GeeSoldier ,

Relatable and one of my favorite podcast

I love this podcast both of them talk about lots of things from personal experiences and many things that a girl can go through in their 20's , I am still figuring out what I would want to do in my life .

Enjoy The Moment ,

Feels like hanging out with some friends

Katelynn and Alexis talk about real sh*t that goes on when entering adulthood in your 20's. Both ladies share their experiences on various topics on learning to navigate life as a 20 something. Their openness and honesty always makes me feel like catching up with an old friend that I haven't seen in a long time but can still relate to. Sometimes when you're lost, it's nice to listen to others who you can relate to so don't feel alone. I highly recommend checking them out! :)
