Did you know the biological time a singer becomes their best is around their very late 30s to 40s! People are saying that 25 is the new 18, the 30s are the new 20s and the 60s are the new 40s and I completely agree. There’s literally no need for all the rush and the state of our world in the past few years has made the rush increasingly impossible.
I will agree based on my experience! I’m 25 now and my voice now sounds so much better than at 13 when I was working on becoming a singer! At the time my self esteem got so bad i quit even though I was told I was good! Now at 25 I sound as if I have been singing for years, I can do the runs, head voice etc without any difficulties, but I’m scared that 25 is “old” to start a music career!
@@racccoo7847 25 will never be “old” i personally feel like it’s the perfect age to start a music career. for example the queen of pop and queen of rap, madonna and nicki minaj, both started their very successful music careers in their mid-late 20’s. but that’s just my opinion
So true!!! Im 24 and still feel so young!!! I also see all my older family members and they’re still so young and able to still do so much. With that being said I also think that kids 18 and younger should stop trying to grow up so quickly… It can be dangerous with so many predators out there
I really hate how we are made to do exams at an early age that determine our future. Like if I fail an exam at 16, why am I being punished for that later on in life 🤔
I agree. And many careers like lawyers, accounting, and doctors take that into account, you can fail one huge module and pass everything and not be allowed to progress in that career.
Yeah same where im from I started superior education at 17 and I just wasn't in the mindset of wanting to work towards my future so I just didn't go to my classes and neglected my mental health and flunked out of school. Now I am finding it exasperating that I have to fix the mess I did for myself when I was still a kid.
The gag is you're not punished. That's fear they put in you for nothing. There are so many other options. There are people who drop out of school and accomplish things later I edited my typos lol
Agree. Like how often does your age come up in your day to day life? Rarely. If you're 33 and pretty you will be treated better than a 25 year old who is unattractive.
Youth is still currency in the subsection of the world that is too shallow to consider other metrics (like entertainment/gossip). But you are right, in the real, physical world, health and sharp mind will give you an edge at every age, and the good news is, the best time to start developing those is whatever age you are right now!
This is so refreshing something I needed to hear. I’m 33 and sometimes I feel like I’m behind in life but I’m still very young and have a long life to live and I know one day I will reach my goals.
You are still super young. I say you’re young until you die. If that’s 100 then you’re still young. My mom passed she wasn’t even 40 to me there is absolutely nothing better than getting older.
Frankly, any young person that goes around using people’s age as an insult literally has nothing else going for them other than their youth. And once the vitality of youth is gone, they are in danger of becoming an empty shell of a person because so much of their identity is tied up in their age. I am 27 and have been pursuing different hobbies for a long time, because I want to have different things that light me up inside regardless of what age I happen to be. Your age is a number. It doesn’t have to be your identity.

For me the dread of aging started when at 19 and I'm 24 now. Feeling like I haven't achieved enough at my age and feeling shame and guilt for still living with my family. Some people I went to school with have already gotten married moved into a house and even have kids. Growing up what was shown in popular media was that women can have fun and find themselves in their 20's and settle down when they're ready around their mid 30's but in the past 3-4 years i would say mostly due to young nepotism babies getting married and having kids its been glamorized to get married and have kids in your early 20's so you can be that hot young wife and mom at 24. Not to mention the recent surge in male podcasters babbling on that if a woman hasn't settled in her 30's she's past her expiration date. Life has gotten so much harder it feels like a huge boulder is on my chest and the most dreaded question I get asked is how old are you?
Completely agree, but I’ve been able to work through that over the past couple years. Life truly is just beginning and I’m enjoying it. I can’t believe at one point I thought I was supposed to have everything figured out by 20. Idk what I thought I’d be doing for the remaining decades of my life if that was the case 😂
In a nutshell :( I'm 26 and going through the same exact thing! I always push my accomplishments aside when I should be patting myself on the back for getting this far. For learning so much compared to my early 20's.
Feeling this super hard right now. I’m 19 and the aging dreading started last year for me. I feel like my entire life is rooted in being young/ a teenager and the idea of turning 20 next year is really scary. I miss the way life was and am feeling afraid of how fast time goes by. I know life will work out as I have a loving and supportive family, but I still feel it hard.
Nelly ...Girl.. look u are in your best years‼️Do whatever u want NEEEOOOOWWWWW! Whatever u Love, do it as long as it's positive and brings u happiness. Fuk what everyone says.... It won't matter in 10 years, I swear 😂
32 and happy. I stopped worrying about age because that’s people reflecting their insecurities on you. I am going to live my life how I want to period and no one is gonna tell me otherwise. People get upset when they see people are confident and happy all they wanna do is tear you down.
I couldn't agree more. Confidence is sexy! I enjoy being around older people who have aged gracefully. They are great to learn from. I hear too many people being angry about aging.
@@starrjohnson1327 yeah it’s like I can’t stop aging like just let it be and live your life I don’t wanna look back at my younger years stressing about aging. That’s not a way to go about life.
My mom is 36 and I swear she gets more and more beautiful as she ages. Her skin is clear and her body looks awesome. She has achieved most of her goals in life (married, children, bought a house, $100k truck, has a business), and she’s still going. She has grown so much in her life and faith and she and my stepdad are a real inspiration to me. My stepdad, in his early 40’s, has grown a lot since even his early 30’s! Life has gotten better as they got older
One thing that wasn’t mentioned, extreme depression and unfulfillment of “peaking” too early. Just look at child stars or even students who skipped a grade or two. It goes up really fast and down spiral with a vengeance!
yes this is very real! I feel like I suffered from this for a while and had a crisis over it when I was like 19 because I hadn’t “achieved” anything yet
I just turned 27 and while I still consider myself young, I somehow can't get it out of my head that I'm not that young. And you are so right about this fear being much worse for women. I keep thinking that I need to achieve most of my goals by 30, because after 30 I have to get pregnant and my life will stop then... But a man's life doesn't have to stop.
I completely agree with all of this. Then I ask myself “okay you want to be 16 again? What did you have at 16 other than… being 16?” And the answer is usually nothing 😂 at 24 I have a better car, a better job, more money, closer friends, and actually more free time since I’m not doing school/sports/ work all at the same time
@@naomi.cannibalThats another thing! When I look back to when I was 20, I kinda cringe. Technically i was an adult but I was also an idiot. The world wants us to be young and successful, but then how are you supposed to be successful if you don't know what are you doing. I feel like it's one or the other - you are either experienced or young
@@justina2320 yeah or you have parents or older ppl in your life who can help you become this super successful young person… but most of us don’t & we have to figure it out ourselves. It sucks I really hope there is a shift in this mentality. Bc like she said… not like we really had anything before 18. I didn’t get my first car until I was 19. You really have nothing but your youth.
And it’s not like i bought my own car. My dad got it for me. So we have to be dependent on others but once we are older we can call the shots. And also when we are younger we don’t get taken seriously many times… so it’s all bad 😒
@@olivej696 yeah, you are a little punk and then suddenly you're old. I didn't get my first car until I was 24 and I paid for it myself, but I don't live in America so maybe I shouldn't compare :)
I actually think society is becoming more forgiving in terms of age. We're seeing 30+ year old women on social media, thinking they're 20, going to their bios, and being amazed because I think we truly never knew what 30 looked like until now. People are seeing what 30 looks like now and it's not what they've been told it is.
Exactly. When people say 30 like it’s old. I’m like… 👀 have you seen what 30 year old millennial women look like? Most have that Alexa Demie thing going on. People need to stop 😂😂😴
The reason is because if we're honest women used to really stop taking care of themselves once they got married which was usually in their early 20s due to the stress of family life being distracting and more important. Then they would have kids and pregnancy especially multiple pregnancies back to back speeds up the aging process. Life was just harder back then and it showed by age 30. People back then looked a solid 15 years older than they were.
