Description
Life in your 30s can be a wild ride.
It’s filled with successes, setbacks, moments when you question everything and plenty of breakthroughs along the way.
As your podcast hosts, Tegan and Rachel, we’re here to chat about the delicious chaos of adulthood; in other words, everything you talk to your friends about at brunch, and we mean the bottomless kind!
We share our experiences, insights, adventures (and misadventures) as we navigate this exciting and sometimes downright outrageous period of our lives.
With new episodes every week, this is your place to toast the highs and lows of life in your 30s.
