Welcome to Gen 20 Navigate!
Hello and welcome to Gen20 Navigate, your compass in the modern journey of navigating the twenties! My name is Erin, and I look forward to growing with you on this journey and I’m thrilled to begin this adventure with you. Whether you are approaching your 20’s, currently twenty-something, or even past that age range; my goal with this blog is to provide a resource for learning and growth in this changing world.
I have found that there aren’t many places we can learn most of the basic skills that we should be taught to survive. Some of us don’t have older adult figures in our lives to learn from, and if we do… what we are experiencing growing up is vastly different than the landscape that existed for young adults twenty or thirty years ago. This will serve as your guide to this evolved world and hopefully act as a resource for learning and development in this time of your life.
We’re kicking off our journey by acknowledging that the world has changed since our parents were in their twenties. We face a unique set of challenges and opportunities that we may not have the directions to navigate. The pace of life, career paths, and even how we approach well-being — It’s all evolved. The changes in this time of our lives can be overwhelming, but fear not — we’re in this together. Let’s dive into why this matters and how we can navigate these changes.
Before we explore the unique challenges and opportunities of today, let’s talk about why this platform was created. Why Gen 20 Navigate? It all started with a realization that our journey is different, and it deserves a guide tailored to the modern era. This blog is born out of a passion and need to navigate the complexities, embrace change, and thrive in the present world.
So what can you expect from this blog? We will delve into career insights, financial literacy, and well-being, and explore the lifestyle trends that define the 21st century. Get ready to follow along with a rollercoaster of insights! Consider this your go-to resource for navigating the complexities of your twenties.
Speaking of Journeys, let me share a bit of mine. I am in my early twenties, and navigating this difficult world almost alone. Of course, I have friends to lean on and a few significant older figures in my life, however, I do not have any reliable “adults” to learn basic lessons from. Nobody to learn from on how to handle finances, jobs, personal relationships, struggles, etc. which is no fault of my parents because neither did they. However, I have realized that even if my parents had the tools needed to provide me with support on those matters, what they learned and what I must learn are two completely different skill sets. This world has changed and grown so much since the beginning of the 21st century that much of the information from years ago no longer is useful. We have a completely new culture and world to navigate. But it’s not just about me — it’s about all of us. I invite you to connect and share your stories with us. Let’s turn our experiences into lessons and challenges into triumphs!