@@puffball4484 that’s not women not taking care of themselves, that’s the natural thing that happens when your body goes through pregnancy and childbirth. No amount of sit ups and squats will make a person who was once pregnant and carry a child look like they never have. The women that you see that don’t look like they’ve had kids when their midsection and hips are showing usually had some kind of surgery
I am turning 35 this sunday and to be honest I feel like I am living the life I wanted from my 28. I mean yeah my life before that wasn´t bad but nothing spectacular either. I never understand why teenagehood/early twenties are so glorified. Part of what makes me feel so good about my age is probably that I am trying to be young in mind, doing things I like, totally blocking people with "this is not propriate for your age" attitude. And also that I am childfree (the older I get the more I hate thought of motherhood so "biological clock" doesn´t bother me). Hope I make sense, english is not my native language.
I am 35 years old and though I enjoyed my college experience, life in my 20’s/after college was kind of hard. I worked jobs that I hated and didn’t make much money. I love being in my 30’s because I finally have the success that I dreamed of and I look great! It’s crazy and unhealthy imo to expect ppl to accomplish everything in life before turning 30. It just isn’t realistic.
I’ll be 30 next year and I’ve never felt more secure and beautiful. I feel the most comfortable in my own skin at my age now than I did in my teens/early 20’s.
That’s what I loved about Netflix’s “Sex Education”. The main character’s mother, Jean, is well in her 50s and a silver fox but she is still treated like a sex symbol. A mature one at that. She exercises sexual agency and liberty and she can get any man she wants. All while still being an amazing mother and therapist. She is such a comfortable and empowering character and I look up to her as my second mother. The writers don’t use her age as a hurdle for why she can’t do the things she wants. She does them anyway, matter of fact the show hardly acknowledges her age. A brilliant masterpiece that show is. (Would recommend but not around your family hehe)
Excellent video. As someone in their early 30s, i never got the hype about the 20s. At 20, i was a lanky, sickly, depressed girl with bad acne. At 30, I'm more confident, my skin in clearer and I've got a good job and a family of my own. For anyone out there feeling anxious about turning 30: it's not the end of the world and you're not old. Don't let any boomer, misogynist, teenaged big-mouth etc tell you otherwise.
hi ^^ I just wanted to say thanks for sharing a little bit of your story and congratulations tfoe your achievements, I hope you're very happy! I'm 25yo now and I'm precisely that sickly depressed girl with bad acne lol my skin reacts very much to my emotional issues and I can't seem to have a nice exterior while not getting better on the inside even with treatments, which makes a whole snow ball effect where I'm felling bad because im looking bad and looking worse for feeling worse. I'm telling all this to say that often I feel very stuck in a circle where is extremely difficult to see a possibility to break out of the cycle. and hearing, even briefly, about someone who was in this position and managed to get out of it is helpful. I hope you and your life gets better and better.
I'm 30 and confirm this message. I was taken advantage of the wrong men so much when I was in my early to mid 20s, largely due to the confidence problems and not knowing what I am doing! I pretty much gave up on the idea of happy relationship/family for myself and invested into my wellbeing and my career track instead. Now, I am (God willing) soon to marry the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, and whom I feel immensely blessed to be chosen by. And I still have work experience from my 20s, with skills that are very transferable! So I say, take care of what you can in your 20s, and don't worry about hitting all life goals within that decade - you'll have your 30s and beyond to accomplish the rest!
We really are! I’m 24, and I refuse to call myself anything other than young. Yes we’re adults, but we (hopefully) have the rest of our lives ahead of us. 25 is the new 18 lmao
I started experiencing ageism from my peers at work when I was 26 & it was annoying. I was always called old & they would joke on me a lot bcuz I was a millennial.
@Dolores I totally understand where you are coming from. I used to work for a very well known kids/teens jewelry company. Rhymes with bears. The 16-20+ yr old co workers I dealt with were plain rude and sometimes, ruthless. It was my first true experience of "aging-out" which looking back- it was mean, ridiculous and just meant to take blows to my self-esteem. They were mean girls. Apparently, I didn't even look mid 20's because customers were asking if I was getting ready to graduate highschool. It was when one girl asked how old I was... the next day conversations turned ageist. Then rumors. Later I found out my boss and I were the same age. So I don't really know what the big deal was? The friend that got me the job was a few years older and she was in "key holder" position as well. I was 24 turning 25 at the time and just needed part-time because I had a full-time job already, in an already crappy job market...where they paid in peanuts. I'm an elder millennial/xennial cusp.That was before we were called "old or geriatric" (but I prefer elder if *have* to choose a gen) on the internet, which in itself is also asinine. I got fed up and found a pt job bartending. From then on whenever they came to me asking if I would cover their shifts, that I couldn't anymore. The manager asked why? and I was already doing bartending and started another pt on top of that. They didn't look pleased, lol. Then satisfyingly, put my two-weeks resignation in.
i really needed this video! i’m 27 going on 28 in a few weeks and multiple people have referred to it as the “slow death march to 30” and it has started to feel like the end of my life haha. since i don’t make bookoo dollars or i’m not already married with kids i’ve already failed at life and i’m only 27…. thanks for the fresh perspective!
I am 34 and feel better than ever. Got happily married recently. I felt I am getting old at 25 but at my 20ties I was depressed. Now I feel young and better than at 25. I think a lot depends on your menthal state how you view yourself and if you vulnerble to society standards
THE HYPOCRISY of pop culture giving an impression that anyone (especially women) over the age of 25 is no longer beautiful or relevant but celebs like Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and JLo are still very much both of those things.
@@niyoleo ya that's true. And then women get bullied even more for hitting 40 and not looking like Shakira bc they won't talk about the procedures they get done.
There’s seniors killing it on tiktok right now & my 30-something ass can barely figure out how to create a video on that fuckin app so we gotta give these people more credit.
Two years I was working in a job with a mixture of young and older women. When the youngest in the group found out I was 28 (at the time) she thought it was funny I was nearly 30. But I told her I was shocked she was 21 because I thought she was my age and that didn't go down well but I was being honest with her.
@@gailainsley6939 seriously. These zoomers... idk if it's the vaping or staying up all night on tik tok but I cannot tell if they're 20 or 28. Then you've got millienials like Alexa looking so young.
I don’t know, I think using ageism to respond to an ageist comment is just feeding the monster. I liked a comment that said, young people who do that really have nothing going on for them but temporary youth.
In jobs Youth = easy to manipulate, of course bosses want younger employees. Youth to men = easy to manipulate, naive. Older = wise, outgoing not easy to manipulate, It’s exciting to see a young person who is not easy to manipulate hence the interesting action storylines
This. It's why the military wants 18 year olds even though many generals have said older recruits are better soldiers. It's easier to indoctrinate an 18 year old.
I’m 35. While I personally have never felt more attractive and comfortable in my life I still get sidetracked by comments from younger people who make me feel like I have one foot in the grave. I understand that for no reason at all we put so much pressure on your 30s like you absolutely have to meet a checklist of milestones or you’re a failure, but that is also the precise time when you stop caring so much a learn to relax.
I heard that from a friend. She said ‘it’s so weird. Everyone makes you scared of turning 30 then you get there and it’s like… this is it? That’s all?’ She said she’s never felt more sure of herself in her life. She’s actually stopped caring about her age now because she still looks good. She thought it will bring a dramatic change but it didn’t so she’s Content😂
To be honest as someone who has went through my teens, my 20s, my 30s, and now in my early 40s I can really and honestly say the best time for me in my life is now in my 40s. Sex is better because I know what I want and understand my body, conversations and relationships are better because I know what I want and have had enough experience to navigate through life better. I even feel more attractive in my 40s because I am now FULLY embracing my femininity.
Im Turing 31 next month and after experiencing my beginning of 30s last year, I didn’t feel/ see much of a difference, face wise I still feel like I’m in my mid-late 20s I don’t feel that old but sometimes my body feels the changes and mentally I feel actually better than in my 20s a sense of freedom and security and just knowing that I don’t have to feel so restrictive to saying/ doing things from when I was in my 20s … it’s a good feeling….. so far, I’d say 30s aren’t that bad … I’m enjoying the early stages of this new era in my life, I probably wouldn’t say 20s were my favorite as to just say I’d have some “ youth” to me still but being in my 30s feels more adult and more free & just a good feeling overall…. Idk if it makes sense but that’s how I’m feeling so far ….
