"They’ve read all the latest self-help books but still can’t get their act together."

Life post 30 also feels so prescriptive. Maybe it's due to the plateau, everyone thinks they have the best Post-30 plan for you. It feels like self help books are aimed squarely at this market; knowing the vulnerability of a foggy road ahead.

I continually have the thought of, no one is coming to save me anymore. I am in the thick of it and whether I am a dreamer, drifter, grower or a tourist is 100% up to me. It's a weird double edge sword. Call that a Catch-22(+8)
