Are We Adulting Yet?

Welcome back familia!!This week we discuss some changes that are being made in our lives and also on the show. We have a lot of new ideas brewing and we want to keep you guys in the loop as much as possible. We also discuss the new adult purchase Dali recently made that has all of us feeling like we've finally made it in life. It's funny how one basic Amazon buy as an adult can change our whole mood and outlook on life. It's the little things that mean the most sometimes. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back familia!This week we dive deep into the topic of coparenting. The struggles, the patience needed, the communication. There are so many different aspects that come into play when two people decide not to be together but still have to come together to help raise a child. Unfortunately, coparenting has a bad reputation (for good reason), but the older we get, the more we have to learn to grow and make unwanted situations work to better our kids future. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back familia! It's your two favorite girls, Dali and JQ. This week we dive deep into the topic of parenting, but not just any type of parenting. We discuss the pros and cons of reverse parenting. Reverse parenting occurs when the normal parent-child roles are reversed. the The parent looks to the child for nurture, protection and affirmation, and the child, either consciously or unconsciously, sacrifices his or her needs to provide for the needs of the parent.During our grown folk business, we discuss the importance of repetition. Repeating good habits and healthy mindsets. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back familia to another episode! This week we dive deep into the conversation of social media and how easy it is to over share nowadays. It’s easy to find a community online and want to connect and share with others, but how much is too much? It can easily become difficult to find a balance between vulnerability and privacy, and a lot of us realize that after it’s too late. There is beauty in mystery but also in sharing. How can we find the balance between the two? For our grown folk business this week, Dali and JQ discuss The importance of April being Sexual Assault Awareness Month. If you or someone you know Is or has dealt with sexual assault, please know it is ok to ask for help. Nobody should have to deal with a bad situation on their own, no matter how grown we are. April is also National Poetry Month. We want to bring awareness to all of the talented writers out there as well. And we ask that you try digging deep and expressing yourself on paper. Poetry can be a beautiful form of therapy. Give it a try.

Welcome back AWAY family!This week we dive into the topic of celibacy. We've been hearing more and more of our single adult friends choosing to stay celibate and honestly, it doesn't seem like a bad idea.  We are grown now, and sometimes we have to force ourselves to make grown decisions on and what kind of energy we allow into our lives. Celibacy can be a healthy way to determine that for us. Even though this seems like a very difficult lifestyle to lead, it can be very rewarding. For most people, it is an empowering experience and that is why it is slowly becoming a new trend in our society. More and more people are choosing to hold off on sex to focus on themselves more. Would you be able to do it? If you are someone who has practiced celibacy before, we'd love to hear about your experience in the comments below. Grown folk this week is a great time. JQ and Dali decided to go out before recording this episode so they start off the show with very hyped up attitudes, to say the least. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back adult family!Thank you for joining us on another episode Are We Adulting Yet. This week we dive deep into marriage. However, this isn't your average marriage talk. Instead of discussing a relationship with another person, we decided to ask each other if we would marry ourselves. It's so easy to grow up and form relationships with others to see if they are marriage material. But do we ever ask ourselves if we would be a good person to marry? Do we believe we possess the qualities we wish to find in a husband or wife? Even if you are already married, this is a good question to continue to ask yourself to cultivate and keep healthy relationships growing. There is beauty in being able to reflect on your behaviors and habits as we grown. Is this something we should focus more on as we get older? Let us know in the comments below. For our grown folk segment, Dali discusses her healing journey and how messy it is becoming for her. Healing ourselves as we get older isn't always just bubble baths and face masks. It can become very messy and scary when we have to face our traumas, and Dali is experiencing this now more than ever. Jackie talks about her struggles with balancing her everyday life. Parenting is hard and it's a lot easier than one may think to lose yourself while trying to juggle so many tasks with children. It helps to talk about it. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back AWAY family!This week we dive deep into a few different conversations. The main topic though is if we believe the world is getting better or worse. Or could it just be that because we are getting older, the more life we are experiencing and that is making it seem as if our surroundings are worsening.  Could the media play a role into our perspective of the way the world is? Throughout the episode, we also touch on deep interesting topics such as homelessness, drug addiction, war, racism, the environment, and coffee. Like we said, this week we're having multiple different conversations. When we sit. down to think and analyze the world to form an opinion on whether or not the world is getting better or worse, it's easy to get into so many aspects the world has to offer us. We feel like it's important to explore and discuss all of these aspects constantly. Is there a viewpoint you have on life that you believe is getting better or getting worse?Also, Dali has some exciting news she has decided to share with us!

Welcome back fam!This week we dive deep into the topic of appearance and how important it is for us as adults to look good in our society. By now, it's pretty known that if you look good then you probably feel good (to an extent). However, it seems like the older we get the more we begin to, unknowingly, over obsess with our appearance. It becomes the forefront of our society and it's easy to get lost in trying to look good for other people. This is not to say that it's bad to want to look great. After all, studies have shown that the better you present yourself, the more likely you are to land better jobs, better looking partners, and better opportunities in life. But we all know appearance eventually fades, and the older we get we tend to look for deeper meaning within ourselves and others. So does appearance really matter? Or does our perception of appearance simply change over time?  We also share our recent music festival experience and shed a little tear or two because real life is just not the same. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back fam!This week we dive deep into a topic that we're sure many of us have had to deal with. It seems like the older we get, the societal pressures of finding a mate, getting married, and having kids becomes greater and greater. Especially the having kids part. And if you're a women, the pressure is instantly doubled. The is instantly a stigma around adults who choose not to have kids. We are told we are allowed to make our own decisions when we become older, however, when it comes to our reproductive decisions our decisions are judged, warped and looked down upon at times. Have you ever felt the weight of everyone else's opinion on your life? If you have, it's totally normal. But that doesn't make it right.

