Summary

For their first "book club" style episode ever, Kristee and Sierra discuss "The Defining Decade" by Meg Jay— a guidance and wisdom book for twentysomethings. The book says that 30 is NOT the new 20 —that your 20's are some of the most important and foundational years of your life! But what does that really mean when you're just trying to figure it all out and have no idea what the future looks like? The hosts of Fingers Crossed weigh in on their thoughts about the book and what changes it inspired them to make in their lives, and what they did NOT like about it. This episode is part one of a two-part series, with this episode focused on the first half of the book, discussing careers, friendships & building your identity capital.
