In this episode, I continue my 50 Things I Wish I Knew Sooner series, walking through lessons 16 through 40.

This part of the list shifts from what we do to how we experience our lives - our thoughts, our habits, our self-image, and the way we show up in our relationships.

This isn’t about having everything figured out. It’s about learning how to think differently, trust yourself more, and move through your life with a little more awareness and a lot more intention.

"I am going to warn you in advance that it has been a rough few days and I am not feeling like my best birthday girl self." This was the message I sent to my friend who is coming to visit to celebrate my birthday.

Nothing is wrong and yet everything feels wrong. I think a lot of you can relate to some of the heaviness I'm carrying, but it all comes back to roles - the roles we play because we've chosen them, or more often, they've chosen us.

We don't necessarily want out of them - in fact, often, we like them - but maybe just a little less?? Maybe for a day? Or perfume is fine too, I guess.

This week’s episode started with a random moment in my attic looking for an old box of college photos and turned into something bigger.

There’s a growing trend right now of teens recreating 90s aesthetics… and even subtle shifts in what’s considered “cool” (yes, including the whole smoking vs vaping conversation). But this episode isn’t about trends.

It’s about what those trends mean.

We’re talking about why teens are performing a version of the past they never lived, how constant visibility and social media have changed identity development, and why so many young people are craving something that feels more real, less curated, and less performative.

From social learning and shifting cultural “signals” to the pressure of growing up in a world where everything is seen and evaluated, this episode unpacks what’s really going on beneath the surface and why it actually makes more sense than we think.

Most importantly, we bring it back to parenting: how to move from reacting to behavior to understanding what our teens are trying to feel, and how to create small moments of real, unfiltered connection in a very filtered world.

Because maybe what they’re chasing isn’t the 90s. Maybe it’s a version of life where they don’t feel like they have to perform who they are.
