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 âI got thisâ turned into âIâm drowningâ⊠and how asking for help didnât make him weaker â it made him finally grow up.
Â
On the outside, Weston had finally moved out and was âliving the dream.â 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.
đâResponsibility isnât control. Itâs the ability to respond.â That line from his dad? Changed everything.
In this episode, Weston finally stops pretending, opens up about the mess heâs in, and â with help â starts learning the mental skills he shouldâve 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.
đ§ 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.