I think that makes sense. I’ve heard a lot of people say their 30s were a more refined version of their 20s, which makes sense to me. I hope mine are that way!
Me the same, my 31st birthday is in September and don’t feel radical changes in looks as mental changes that actually makes me feel incredibly better in all area of life😃
“Life isn’t over at a certain age, but it is over when you stop living life to the fullest and seeing each day as an opportunity to shape our lives in the way we want.” Needed this reminder. I hope if I start to feel like it’s over for me again, I’ll be able to come back to this video.
If you take care of yourself when your younger you will age perfectly. It doesn't help that a lot of people scream in your face, "you're not getting any younger, your over 40,so you're gross; no one wants you". Shoot I'm 41 and when I tell Doppler they say, "Really?! You look in your 20's". So I'm good until men ask my age. Also younger singers are easier to control. You can use the, "You wanna look sexy, so people will like you". The industry really prays on younger people's egos and insecurities. I hate when older people are living their life and people say, " You're too old, to act, look, or dance that way". It's like, "Mind your business, I'm getting my whole life over here"! I agree if you can keep your parents at home. Unless there is a situation that you are not equipped for.
I think everyone’s prime is when they are 30. Like everyone I have seen, known, and met. Have all started glowing and more radiant than ever. It’s actually really amazing and weird of how that works.
As someone who is not interested in getting married or having kids, I can truly live my life for myself to the fullest. Not worrying about those two areas in life takes the pressure off a person. And I'm somebody in their early 20s that's decided this for myself, and every time I tell somebody I'm not getting married or having kids, they look at me sort of abnormally questioning in their heads, "Do you want to die alone with no children, left behind?" Umm well, first, we all leave this planet alone second, why do you assume that I need a husband and kids surrounding me during my later years in life? I'm sure I'll have plenty of friends and family with me during the ending years of my life.Thirdly I'm sure my many siblings will ensure that my bloodline doesn't completely die out. And who knows I might change my mind about find a partner and kids (Probably Not). There many things I want to accomplish in life but I'm also going to take my sweet time getting those accomplishments done. My mentality for this lifetime is going with the flow¬ rushing myself. I'm not religious but I do believe in recarnation and all that past life goodness so if I don't get it right this time around hell maybe I'll get another shot to live life again and do right lol😅
Girl you said my thoughts exactly. I would love to be married or life-partnered, but I don’t anymore see the purpose of kids or bringing them into this mess of a society when it would probably bring me more stress than joy, and I would be so worried for them. It hasn’t made me worried bc we all die alone. Also, for the most part family is chosen, and I don’t believe in having kids to avoid being lonely, or because you want someone to love and care for you unconditionally. That’s not their job
@@naomi.cannibal Exactly. Thanks for reading my long TedTalk post I didn't realize my post was getting so long. I've been binge-watching your videos recently&I love your commentary you're definitely one of the real ones; speaking the truths of the world nobody want to hear nor are ready hear. Please keep doing what your doing; I look forward to seeing your channel grow in the future😊💗
Remain with that same mindset for as long as possible. You see, I got married and had a child and suddenly my life became a lot harder. Pregnancy started off long term illness, my husband and I decided to part ways and it’s been very stressful and my son doesn’t deserve that. You cannot guarantee anything in life and a husband and kids doesn’t mean life is inherently better.
@@kgonzalez8098 I'm sorry to here your going through a hard time I hope you have some good family members or friends around you to help u out. I don't have kids but I know a support system of a few good people can change a lot👌🏽😊
I'm not interested in getting married and having kids either. I also don't care if I die alone as long as I lived a happy and peaceful life. Lots of people that are married and have kids are stressed out, miserable, not able to do things they want to do. My mom has been a CNA for almost 30 years and majority of the people she takes care of have children and they still are lonely and were not able to live a life they wanted to
Right! I feel like social media has played a role. But I’m going to appreciate the fact that I’m aging because it’s better than being dead 😭 and I’ve only gotten better at things with age and time
@@jmaldo92 right? Like what ever happened to "I want to be 30, flirty and fabulous". It used to be a good thing for women and now the narrative has completely shifted to women being terrified of being anything over 22.
@@puffball4484 my mom really shaped the way I viewed turning 30 because she had the time of her life at that age and I assumed that was the prime age to be. We didn't have that whole fear of being 25 and older. Gen Z is really really bizarre for that. I'm not falling for it
You are beautiful no matter your age. And being 30 is DEFINITELY not old. All these pop culture standards are breaking us. Come on! We should be smarter! Don't stress out, please, you are fine.
I have always heard life truly starts in your 30s. I actually believe it for me personally. Im more confident, I am more beautiful than I ever felt in my 20s and no one believes I just turned 38. My Dad who is 62 said 38 is 28. 🤣 I saw a pic of my Mom at 38 and she looked like she was 22 😳. Just live your best life at any age, drink water and get plenty of rest, pray, read books to expand your mind and you will live a fruitful life.
Society has become very youth-obsessed and I'm scared of aging. That study you cited, is exactly how I was in my 20s. I told myself I was too old for everything. Now that I'm 32, I'm starting to care less about that, but I'm still stressing about LOOKING too old to dress a certain way or go certain places (as opposed to BEING too old). I will do my best to just live.
I feel like 30 is the new 20... Factors in Life are not highly attainable, especially now since the cost of living has gone up. I myself, have lived Life in accordance to my maturity, not necessarily age; although there has been a correlation. My motto in Life is "Elevation", which is subject relative. But let me be old, I want to have a LONG FULFILLED LIFE!!!
You think so? I don't feel myself as energetic as I used to be in my 20s. I recently had my 31th birthday, I do look young cause I didn't smoke,drunk alcohol and into sports and care about my skin protection.I do workout. But inside I feel I am loosing my fuel. I don't know how to explain that. I look young only visually I don't feel myself young. Also I live in Asia and men look down on me when they hear 30 :D haha
@@gailainsley6939 Yeah,I agree,but people focuse on men's opinion a lot and think that's what is set in stone.

I just turned 31 last month and I feel wayyy more beautiful,confident,wise, financially and emotionally stable than I did ALL my 20s. I don’t in anyway feel old..I refuse to let society make me feel less than because I’m aging. God says keep a childlike heart not face. I was miserable most of my 20s. Of course as we get older we aren’t able to the same things as we did when we were younger but if you take care of yourself and keep your mind healthy that’s all that really matters physically.
I genuinely believe the whole "Your biological clock is ticking, you'll less likely have a kid over 30!" Is highly overblown. my mom got pregnant through her mid-late 30s, she had 3 completely healthy children, risk free births, and it was easy for her to get pregnant. In fact my mom didn't even know she was pregnant with my baby sister until she was like 3 months in lol. She wasn't trying. She was 39, almost 40. But honestly even then, now adays with all the things we have to help out bones and future older selves with health and what not, it's a little bit ludicrous to be married in your 20s and pregnant in your 30s. There's nothing wrong with waiting longer. You simply have to think and plan long term. Again, mom's in her 60s now and she got her first grandbaby 2 years ago but even at 60 my mom is a massive go-getter. When women talk about "late" pregnancy there's always that one incel who talks about you not being able to play with your kids, but it's very possible.
a client of mine waited until 30 to have kids-had to have exspensive IVF 3x to get pregnant, my cousin got married in her 30s had 3 high risk pregnancies , my friend had her first at 31 had problems giving birth she doesn't want to talk about . not everyone over 30 has uncomplicated healthy pregnancies and deliveries. Just because some women don't doesn't mean it's easy for everyone and that's the dirty secret no one wants to talk about lately its not over blown you chances are higher for something to go wrong over 30.
@@ah5721 And i know people who had to go in vitro fertilization in their 27 and 28 while i have people that got pregnant over thirty without any problems. It is not about the age that much, you can have problems with your pregnancy in all ages if it is meant to happen. So do not exaggerate and scare people.
