Podcasts about Adulting

My guest for this and next week's podcast episodes is my sweet friend, Mags Ohmes, who joins me to share the first part of her story. Mags grew up in a beautiful setting in Wisconsin and treasures many happy memories from her early childhood, especially those spent with her siblings. Yet beneath those good memories, her parents carried their own unresolved brokenness into family life. While they loved their children, they were unable to teach many of the relational and life skills Mags would later need. As she entered adulthood, those gaps contributed to unhealthy patterns and choices that brought significant pain and heartache. Everything began to change when Mags met friends in college who knew and loved Jesus. She saw something different in their lives, something authentic and compelling that drew her heart toward Him. As she came to know Christ for herself, a new journey began. God started the work of healing the wounds of her past, teaching her healthier ways to live and relate to others. Mags's story is a beautiful reminder that God can redeem even the places where we feel most unprepared and lead us into wholeness and hope.   To inquire about counseling, email Louise at Louise@louisesedgwick.com.

Hannah and Violet get into people-pleasing, dating addicts, dating sober men, falling in love with potential, and the embarrassing things we do when we're convinced a situationship is going somewhere.

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott return after an unexpected break to talk honestly about something many neurodivergent adults know all too well: what happens when life leaves you with nothing left in the tank. From 72-hour work weeks and launching new projects to forgetting to record the podcast altogether, they reflect on the mounting pressure of adulthood, the fear of burnout, and the guilt that can come with taking time for yourself. Simon opens up about juggling the demands of the Autistic Culture Podcast Network while struggling to switch off, while Jordan shares how gaming, photography, and embracing his inner child have helped him navigate periods of stress and boreout. A funny, vulnerable, and deeply relatable episode about burnout, adulthood, and remembering that sometimes the most important thing you can do is give yourself permission to simply be.Our Sponsors:

For decades, adulthood followed a familiar script: finish school, land a job, move out, build a life. But today's economy is rewriting that story. With youth unemployment at 13% and more young adults living at home longer, the old milestones of "adulting" are shifting...for young Canadians and the parents supporting them. Career advisor Devon Turcotte and family counselor Alyson Schafer have answers for families looking to navigate this new reality without friction, guilt or outdated expectations.

Everyone thinks men fall in love because of chemistry. According to science? Not even close.Violet breaks down what actually makes a man go from interested to invested, why so many women accidentally sabotage the early stages of dating, and the biggest mistake people make when they confuse attraction with commitment. From the science of attachment to the psychology of pursuit, Violet explains how men really bond, what makes them stay, and why forcing a relationship almost always backfires.If you've ever found yourself wondering, "What are we?" this is for you.Thank you for supporting our sponsors:Nutrafol: Receive $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you visit Nutrafol.com and enter promo code DADDYISSUES.Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at SHOPIFY.COM/daddyissuesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Gutierrez turns on the funny in her second collection of essays, Adulting for Amateurs. If you've ever made a mix tape, this book is for you.

Thisweek on Khandaan, we're covering a little bit of everything. Amrita returns from her accidental social media detox with glowing skin, better sleep, and a newfound appreciation for blissful ignorance. Then it's on to the movies. We discuss Chand Mera Dil and why its young-love-meets-adult-responsibility story left us feeling older than ever. We talk Ananya Panday's performance, the strange online discourse around the film's dance sequence, and whether Lakshya can successfully pivot from action star to romantic lead. Sujoy reports back from Drishyam 3, exploring how the latest chapter shifts from thriller to character study and asks what life looks like after Georgekutty gets away with everything. Asim recommends Dacoit: A Love Story, a Telugu romantic thriller starring Mrunal Thakur, and wonders why Bollywood still seems unsure what to do with one of its most compelling actresses. And finally, we dive into Zombeeid (or Zombie Eid), Pakistan's first zombie movie. Despite the online backlash, we found a surprisingly entertaining genre film packed with zombie mayhem, steroid-fuelled horror, Pakistani humour, and some genuinely impressive gore on a modest budget. Plus: A varied episode, but exactly the kind of film-and-pop-culture catch-up we love doing.

