Academy-Award winning actress Regina King had this to say about her 20s: “I feel like I’m so much more interesting now, as a soon-to-be-50-year-old woman, than I was at 25. I can bring so much more to the table. You may not have the stamina that you had at 25, but what you know now? So much better.”
King is right. In your 20s, you’re just beginning to figure things out. This decade of life is about making stupid mistakes — but not to the point where you never recover from them. In your 30s, you often get to know yourself more and life gets better. If, like King suggests, life is more interesting after your 20s, then maybe we all get more interesting as we age.
In this episode, Satta, 38, and Jaretta, 31, recap the foolishness of their 20s and the commandments they want to live by in their 30s (and beyond). They also discuss:
