Download The Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter - and How to Make the Most of Them Now AudioBook Free
Our "30-is-the-new-20" culture explains to us that the twentysomething years don't matter. Some say they are an extended adolescence. Others call them an appearing adulthood. But 30 is not the new 20. In such a enlightening booklet, Dr. Meg Jay unveils just how many twentysomethings have been trapped in a swirl of media hype and misinformation that has trivialized what are actually the most defining many years of adulthood. Sketching from more than 10 years of work with hundreds of twentysomething clients and students, Dr. Jay weaves the knowledge of the twentysomething years with convincing, behind-closed-doors stories from twentysomethings themselves. She stocks what psychologists, sociologists, neurologists, reproductive specialists, human-resources professionals, and economists find out about the unique electric power of our 20s and exactly how they change our lives. The result is a provocative and sometimes poignant listen that presents us why our 20s do matter. Our 20s are a period when the things we do - and the things we don't do - will have an enormous impact across years and even decades to come.