Lange aufbleiben, unbegrenzt Taschengeld und jeden Tag Pizza: Hört man sich unter kleinen Menschen um, ist Erwachsensein ein erstrebenswerter Zustand, der gar nicht schnell genug erreicht werden kann. Doch spätestens, wenn die erste Steuererklärung ansteht, das Geld knapp wird und die Tellerberge bis zur Decke reichen, gerät das „Erwachsenwerden“ zu einer Bedrohung. Dabei gilt längst nicht nur als erwachsen, wer mit Mitte 20 Haus und Familie hat. Vielmehr haben sich die Erwartungen an "den Erwachsenen" in den letzten Jahrzehnten kontinuierlich verschoben. Ist Erwachsenwerden überhaupt noch eine sinnvolle Kategorie, wenn die wirtschaftliche Verhältnisse den Auszug von Zuhause irrational machen und 50-jährige die gleichen Sneaker tragen und Mangas lesen wie 12-jährige? In dieser Folge sprechen wir über Adulting, Infantilisierung, Mündigkeit und die Frage, ob das Ideal der Reife jemals erreicht werden kann.Helft uns dabei, diesen Podcast zu produzierenAnekdotisch evident kostet im Moment mehr, als es über Crowdfunding einbringt – ihr könnt uns dabei helfen, das zu ändern.

Let's talk about… what happened after my date from last week? Did he redeem himself? or did my ick grow stronger? Are we upgrading from enemies to lovers or taking a step back towards enemies to strangers?

Would you fake a friendship for the sake of your relationship? That's the question after a listener writes in because her boyfriend is pushing her to bond with his friend's girlfriend. Plus, we uncover the boomer complaints younger generations secretly agree with, and talk about why so many adults are still relying on Mom and Dad for a financial assist. Adulting is not for the weak.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Noah and Zoe have been "just talking" for a while. They like the connection — but they're not ready for the commitment. And honestly? A lot of us approach marriage and family the same way.In week 3 of Adulting with Jesus, Pastor Steve looks at what Jesus actually said about marriage and family — and why the cost of commitment is exactly what makes it worth everything.We'll look at what Jesus said in Matthew 19, what Paul reveals in Ephesians 5, and what Psalm 127 says about children — and why all of it points to the greatest love story ever told.Whether you're single, dating, married, or somewhere in between, this message is for you.

Steve Jobs promised the iPhone would change everything. He was right — including the way we think about dating, marriage, and having kids. But some things haven't changed.In week 3 of Adulting with Jesus, Pastor Mike explores what God's Word says about marriage and family in a digital age — cutting through the cultural noise of Pinterest boards, dating apps, and the pressure to have it all figured out first.You'll walk away with three things Jesus wants you to know about marriage: it's optional, it doesn't require much, and it's one of the best pictures of the gospel you'll ever experience. Plus — why the Bible's view of children might be the most countercultural thing you hear all week.Whether you're single, dating, married, or somewhere in between, this one's for you.

In this episode, I'm catching you up on my day and everything that's been on my mind lately. I talk about my trips to DC to spend time with a man I really like, and how I'm trying to be more intentional about dating, relationships, and where I invest my energy.I also get into some real-life adulting after finding out my rent is increasing. And as if life wasn't busy enough, I'm also getting ready for my upcoming trip to Puerto Vallarta. Between travel planning, dating, work, and everyday responsibilities, I'm trying to find balance while still enjoying the moment.Don't forget to subscribe, like, and give me my 10s in the comments!X: @LNwithSylvesterEmail: LateNightwithSylvester@gmail.com

Violet is back with another Series of Unfortunate Events, and this time a blind date turns into one of the strangest nights of her life. There's a driver, a bodyguard, a hopeless romantic billionaire, and an unforgettable conversation about AI that somehow makes modern dating feel even more depressing.Love may be blind.But apparently it also comes with a security detail, a free trip to Europe, and the possibility of accidentally becoming someone's sixth wife.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ginny Yurich sits down with pastor, author, and podcast host JP Pokluda for one of the most practical and unexpectedly hopeful conversations parents of teens and young adults need to hear right now. JP shares the story of graduating college completely lost, chasing relationships, parties, and approval, only to discover that real fulfillment looked nothing like what culture promised. Together they talk about modern dating, loneliness, work, anxiety, social media, friendships, marriage, purpose, faith, and why so many young adults feel overwhelmed by adulthood itself. JP talks honestly about the confusion so many young adults feel after high school and college, why modern dating is exhausting, why work matters more than people think, and what actually helps people build a meaningful life. From “follow your passion” culture to hookup culture to the pressure of figuring out your entire future at eighteen, JP offers a grounded, deeply refreshing perspective.

