of a lighthearted episode for you all. This week we're discussing irrational fears...take a guess as to go cries if you put mayo in front of her and will not eat chicken. Anyways we also get into actual fears and some ways we all can try to work through them. All in all, it's a weird one but what's wrong with a little weird now and then.
WE'RE BACKKKK again lol. Back on the podcasting train covering the busy weeks and events Lara and Kaila have had including skydiving, bad bunny ass shaking, and quarter-life crises. We're also talking about mental health, how to recognize stressors, managing our mental health, and finding/being a supportive friend. Let's PIBE if we make it to next week's episode.
everybody knows their first job out of college most likely isn't what they are truly passionate about or intend on staying in it for the entirety of their career. in this episode, lara and kaila discuss everything from first jobs out of college to finding our passions to salary negotiating to tik toking on the toilet and we hope you're here for it just as much as we are. be sure to follow on ig: _adult.or.not_

We're back baby!!! After many life decisions, cross country moves to Miami, career changes, and a new co-host, adult or not is back with our newest episode. We are SO excited for you guys to meet Lara and dive in DEEP in what life lessons we've been learning during this season of post-grad life.
let's learn to invest in experiences more than things...I mean are you honestly going to remember that one trip to the store vs taking a spontaneous day trip with your favorite people? Also we are talking about how dating and job hunting/interviewing are actually quite similar. Let us know how you feel about that. Lastly, owning a dog in college can be challenging. Many things to uncover here.
alright guys so we're getting close to graduation...anyone else totally filled with anxiety and excitement and worry all at the same time? yeah same, but it's chill because Emily and Kaila are talking about helpful ways they try to not let those emotions get in the way of the rest of the time we have left in college. also p.s. if you have any book or hobby recommendations, send them our way:) ok go follow us on ig: adult_or_not
