The Adventures Of Adulting - Money, Love, Responsibilities, Health And Other Tales
Being a human is an extreme sport, and being an adult human is a true calling. Bills, relationships, sleep-schedules & a bucket-load more have plagued the existence of people above the age of 18 (give or take a few years). In this episode, I unpack how and why this happens. I also show that you might not be the only one trying to endure the side effects of having added years around the sun. The Afroverse listeners also contribute directly by talking about how they really feel about adulting.