Adulthood is supposed to feel like freedom.But for many people, it feels like pressure, confusion, exhaustion, and constantly trying to keep up.From career uncertainty and financial stress to emotional burnout and social comparison, adult life today looks very different from what we imagined growing up.In this first episode of Understanding Adulthood, we explore why adulthood feels overwhelming even when people are trying their best. The conversation reflects on unrealistic expectations, the emotional weight of modern life, and why so many young adults silently feel lost despite doing everything “right.”A thoughtful discussion on redefining success, navigating uncertainty, and understanding that struggling with adulthood does not mean you are failing.Expert: Dr Purnima NagarajaHost: SandySound: Mahesh R.Producer: Archita Puranik

We've never been more connected — and yet loneliness is at an all-time high. What's going on? And what does it have to do with growing up in your faith?In week two of Adulting with Jesus week 2, we dig into one of the most underrated parts of spiritual maturity: friendship. The people around you aren't neutral — they're either sharpening you toward Christ or slowly pulling you away. Scripture has a lot to say about that, and so does Jesus himself.In this message, we'll explore:* Why real friendship is harder (and rarer) than ever* What God's Word says about the kind of friends who shape a good future* The humbling question: are you that kind of friend?* And the best news of all — you have a friend in Jesus who stuck closer than any brother ever couldPulled from Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, and John 15, this message is for anyone who's ever felt lonely in a crowded room — and for anyone who wants to be the kind of person who changes that for someone else.

Do you have a 2am friend? You know the one — the person whose name you'd dial at 2 in the morning when you're stranded on the side of the road, and you already know they'll show up. If you can't think of a name, this message is for you.Here's a startling truth: Americans have never been more connected — and friendship bankruptcy has never been worse. Nearly 1 in 4 young adults between 20 and 24 have zero close friends. Among Gen Z, it's 27%. We're lonely, and most of us won't even admit it.In week two of Adulting with Jesus, Pastor Timothy digs into one of the most breathtaking friendships in all of Scripture — Jonathan and David — to pull out timeless, practical wisdom on how to forge forever friendships.You'll discover:* Why God designed you with a human-shaped void that only relationships can fill* Why you literally become like the five people closest to you* What Jonathan's radical act of "binding his soul" to David teaches us about open-hearted devotion* A simple IVT framework: Intention, Vulnerability, and Time* What a covenant friendship actually looks like — and why it costs something* And ultimately — the friend who tied himself to you first, at the crossYou are the friend of Jesus. Start there — and you'll find everything you need to go love others the way he loved you.

Live from Crown College, Josiah and Micah hit the campus to ask real students real questions about adulting in 2026. From overloaded schedules and financial stress to people-pleasing, expectations, and chronic loneliness, this conversation gets honest about what young adults are actually facing—and how faith, mentors, and community can make all the difference. In This Episode, We Talk About: Time management in college Why schedules feel overwhelming How a simple weekly calendar can be a game-changer Finding the right mentor What to look for in a mentor How to invite someone to speak into your life People-pleasing & boundaries How mentors help call out your potential and correct unhealthy patterns Why “no” is still a loving and God-honoring answer Money & budgeting anxiety Feeling financial pressure in a shaky economy Fixing our eyes on God's provision and peace Managing expectations in relationships Why unspoken expectations lead to frustration “Clarity is kindness” and how to communicate directly Chronic loneliness in Gen Z & Gen Alpha 63% report experiencing chronic loneliness Practicals for finding friends and building authentic community on campus Levels of friendship: surface, seasonal, and lifelong About us: www.youngadults.today | www.fyi-podcast.com

Violet is back with another Series of Unfortunate Events, and this time she's unpacking her “Coming to America” origin story. From her first deeply questionable attempt at fitting in, to the accessory that made her feel like the coolest Russian alive, to one night where being included maybe should've come with a warning label, this episode is peak Violet: embarrassing, unfiltered, and one bad decision away from a Dateline reenactment. Don't trust everything you're handed, don't trust gas station sushi, and for the love of God, Google first.Thanks to our sponsors:Nutrafol: Receive $10 off your first month's subscription and free shipping when you visit Nutrafol.com and enter promo code DADDYISSUES.Shopify: Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at SHOPIFY.COM/daddyissuesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