@@Estelleeeeee I'm not trying to exaggerate and scare people. It's the reality for the women I mentioned. So don't discredit their experiences. Also if you look closely at what I said I said just because Some women don't don't mean it doesn't happen by which I meant it can happen and it's something women who have waited need to be aware it's a possibility.
I’m 31 but I’m happy with my career and lifestyle. At 21 I was just out of college and was living on a budget. I like that my finances are much better now.
I’m 29 and will turn 30 in March. Interestingly enough, I was very anxious to turn 30 in my early 20s. The older I got, the less anxious I became. What’s the point of fearing something you literally cannot do anything about? No matter how much effort we put in our skincare routine, we ALL age. We cannot do anything about it. All we can do is take care of ourselves in our 20s so we age graciously. But even then, it shouldn’t really be about beauty. I want to age well so I can still be active and have all my mobility in my 40s and 50s. Life doesn’t stop after your turn 40. There will always be a younger and more beautiful person. And there will always be an older and wiser person. Once you accept this, you’ll feel more at peace. Just focus on being the best version of yourself. Seriously, who gives a fuck if that random guy across the street thinks you’re past your “expiry” date? That type of men are destined for meaningless relationships based on beauty and will most likely never build a real and substantial relationship. If we keep giving in to that pressure by focusing mostly on our beauty, then we are feeding into the narrative that our worth is based on our physical appearance. We’ll feel less of that pressure once we all TRULY realize that age doesn’t define us.
All this ageism is so ridiculous and disgusting why should we feel punished for not achieving our goals at such young age maybe it wasn’t meant to happen at that time. There is such a thing of a late bloomer, you know.
It can be even worse for people with autism, ADHD, neuro issues, and mental health issues, since we have often not achieved what we're "supposed" to by certain ages. I'm 30 at about the level of someone in their early 20s terms of achievement and lifestyle. I don't feel "old," but I do feel there's not much hope of ever achieving anything. It's depressing.
I have 31 and play a lot of soccer with my female friends of the same age group, from 27 to 30 something. One day we played as a team vs a group of high school seniors. I don't remember which tem won lol, but what I remember is that when they asked for our ages, their reaction was "Wow, that's good that you guys STILL are able to practice sports" like we were senile or something
@@robynology101 how? When men play soccer no one say these comments. Literally the most famous celebrity in the entire world (yes, more famous than Beyoncé) Cristiano Reynold is pushing 40 and no one thinks about his age when he’s playing soccer
@@donttalktomeyoureannoying8736 the average person works long hours and has a busy family life. It happens. You’re lucky if you can make time for a hobby or even self care.
On a side note, I'm so happy that the lead actress in "Everywhere, Everything, All at Once" was an older woman who was portrayed with having real character and an introspective personality. She did a PHENOMENAL job, and was well-deserving of the role she was handed.
I almost cried halfway through this video. Ageing terrifies me and I do feel like a lot of the media and how people treat young singers & arists definitely makes me feel worse. You made some incredibly sensible points that I have also thought of before...how so many heroes in stories, books and movies are all so young, making it seem like its the peak of our lives, I find a lot of the stuff around us odd and it contributes to this ageing phobia. I'm still trying to deal with getting older and telling myself that my life isn't over at 30. I logically know it isn't but the future feels so gray to me having accomplished not much in my life yet. Anyway, fantastic video!!
Thank you!! And idk how old you are but I can tell you I’m way more excited to age in my mid 20s than I was in my early 20s and teenage years, so I hope it’ll be the same for you!
I am 25 and i am just starting to know what i really want in life and what i want in friends. 30’s is for sure the new 20’s the only thing that stays on my mind is that i dont want to get kids over 35
Afrikan cultures treat the elderly similar to Asian cultures. That's why you're least likely to find an Afrikan or an Asian in a retirement home. Not that there's none, It's just not common. Not sure about the belief of Asians, but we Afrikans believe that we should take care of our parents just as they took care of us. We see and treat the elderly with respect, blood related or not. I know where I'm from, we have to greet our elders in a special way.
Yes, I have heard this before! I’m a black American but I’d much rather care for my parents in-home (or go live with them) than send them to a nursing home. It just seems so cold to me and I’ve heard terrible stories about how some people are treated in those homes
17:53 this hit hard. I'm only 20, but I'm made to feel by my peers as if my life is over for not knowing what I want to do or for changing my mind about my major and wanting to try something else/ dropping out of college. And on top of it, whenever I'm out I hear people in the 20s who have their dream job, graduated from university/college by the time they were 21 and here I am, 20 and lost. There's a lot of pressure put onto young adults to already have figured out what they wanted to do with their lives, and while some managed to do that, others that didn't are made to feel terrible. Either way, this was a great video, and it made me feel better about my situation and realize that I still have a long time ahead of me to decide what I want to do. ♥
Most that start college at 18 graduate at 23 not 20-21 according to data. Average takes 5 years especially if the individual is working. Also college age traditional undergraduate ages range is considered 18-24 . You still under 25 and very young . Also you can start career at 25, 28 , 30. Millions of people had a B.A. at 22/23 and waited tables and did other things they wanted and starting using their degree in the 30s. People also have a career and work it for 20 ish years and start a second career in their 40s with their second or third Masters or may earn a PHd or with no degree at all. Then may retire 6O/70s or may live their work and never retire .
This is exactly how I felt when I was 20, on the cusp of 21 yet feeling like I wasted my chance at achieving anything good. I went to a pricey private college, chose a lousy major, only got the associate's degree and felt like my life was over. And at twenty I chauffeured my 18 y.o. cousin to his college and felt envious of him and his peers; that they had so much potential and here I had already squandered mine, and was stuck with the crappy labor-intensive job that I had. It was a hell.
I feel sorry 4 your generation Bcuz 30 is the new 20 Nobody cares that much about 20-somethings year old The future is FOCUSED on sexiness of anyone 30yrs 40yrs and 50 year old J.Lo
It’s not that we are afraid of aging Everything has gone up so dramatically in price we can’t afford to live like how we want in our 20’s and are forced to do it in our 30’s
Ooooh yes I agree with this too. But some people act like it’s somehow less fun to do things in your 30s you didn’t have money for in your 20s just because you’re now a decade older
I’m literally 25 and just found out what I wanna do with my life. All my friends are ending their master degrees and I’m about to start a new career and I feel so blessed to finally have the opportunity to study what I want. Feeling like 20 again!
Girrrl I restarted my Bachelor's at 23 years old (STEM major). All 15 of my classmates were fresh out of high school. Half of them were expelled/had dropped out within the span of the 1st year. Out of the remaining 7, only ONE classmate had a clear idea for his future (we became buddies on that ground). The rest were there because they were good at the subject of the major in school or because it promises high-paying job in the future. One was denied the defense of his thesis because he literally just grabbed one from the Internet. I wish all of them well, but it really gave me a good idea how well we know ourselves fresh outta school and even several years after. For the record, I'm 30 now, with a competitive Master's and nearly 4 years of solid academic experience. Not feeling any older than my early to mid 20s, only more experienced! So take good care of yourself, your body, and best of luck with your studies. God bless :)
Let’s go back to when rockstars lived life, understood what it means to love, experience pain, find themselves- come into their fame in their 40s bc their art is fantastic. Using young people for everything feels lifeless. People that have lived, imprint that on their work.
OMG I’ve been saying since I was 18 I can’t wait to hit 30 lol I’m 22 and I feel like when your in your 30’s you’ve grown into your face, life lessons make much more since, and some not all people got their priorities straight ☺️taking it slow, actually not understanding but over-standing things you learned then applying it,and be the best you can be is key☺️
I’m 30 and ppl still confuse me for a teen, I get anywhere from 16 to 22. I’m not trying to look younger I just do 🤷🏻♀️ but some of my peers literally look 15 to 20 years older than me so I guess it just depends on genes, habits and environment
It's the baby face gene. I have it too. I'll soon be 29 but people say I look way younger and the age guesses I get are between 18 and 23. Sounding younger than my age doesnt help either. But it's not really a bad thing. Only cons I'll say exists in having a baby face is that people dont take you seriously, and youre underestimated.
