Seizing Adulthood
Listen to the untold stories of emerging adults as they journey into the unknown and tackle life’s quests and side quests. Seizing Adulthood's content is not about success stories and we-made-it vibes as it tackles authentic, real-life struggles in adulthood such as endless bills, routinary self-doubt, and stressful decision-making. Join Herwin and Eyddie as they try their best to be functional adults. Learn from their mistakes, mishaps, and misadventures as they talk about how NOT to do things. They are not adulting experts but they already made the mistakes for you, so maybe you can actually learn something from these two.