Welcome back fam! This week we dive deep with a very special guest on a topic that, we believe, is not talked about enough. We have Jose,  host of the You Mean Now Podcast and our brother, join us to discuss the difficulties with men expressing their vulnerability in today's society. It seems like the older we get, the more closed off we become to our emotions. Why is it so difficult to become so exposed? Are women ready for men to be more vulnerable? Is society ready for it? It's always great to hear the perspective of others to gain more awareness and understanding. These are the type of conversations we want to continue having in our adult life to achieve growth.  A big shoutout to our guest today! We loved having him on the show. Follow this weeks guest:Instagram:  Jose @thejosequinones and @youmeannowFacebook: Jose Quinones Podcast: You Mean Now Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back to an all new episode! This week we dive deep into why adults love porn, sex, and being pleasured. It comes to no surprise that the the older we get, the more we begin to realize the massive influence sex has on our culture. With the rise and growth of the Internet we've also experienced a significant rise in the porn and sex work industry. Why is it such a succesful technique to use to grab our attention? Sex sells and we all grow up and become consumers to it, whether we realize it or not. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back fam! This week we dive deep into a topic that a lot of us are familiar with. Cheating within a relationship. Whether you have cheated or have been cheated on, we all grow up and realize that infidelity is a lot more common than we thought it was when we were younger. There is an extremely high percentage of us that find ourselves in these types of situations and it's difficult to accept at times. As children we were all, in some way, served this fantasy that relationships and romance are like a Disney movie. We fall in love and live happily ever after. Unfortunately, that is not the way the real world works. Relationships are always going to get messy, so it's important that we know what we are and are not willing to accept from ourselves and others. We then go into the topic of open relationships. Did you know that millennials are ranked the highest in experimenting with open relationships? Maybe we're realizing there is more than just a monogamous type of relationship? Maybe our generation is accepting the idea that a relationship can look completely opposite from a Disney movie and still thrive? Or is the reality of how common cheating is finally setting in and we are coming to a compromise? Conversations like this are so important to us as we get older. We invest so much of our time into our personal relationships so it feels only right to explore the issues that may arise. And most importantly, learn to have the hard conversations and open mind.Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back, fam!This week we're talking all about technology. As millennials, we have been fortunate enough to really grow with technology and the boom of the internet, but we also experienced life before all of that. Because of this, we are considered to be a rare breed of adults, but how do we continue to grow and keep up with the rapid, fast-paced expansion of technology? It feels like the older we get, the easier it is to not accept or want change, however, is that a good choice to make when it comes to something that is so heavily taking over our new way of living?We also take a little trip down memory lane and remember all of the "new" technology that was introduced to us in the 90's. Ya know, vintage talk. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

We are back with an all new episode of Are We Adulting Yet! This week, we covered a topic that we're sure a lot of us adults face as we get older. Exploring our inner child is not only beneficial for the relationships we create with others, It's most beneficial for the relationship we have with ourselves. Our inner child is an expression of not just your child self, but your lived experience of all life stages. You may channel your inner child through play or by doing something you've always enjoyed doing. Like many of us though, that inner child may be wounded due to passed traumas or neglect. As we dive deeper into adulthood, we realize that a lot of our internal problems and struggles are because we are living with a wounded inner child. We may see that a lot of our fears, anxiety or doubt stems from this. And when we dig deep to understand this, we then allow space in our lives to reparent that inner child and create a healthier and happier life for ourselves. A part of adulting means we are now responsible for every aspect of our lives, including healing from our past. Tune in to hear what helps us and others during this healing journey. Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

Welcome back everyone to another episode of Are We Adulting Yet! The show that discusses all of the adult obstacles, drama, and struggles we all face in our day to day lives. This week we start off with our Grown Folk Business. The segment where we vent about all of the adult tasks that have consumed our lives lately. We all need a moment to decompress and let it all out. We then came together to discuss the juicy story that we're sure has been flooding everybody's timeline. Drake and his hot sauce story is definitely getting people talking so you know we had to put our two cents in on the topic. Unfortunately, these types of incidences happen all of the time, and not just with celebrities. Statistics show that tricking your partner into getting pregnant is mostly common in normal everyday relationships and sexual encounters among both men and women. Why are so many of us ok with deceiving others in such a life changing way. Could it be because of money? Love? Our ego?  Also, we are currently taking any suggestions for any future guest appearances on the show.

After serving a 10 year prison sentence,  this man was able to get out and gather a group of people who would follow everything he said. He would eventually lead them to kill several innocent humans without him even setting foot at the crime scene. What a wild story! Wanna listen to us on YouTube?