@@niyoleo oooof the baby face + 'young' voice combo is too real. ill be 26 in october yet im still mistaken for 17/18. people say i should be flattered but idgaf about looking young at 50 i care abt being taken seriously right /now/ lol
Im 28 soon turning 29 and this is something I've been feeling creeping up. Will I ever be self-sufficient, have kids and a husband ? Will I be complete by my mid 30s or is it going to always feel like I'm behind for my age. It's tough because I dealt with addiction and mental health issues that took about a decade of my life and now being 28 and just starting college; I am personally proud but I can't help but compare myself to the average 28 year old who already has worked a few years, had atleast one kid and is self-sufficient and independent. I try to take it easy on myself but the outside world creates this reminders that make it hard not to compare and it undermines the hard work I've put to come as far as I have. I know I still have time but to be honest I just wana have a baby before it's too late 😕 and I don't even know if I will ever love again let alone have a child so it all seems so muddy and uncertain
Hey I’m so proud of how far you’ve come :) many people face with the same thing probably wouldn’t have recovered or go to college. I’ve also felt behind and sometimes I still do
Girl it’s people that’s like 60 that go to college. My college professor went back to school in her 50s and got a career and there she was, a professor!
This is why I love struthless’s “if you feel behind in life, watch this” because it reinforces the idea the it is actually better to find success later in life when you have more experience and knowledge compared to being a “prodigy” that’s most likely naive gets manipulated and preyed on by the older ones in the industry and possibly signing away your rights and burning out young. Just know that when whatever it is you want comes, it’s the right time. But it also sucks that I just graduated and not only me but other classmates are feeling like a failure or feeling “behind”, despite the fact we are only 17-19 and life hasn’t even started for us yet. Our brains aren’t even fully developed. But what has helped me was reminding myself and others that everyone’s path is different and you have no idea what they did or sacrificed for their success at a “young age”. Just focus on yourself, what you want out of life, and how to take it day by day and enjoy everyday because tomorrow is never guaranteed…. Love you. You are awesome. Do what you can in this amazing lifetime. Don’t pity yourself. You are capable. Goodnight ❤️
im turning 18 soon and im already starting to worry that im getting old lol. i know that sounds silly (especially if you're older than me) but the idea that society will stop finding me "valuable" someday still terrifies me
I am 24 and healing from chronic health problems that go back missed from my childhood. Society is hypocritical about youth when you have a lot of patronizing comments around youth tied to power and infantilization that is equal to objectification. I look young for my age and I am going to learn to accept that but it made my eyes open to the beliefs and attitudes about people. People like naiveness in women but don’t like to be around those with learning disabilities. People like a certain look of youthfulness because it means you’re not threatening but paired with other good qualities like intelligence then you’re considered a threat. My mom is almost 50 and I like how Although she is aging (she looks really good for age but not indentical to when she was younger, she still has the same youthful aspect to her that I love. She has things she enjoys doing and I love talking to her about it. I still get to bond over girly things but see it from her age of what she likes. The more you talk about the concern of ageing the more you realize you are robbing yourself of actually enjoying it. A lot of this is tied to trying to be anything and everything out of survival due to our ancestors. I always believed older people are not old but it’s the way they carry themselves that says a lot about certain things.
Time waits on no man. So unless you plan to pass away young you will get old. And that includes men. By the time a man is 60 if he lives that long he will have to pay ppl to respect or pay attention to him. That's a sad life to live imo.
It seems like the average person is ageing slower than they did 10 -20 years ago. If you look at 30 - 40 year olds from the 90s, they look older than people of the same age group today.
@@ah5721 I think black people looked older. I was watching Sally Jesse Raphael a 90s talk show, and the episode was about racism (I think) and the black woman onstage had this matronly figure and Anita Baker haircut, red lipstick and red nails, a black suit. She opened her mouth to say she was “25” I was like wtf why did people back then dress so above their age???
The series Red Rising is one of my favorites in the lines of dystopian plots. Even though he’s introduced as a young teen, it takes years before he gets into the power and position to be able to have an impact on the caste system and the state of society. As a fully grown man with all the experiences and insights gained from the life he had to life in order to give what was essential, they don’t shy away from the fact that we all age and the power imbalance in age and class and money
Thank you so much for making this video! I turned 30 this year and I've honestly never felt better about my life. I may not own a home or even be close to marriage or kids (not sure if I even want that last one), but I'm more than happy with how I spent my youth and how it's shaped me now. 😊
I honestly need to hear this im 21 and ive been depressed over how obsessed my mind has been with trying to relieve my teen years I was heavily sheltered so I feel like i missed out on a lot while also feeling like im running out of time its such a dark mindset to be stuck in
I’m 31, when I lived in Orange County, CA I was treated like an old maiden but then when I moved to Laughlin, NV/ I was treated like up and coming youth. The Southern California ageism is horrible on the psyche.
@@BitchChill Americans being overweight has more to do with mental health, lack of access to healthcare and everything that is our food. Don’t say we aren’t affected by beauty standards because we most definitely are.
I don’t care. I like them because they show that women can be hot waaay past 30. They look great. Yes we can say surgery etc but I’m talking about their energy and passion to continuously aim high and do more. They are really representing well along with people like JLO, Angela Basset etc. it’s okay to be sexy and older. Life doesn’t have to be over just because you become a wife or a mother. Kim decided to go back to law school. Kourtney managed to remarry. Kris Jenner became the boss Arsze woman in her late 50s. Anything is possible and I love that they show to women that life doesn’t have to be over just because you get older or become a mother and a wife.
That video of each one of those men calling their papa was absolutely amazing I’m so glad you included that in this video. What a perfect demonstration.
it’s really hard being a women. i feel a lot of pressure to be a mother to be successful to have my life figured out. i try not to be so hard on myself or take the pressure in too much as i feel i didn’t have a childhood where i could learn about myself and have access to sports and hobbies i would dream about. this is my life. this is your life too. it’s our story at the end of the day only we know ourselves best. im in my early 20’s and i feel like there’s so much to explore and fail at.
This video came right on time for me. Yesterday, I was feeling down about not being where I "should" be in life by now. I'm in my late 30s but it is nowhere near too late for me to accomplish my goals. Thank you for the shift in perspective. 🙏🏾This video just said everything I've been thinking about aging and how our culture wants to disregard women once they are past 29. But I really feel like my best years are ahead of me 😌
Wow I really needed this video. I just recently turned 19 and sometimes it feels like my life is already over and I passed my peak. Everyone posts about their successes and their achievements, these young artists and celebrities and I feel like I'm so behind and I should be able to figure out stuff before I turn 20. I know that's not the case at all to many people. Because it's very evident that people in their 20s and even past their 40s, people still learn and make mistakes. Idk why aging unnecessarily stresses me out, when I'm growing at my own pace lmao. I really appreciate this insightful video ❤
Britney Spears was famous in her teens and has achieved more than the average celeb. Also, her adulthood is a train wreck. Some people have successes at different times in their lives. Success isn’t measured by age. Take your time and show yourself some grace. This isn’t a race
I'm glad I decided to watch this video to the end, because even though it was kinda making me depressed, the end where you go over all the accomplishments that certain people only did when they were 40 and above was really inspiring. I often feel like it's too late for me to start a new hobby or creative idea because I'm too old, it's too late, I'll never get good enough at it. So that was really helpful, thank you. I probably was recommended this video because I was starting to google and get freaked out over the fact that I developed a varicose vein. I know it's absolutely ridiculous but being 31, I didn't expect to get one of those so soon. I feel embarrassed about showing my legs now despite the fact that it's only a tiny spot behind my knee that has it. But it just feels so ugly and a permanent statement that I'm "old" now. I can't wear pretty clothes and pretend I'm young when people can see a freaking varicose vein. I'm embarrassed that I care so much, but I think it's more so that I just didn't expect one so soon, it's making my fear of aging worse. I always told myself that I would never get plastic surgery or botox, I just wanted to try to age gracefully, but here I am, looking up how doctors can collapse and get rid of varicose veins. I guess it's gonna be harder than I thought.
