Hello everybody, I'm Gemma Speck and welcome back to The Psychology of Your 20s, the podcast where we talk through the biggest changes, moments and transitions of our 20s and what they mean for our psychology.
Hello, everybody.
Welcome back to the show.
Welcome back to the podcast.
It is so great to have you here back for another episode.
Today, let's talk about an exceedingly common anxiety and maybe unhappiness for many of us in our 20s.
for many ages, actually, let's be honest.
And that is the depressing state of the nine to five life and our increasing disillusionment with this way of living.
For so many of us who go to college or who just have like professional ambitions of any kind, it kind of feels like the nine to five is our professional destiny.
There's no avoiding it.
It's hard as we try.
And for all of its
downsides, like it does offer structure.
It offers the structure and the kind of work that most of us are told we should want and that would reward us.
If you study hard, you get the degree, you get the job, you work your way up, you buy your apartment, you buy your house, like that's going to be a happy life.
That's the blueprint.
And if you don't love it, if you feel trapped by it, exhausted by it, very resentful of it, there's this assumption that maybe you're just lazy or you're ungrateful or you are expecting too much from your work life and it's unreasonable.
