In this episode of Barely Adulting, Annie and Cheyenne dive into the best and worst advice they've ever heard—some inspiring, some downright ridiculous. They call out the classic “just believe and you won’t be stressed” nonsense and debate the fine line between discipline and forcing yourself to stick with something just because. From high school myths about grades determining your entire future (spoiler: they don’t) to the unrealistic dream Pinterest boards we all made, they keep it real about life expectations vs. reality. They also react to a spicy Reddit thread, roasting advice like “time heals everything” and “do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life” (tell that to rent). But it’s not all bad—there’s wisdom too, like embracing change, not overthinking what people think of you (they’re too busy worrying about themselves), and the underrated truth that discipline is freedom. Tune in for laughs, hot takes, and a reality check on the advice we actually need!