What a great video! Definitely agree with the obsession with youthfulness that's been portrayed in media and how its celebrated and conflated with people's achievements. Especially with Forbes 30 under 30. I get why people feel the pressure to lie simply because people are ageist, sexist etc. Youthfulness is definitely a currency
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this. This is a beautifully executed video, I really enjoyed this and 'm feeling a whole lot better about myself. You just got a new subcriber
I have an older cousin who's 30 and she already feels like she's getting old. It's honestly sad to me because she's no where near old but Society made it seem that way. My other cousin is 24 and even she already says stuff like that.
I’m 27. The day of my 27th birthday I accepted the fact that I’m closer to 30 than I am to 20. I’m turning 28 in September and I’m excited to be getting closer to 30.
this video helped me change my view on aging. my grandmother is in her 60s and still loves hitting the streets. now i'm much more optimistic for my 40s and 50s, and so on!
At twenty-two I feel my youth fleeting. I’m feel like I haven’t lived, and haven’t done enough professionally in my life. I am aware of the way I had to grow up fast, and I’m in this weird limbo, where I feel like my window of care free life has already passed me by. Like now I need to buckle done and get serious. Yet I’m not ready I feel so unprepared and inexperienced, but I can no longer excuse it with naivety.
Another excellent video My birthday is next month and I feel very fortunate and blessed for every yr I get blessed to see. I have always embraced aging and see it as a journey to become a more wise and better person. My goal for each decade is to become a better version of myself and to grow, I have learned how to keep up with technology and learn new skills. I've never fell into the mind frame that age hinders you. I will be 57 and I'm looking forward to many more yrs to grow and learn along the way.
I love that I'm aging gracefully. If you exercise, eat healthily, drink water, take any supplements...the aging process is astonishing. Fuck all that plastic surgery; botox crap.
thank you for this video so much, i cannot tell u how much it means to me. i kept forgetting i already liked the video and stopping to do so every minute of it
Love this video. I'll never forget the moment I looked in the mirror and felt ugly because I realised I had aged even though I'm 25 and I cried because I thought I'd lose all of my opportunities in life. Lmaooo 😭
Great video! You should make a video about how older women who live alone (for various reasons) are often demonized in media and real life. They are called "witches" or "crazy", and some go so far as to make up rumors that they live alone because they murdered their family. This realization hit me when I rewatched season 3 of Stranger Things and Mrs. Driscoll was in a few episodes. I feel like the show took both sides, taking her side by believing her about the rats and then later painting her out to be crazy in multiple ways.
25 is the new 18, 30s are the new 20s and 60s are now the new 40’s - tech is advancing and people are staying younger longer. Exercise and some fasting is key and Working out 4 times a week to keep you youthful does create results. And lather that sunblock.
Did you know the biological time a singer becomes their best is around their very late 30s to 40s! People are saying that 25 is the new 18, the 30s are the new 20s and the 60s are the new 40s and I completely agree. There’s literally no need for all the rush and the state of our world in the past few years has made the rush increasingly impossible.
I didn’t know that! But it’s makes sense, as most of our abilities peak around that age, despite what we’ve been taught
I will agree based on my experience! I’m 25 now and my voice now sounds so much better than at 13 when I was working on becoming a singer! At the time my self esteem got so bad i quit even though I was told I was good! Now at 25 I sound as if I have been singing for years, I can do the runs, head voice etc without any difficulties, but I’m scared that 25 is “old” to start a music career!
@@racccoo7847 You’re 25 that’s so young! Many popular artists are in their late 20s and 30s! Keep on getting better and better.
@@racccoo7847 25 will never be “old” i personally feel like it’s the perfect age to start a music career. for example the queen of pop and queen of rap, madonna and nicki minaj, both started their very successful music careers in their mid-late 20’s. but that’s just my opinion
So true!!! Im 24 and still feel so young!!! I also see all my older family members and they’re still so young and able to still do so much. With that being said I also think that kids 18 and younger should stop trying to grow up so quickly… It can be dangerous with so many predators out there
I really hate how we are made to do exams at an early age that determine our future. Like if I fail an exam at 16, why am I being punished for that later on in life 🤔
I hate that too! What I want now is soooo different than what I wanted in high school
I agree. And many careers like lawyers, accounting, and doctors take that into account, you can fail one huge module and pass everything and not be allowed to progress in that career.
THIS RIGHT HERE!
Yeah same where im from I started superior education at 17 and I just wasn't in the mindset of wanting to work towards my future so I just didn't go to my classes and neglected my mental health and flunked out of school. Now I am finding it exasperating that I have to fix the mess I did for myself when I was still a kid.
The gag is you're not punished. That's fear they put in you for nothing. There are so many other options. There are people who drop out of school and accomplish things later
I edited my typos lol
youth is not currency. health is currency. and looks/attractiveness are more valuable than youth, lets be real.
Agree. Like how often does your age come up in your day to day life? Rarely. If you're 33 and pretty you will be treated better than a 25 year old who is unattractive.
Tea
Youth is still currency in the subsection of the world that is too shallow to consider other metrics (like entertainment/gossip). But you are right, in the real, physical world, health and sharp mind will give you an edge at every age, and the good news is, the best time to start developing those is whatever age you are right now!
Your youth determines your health! That's why we age! Lol! 😂 Because when you're no longer a youth, you slowly decline with age. 💯
This is so refreshing something I needed to hear. I’m 33 and sometimes I feel like I’m behind in life but I’m still very young and have a long life to live and I know one day I will reach my goals.
you’re exactly where you need to be ♥️ still so much life ahead of u!!
your comment just touched my heart thank you!!
You are still super young. I say you’re young until you die. If that’s 100 then you’re still young. My mom passed she wasn’t even 40 to me there is absolutely nothing better than getting older.
God Bless you, I felt through your comment the importance of being kind to oneself.
I'm 41 and I haven't really accomplished too many of my goals, but I always wake up grateful, BECAUSE I WOKE UP! I'm alive that is amazing in itself.
Frankly, any young person that goes around using people’s age as an insult literally has nothing else going for them other than their youth. And once the vitality of youth is gone, they are in danger of becoming an empty shell of a person because so much of their identity is tied up in their age.
I am 27 and have been pursuing different hobbies for a long time, because I want to have different things that light me up inside regardless of what age I happen to be.
Your age is a number. It doesn’t have to be your identity.
Completely agree. And if we don’t let our age trap us then it’s easier to remember that we can change our lives at any moment
💯!!
A fellow 27 year old! And I agree with all of these!
Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere.

For me the dread of aging started when at 19 and I'm 24 now. Feeling like I haven't achieved enough at my age and feeling shame and guilt for still living with my family. Some people I went to school with have already gotten married moved into a house and even have kids. Growing up what was shown in popular media was that women can have fun and find themselves in their 20's and settle down when they're ready around their mid 30's but in the past 3-4 years i would say mostly due to young nepotism babies getting married and having kids its been glamorized to get married and have kids in your early 20's so you can be that hot young wife and mom at 24. Not to mention the recent surge in male podcasters babbling on that if a woman hasn't settled in her 30's she's past her expiration date. Life has gotten so much harder it feels like a huge boulder is on my chest and the most dreaded question I get asked is how old are you?
Completely agree, but I’ve been able to work through that over the past couple years. Life truly is just beginning and I’m enjoying it. I can’t believe at one point I thought I was supposed to have everything figured out by 20. Idk what I thought I’d be doing for the remaining decades of my life if that was the case 😂
THIS comment!!! BRAVO!!!💯💜👍👏
In a nutshell :( I'm 26 and going through the same exact thing! I always push my accomplishments aside when I should be patting myself on the back for getting this far. For learning so much compared to my early 20's.
