Weston thought being an adult meant doing whatever he wanted. Turns out? It means knowing what to do when everything falls apart. This is the story of how one “I got this” turned into “I’m drowning”
 and how asking for help didn’t make him weaker — it made him finally grow up.

 

On the outside, Weston had finally moved out and was “living the dream.” On the inside? He was overdrafted, maxed out, and spiraling. At 27, he realized something way too many young adults do way too late: No one ever taught him how to respond to life.

📍“Responsibility isn’t control. It’s the ability to respond.” That line from his dad? Changed everything.

In this episode, Weston finally stops pretending, opens up about the mess he’s in, and — with help — starts learning the mental skills he should’ve built at 17
 not 27.

From setting up payment plans to splitting rent to finally seeing money as real, Weston builds what most people avoid: ownership. confidence. clarity.

🎧 Tap into this episode of Mental before life teaches you the hard way. Because the longer you wait to build these skills
 the more expensive the lesson gets.
