If you’re approaching your late 20s or early 30s and feel like you’re supposed to have your life together by now… this conversation will feel like a warm exhale.

In this episode, I sit down with Caggie Dunlop, founder of the Saturn Returns podcast and author of Saturn Return: Your Cosmic Coming of Age, to unpack what’s really happening when life feels turbulent, uncertain, or like everything is changing at once.

Whether you’re starting over after a breakup, questioning your career, drifting from old friendships, or simply thinking, “I thought I’d be further by now,” this episode will help you make sense of a chapter most people silently struggle through.

You’re not behind.

You’re not failing.

You’re becoming.

This episode is for those who are

• 27–33 and feel lost
• questioning the life you thought you’d have
• “starting over” when everyone else seems ahead
• growing out of old friendships and identities
• navigating big emotional changes all at once

Get ready to learn and reposition yourself to find grounding & peace with your timeline.