Feeling this super hard right now. I’m 19 and the aging dreading started last year for me. I feel like my entire life is rooted in being young/ a teenager and the idea of turning 20 next year is really scary. I miss the way life was and am feeling afraid of how fast time goes by. I know life will work out as I have a loving and supportive family, but I still feel it hard.
Nelly ...Girl.. look u are in your best years‼️Do whatever u want NEEEOOOOWWWWW! Whatever u Love, do it as long as it's positive and brings u happiness. Fuk what everyone says.... It won't matter in 10 years, I swear 😂
32 and happy. I stopped worrying about age because that’s people reflecting their insecurities on you. I am going to live my life how I want to period and no one is gonna tell me otherwise. People get upset when they see people are confident and happy all they wanna do is tear you down.
I couldn't agree more. Confidence is sexy! I enjoy being around older people who have aged gracefully. They are great to learn from. I hear too many people being angry about aging.
@@starrjohnson1327 yeah it’s like I can’t stop aging like just let it be and live your life I don’t wanna look back at my younger years stressing about aging. That’s not a way to go about life.
30 flirty and thriving
My mom is 36 and I swear she gets more and more beautiful as she ages. Her skin is clear and her body looks awesome. She has achieved most of her goals in life (married, children, bought a house, $100k truck, has a business), and she’s still going. She has grown so much in her life and faith and she and my stepdad are a real inspiration to me. My stepdad, in his early 40’s, has grown a lot since even his early 30’s! Life has gotten better as they got older
I completely agree with this! Both my parents seem much happier and accomplished in their 50s than in their 30s/40s, and I’m hoping the same for me
My mom too, she’s 41 now
Hang on how old are you? I’m your mothers age!
Awww how sweet 🥰
Christ, "my mom is 36" ME at 42 aka the oldest subscriber in the chat lol. 36 is NOT OLD!!
One thing that wasn’t mentioned, extreme depression and unfulfillment of “peaking” too early. Just look at child stars or even students who skipped a grade or two. It goes up really fast and down spiral with a vengeance!
yes this is very real! I feel like I suffered from this for a while and had a crisis over it when I was like 19 because I hadn’t “achieved” anything yet
I just turned 27 and while I still consider myself young, I somehow can't get it out of my head that I'm not that young.
And you are so right about this fear being much worse for women. I keep thinking that I need to achieve most of my goals by 30, because after 30 I have to get pregnant and my life will stop then...
But a man's life doesn't have to stop.
I completely agree with all of this. Then I ask myself “okay you want to be 16 again? What did you have at 16 other than… being 16?” And the answer is usually nothing 😂 at 24 I have a better car, a better job, more money, closer friends, and actually more free time since I’m not doing school/sports/ work all at the same time
@@naomi.cannibalThats another thing! When I look back to when I was 20, I kinda cringe. Technically i was an adult but I was also an idiot. The world wants us to be young and successful, but then how are you supposed to be successful if you don't know what are you doing. I feel like it's one or the other - you are either experienced or young
@@justina2320 yeah or you have parents or older ppl in your life who can help you become this super successful young person… but most of us don’t & we have to figure it out ourselves. It sucks I really hope there is a shift in this mentality. Bc like she said… not like we really had anything before 18. I didn’t get my first car until I was 19. You really have nothing but your youth.
And it’s not like i bought my own car. My dad got it for me. So we have to be dependent on others but once we are older we can call the shots. And also when we are younger we don’t get taken seriously many times… so it’s all bad 😒
@@olivej696 yeah, you are a little punk and then suddenly you're old.
I didn't get my first car until I was 24 and I paid for it myself, but I don't live in America so maybe I shouldn't compare :)
I actually think society is becoming more forgiving in terms of age. We're seeing 30+ year old women on social media, thinking they're 20, going to their bios, and being amazed because I think we truly never knew what 30 looked like until now. People are seeing what 30 looks like now and it's not what they've been told it is.
Exactly. When people say 30 like it’s old. I’m like… 👀 have you seen what 30 year old millennial women look like? Most have that Alexa Demie thing going on. People need to stop 😂😂😴
The reason is because if we're honest women used to really stop taking care of themselves once they got married which was usually in their early 20s due to the stress of family life being distracting and more important. Then they would have kids and pregnancy especially multiple pregnancies back to back speeds up the aging process. Life was just harder back then and it showed by age 30. People back then looked a solid 15 years older than they were.
Selena Gomez, Arianna Grande and Saweetie (almost) are good examples of what 30 looks like TODAY.
@@puffball4484 🤗♥️
@@puffball4484 that’s not women not taking care of themselves, that’s the natural thing that happens when your body goes through pregnancy and childbirth. No amount of sit ups and squats will make a person who was once pregnant and carry a child look like they never have.
The women that you see that don’t look like they’ve had kids when their midsection and hips are showing usually had some kind of surgery
I am turning 35 this sunday and to be honest I feel like I am living the life I wanted from my 28. I mean yeah my life before that wasn´t bad but nothing spectacular either. I never understand why teenagehood/early twenties are so glorified.
Part of what makes me feel so good about my age is probably that I am trying to be young in mind, doing things I like, totally blocking people with "this is not propriate for your age" attitude. And also that I am childfree (the older I get the more I hate thought of motherhood so "biological clock" doesn´t bother me).
Hope I make sense, english is not my native language.
I agree! I’m finding that as I age I’m becoming more mature and able to have the money/ resources to do what I want. I’m fine with getting older!
I am 35 years old and though I enjoyed my college experience, life in my 20’s/after college was kind of hard. I worked jobs that I hated and didn’t make much money. I love being in my 30’s because I finally have the success that I dreamed of and I look great! It’s crazy and unhealthy imo to expect ppl to accomplish everything in life before turning 30. It just isn’t realistic.
Because it's when most people peak
Me reading this on Sunday. Happy Birthday
Omg I thought it was just me. The older I’m getting, the less interested is
Becoming about kids or relationships in general etc
I’ll be 30 next year and I’ve never felt more secure and beautiful. I feel the most comfortable in my own skin at my age now than I did in my teens/early 20’s.
Same!!!!
you're v pretty
Same
That’s what I loved about Netflix’s “Sex Education”. The main character’s mother, Jean, is well in her 50s and a silver fox but she is still treated like a sex symbol. A mature one at that. She exercises sexual agency and liberty and she can get any man she wants. All while still being an amazing mother and therapist. She is such a comfortable and empowering character and I look up to her as my second mother.
The writers don’t use her age as a hurdle for why she can’t do the things she wants. She does them anyway, matter of fact the show hardly acknowledges her age. A brilliant masterpiece that show is.
(Would recommend but not around your family hehe)
Excellent video. As someone in their early 30s, i never got the hype about the 20s. At 20, i was a lanky, sickly, depressed girl with bad acne. At 30, I'm more confident, my skin in clearer and I've got a good job and a family of my own. For anyone out there feeling anxious about turning 30: it's not the end of the world and you're not old. Don't let any boomer, misogynist, teenaged big-mouth etc tell you otherwise.
as someone who is 25, thank you for this. i’ve been feeling this dread regarding aging for a couple years now, it’s insufferable.
hi ^^ I just wanted to say thanks for sharing a little bit of your story and congratulations tfoe your achievements, I hope you're very happy! I'm 25yo now and I'm precisely that sickly depressed girl with bad acne lol my skin reacts very much to my emotional issues and I can't seem to have a nice exterior while not getting better on the inside even with treatments, which makes a whole snow ball effect where I'm felling bad because im looking bad and looking worse for feeling worse. I'm telling all this to say that often I feel very stuck in a circle where is extremely difficult to see a possibility to break out of the cycle. and hearing, even briefly, about someone who was in this position and managed to get out of it is helpful. I hope you and your life gets better and better.
I'm 30 and confirm this message. I was taken advantage of the wrong men so much when I was in my early to mid 20s, largely due to the confidence problems and not knowing what I am doing! I pretty much gave up on the idea of happy relationship/family for myself and invested into my wellbeing and my career track instead. Now, I am (God willing) soon to marry the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, and whom I feel immensely blessed to be chosen by. And I still have work experience from my 20s, with skills that are very transferable! So I say, take care of what you can in your 20s, and don't worry about hitting all life goals within that decade - you'll have your 30s and beyond to accomplish the rest!
