GenX Adulting Podcast

In this episode we welcome Kierstin to the studio. Kierstin shares with us how she was always the quiet and shy girl through her formative years and typically internalized everything. Her mother’s battle with cancer through Kierstin’s middle school years, and eventual tragic passing when Kierstin was in 8th grade, further amplified those characteristics and as a result, she spent most of her high school years isolating in her own little bubble. She reflects on her decision to force herself out of her comfort zone as she headed into college and used the opportunities she found at Florida State University to continually challenge herself to be social. She found so much success in her endeavor that it left her exhausted and depleted and once again facing her issues. During her sophomore year, she courageously sought help and found therapy on campus which stopped her spiral and gave her space to find true healing. After graduation, we learn how Kierstin continued to challenge herself by choosing jobs related to event planning and hospitality, which led to her current position where she works various prestigious and private events throughout South Florida. We discuss authenticity in today’s current dating culture and the various challenges young women face as a result of dating apps. Kierstin also shares about her experience in a toxic relationship, and how the lessons she learned has helped her completely adjust her standards going forward. We truly value Kierstin’s trust in us that allowed her to share her story and loved learning about her amazing journey thus far. We look forward to having her as a return guest in the future!

Episode 23 - GenZ Women Series: Grace

In this episode we welcome Grace to the studio. Grace tells us about her unique upbringing growing up in a town where her community knew of her family and the pressures she experienced from such a situation. She shares about her pivotal college years, where she found space to finally be her authentic self as well as meeting her future husband. We discuss how her husband became a stable force in her life and taught her how to trust again. We learn about her experience working with the elderly and children as a speech pathologist, where we get insight into various strategies used to improve memory, following instructions and managing ADHD. Grace opens up about her miscarriage and we reflect on how GenZ is changing the narrative surrounding miscarriage and child loss. She then shares with us the joy and relief of becoming a mother to her beautiful daughter, and touches on her own postpartum experience in addition to reflecting on the importance on respecting a woman’s decision on whether she’s going to be a stay-at-home mom or return to the workforce. Grace also shares with us the vital role her tribe of women friends plays in her life. It was such a pleasure to hear Grace’s story and we look forward to hosting her again in the future!
