Welcome back to the Law School Toolbox podcast! In this episode, author and educator Julie Lythcott-Haims discusses with Lee the complexities of becoming an adult, emphasizing that adulthood is less about age and more about taking responsibility for oneself. We highlight the importance of developing independence, financial literacy, and the ability to have difficult conversations, while also stressing the value of vulnerability, community, and human connection in navigating adult life. Ultimately, the discussion encourages embracing the challenges of adulthood as opportunities for growth and self-discovery.
