At what point do you actually feel like a proper adult?

Because we're still waiting.

In this episode of Tickety Boo, we talk about the strange reality of getting older, taking on responsibilities and somehow expecting that one day we'll wake up feeling like we've finally got this whole adult thing figured out.

Spoiler: apparently that day doesn't come.

We talk about why fun seems to become less important as we get older. Why everything starts revolving around work, bills, responsibilities and what needs done next.

And we ask what happened to the kid who used to do things simply because they were fun?

Is that part of us still there?

What does it need from us now?

And when did we decide that being responsible meant we had to become so bloody serious?

There are plenty of laughs in this one, but underneath it is something worth thinking about.

Life isn't just something to manage.

You don't get extra points for reaching the end exhausted with everything ticked off your to-do list.

Maybe growing up isn't about getting rid of the child in you.

Maybe it's about becoming the adult who finally lets them enjoy themselves.

Life is for living.

And maybe we all need reminding of that occasionally.