I’m 23 and yes people consider anything after 30 old. Ageism is sad. I’m blessed to be alive
We really are! I’m 24, and I refuse to call myself anything other than young. Yes we’re adults, but we (hopefully) have the rest of our lives ahead of us. 25 is the new 18 lmao

The body starts to decay at 25
I started experiencing ageism from my peers at work when I was 26 & it was annoying. I was always called old & they would joke on me a lot bcuz I was a millennial.
26 is young that’s ridiculous
yeah they must be under 20 that don't make sense
@Dolores I totally understand where you are coming from. I used to work for a very well known kids/teens jewelry company. Rhymes with bears. The 16-20+ yr old co workers I dealt with were plain rude and sometimes, ruthless. It was my first true experience of "aging-out" which looking back- it was mean, ridiculous and just meant to take blows to my self-esteem. They were mean girls. Apparently, I didn't even look mid 20's because customers were asking if I was getting ready to graduate highschool. It was when one girl asked how old I was... the next day conversations turned ageist. Then rumors. Later I found out my boss and I were the same age. So I don't really know what the big deal was?
The friend that got me the job was a few years older and she was in "key holder" position as well. I was 24 turning 25 at the time and just needed part-time because I had a full-time job already, in an already crappy job market...where they paid in peanuts. I'm an elder millennial/xennial cusp.That was before we were called "old or geriatric" (but I prefer elder if *have* to choose a gen) on the internet, which in itself is also asinine.
I got fed up and found a pt job bartending. From then on whenever they came to me asking if I would cover their shifts, that I couldn't anymore. The manager asked why? and I was already doing bartending and started another pt on top of that. They didn't look pleased, lol. Then satisfyingly, put my two-weeks resignation in.
While millennials are getting older they’re the second youngest gen
WHAT? 26 IS HELLA YOUNG
i really needed this video! i’m 27 going on 28 in a few weeks and multiple people have referred to it as the “slow death march to 30” and it has started to feel like the end of my life haha. since i don’t make bookoo dollars or i’m not already married with kids i’ve already failed at life and i’m only 27…. thanks for the fresh perspective!
I hope I’m still unmarried and childless by 27 😂 glad I could help! Your life is truly just beginning girl
I am 34 and feel better than ever. Got happily married recently. I felt I am getting old at 25 but at my 20ties I was depressed. Now I feel young and better than at 25. I think a lot depends on your menthal state how you view yourself and if you vulnerble to society standards
THE HYPOCRISY of pop culture giving an impression that anyone (especially women) over the age of 25 is no longer beautiful or relevant but celebs like Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and JLo are still very much both of those things.
Agree, but all these celebs you mentioned have had facelifts and botox.
Lady Gaga never looked young for her age.

Two years I was working in a job with a mixture of young and older women.
When the youngest in the group found out I was 28 (at the time) she thought it was funny I was nearly 30. But I told her I was shocked she was 21 because I thought she was my age and that didn't go down well but I was being honest with her.
It’s true. Some of these chicks look already older than 30 and have the audacity to speak. It won’t look good once they actually hit 30 though smh 🙈

@@gailainsley6939 seriously. These zoomers... idk if it's the vaping or staying up all night on tik tok but I cannot tell if they're 20 or 28. Then you've got millienials like Alexa looking so young.
Younger women look older than me at my neighborhood, I never see them as threats, I just feel sorry for them because they are being used by older men.
I don’t know, I think using ageism to respond to an ageist comment is just feeding the monster. I liked a comment that said, young people who do that really have nothing going on for them but temporary youth.
In jobs Youth = easy to manipulate, of course bosses want younger employees. Youth to men = easy to manipulate, naive.
Older = wise, outgoing not easy to manipulate,
It’s exciting to see a young person who is not easy to manipulate hence the interesting action storylines
This. It's why the military wants 18 year olds even though many generals have said older recruits are better soldiers. It's easier to indoctrinate an 18 year old.
I’m 35. While I personally have never felt more attractive and comfortable in my life I still get sidetracked by comments from younger people who make me feel like I have one foot in the grave. I understand that for no reason at all we put so much pressure on your 30s like you absolutely have to meet a checklist of milestones or you’re a failure, but that is also the precise time when you stop caring so much a learn to relax.
I heard that from a friend. She said ‘it’s so weird. Everyone makes you scared of turning 30 then you get there and it’s like… this is it? That’s all?’ She said she’s never felt more sure of herself in her life. She’s actually stopped caring about her age now because she still looks good. She thought it will bring a dramatic change but it didn’t so she’s Content😂

To be honest as someone who has went through my teens, my 20s, my 30s, and now in my early 40s I can really and honestly say the best time for me in my life is now in my 40s. Sex is better because I know what I want and understand my body, conversations and relationships are better because I know what I want and have had enough experience to navigate through life better. I even feel more attractive in my 40s because I am now FULLY embracing my femininity.
Im Turing 31 next month and after experiencing my beginning of 30s last year, I didn’t feel/ see much of a difference, face wise I still feel like I’m in my mid-late 20s I don’t feel that old but sometimes my body feels the changes and mentally I feel actually better than in my 20s a sense of freedom and security and just knowing that I don’t have to feel so restrictive to saying/ doing things from when I was in my 20s … it’s a good feeling….. so far, I’d say 30s aren’t that bad … I’m enjoying the early stages of this new era in my life, I probably wouldn’t say 20s were my favorite as to just say I’d have some “ youth” to me still but being in my 30s feels more adult and more free & just a good feeling overall…. Idk if it makes sense but that’s how I’m feeling so far ….
I think that makes sense. I’ve heard a lot of people say their 30s were a more refined version of their 20s, which makes sense to me. I hope mine are that way!
Me the same, my 31st birthday is in September and don’t feel radical changes in looks as mental changes that actually makes me feel incredibly better in all area of life😃
“Life isn’t over at a certain age, but it is over when you stop living life to the fullest and seeing each day as an opportunity to shape our lives in the way we want.”
Needed this reminder. I hope if I start to feel like it’s over for me again, I’ll be able to come back to this video.
This hard when u have anxiety stopping u from living life to the fullest
If you take care of yourself when your younger you will age perfectly. It doesn't help that a lot of people scream in your face, "you're not getting any younger, your over 40,so you're gross; no one wants you". Shoot I'm 41 and when I tell Doppler they say, "Really?! You look in your 20's". So I'm good until men ask my age.
Also younger singers are easier to control. You can use the, "You wanna look sexy, so people will like you". The industry really prays on younger people's egos and insecurities.
I hate when older people are living their life and people say, " You're too old, to act, look, or dance that way". It's like, "Mind your business, I'm getting my whole life over here"! I agree if you can keep your parents at home. Unless there is a situation that you are not equipped for.
I think everyone’s prime is when they are 30. Like everyone I have seen, known, and met. Have all started glowing and more radiant than ever. It’s actually really amazing and weird of how that works.
As someone who is not interested in getting married or having kids, I can truly live my life for myself to the fullest. Not worrying about those two areas in life takes the pressure off a person. And I'm somebody in their early 20s that's decided this for myself, and every time I tell somebody I'm not getting married or having kids, they look at me sort of abnormally questioning in their heads, "Do you want to die alone with no children, left behind?" Umm well, first, we all leave this planet alone second, why do you assume that I need a husband and kids surrounding me during my later years in life? I'm sure I'll have plenty of friends and family with me during the ending years of my life.Thirdly I'm sure my many siblings will ensure that my bloodline doesn't completely die out. And who knows I might change my mind about find a partner and kids (Probably Not). There many things I want to accomplish in life but I'm also going to take my sweet time getting those accomplishments done. My mentality for this lifetime is going with the flow¬ rushing myself. I'm not religious but I do believe in recarnation and all that past life goodness so if I don't get it right this time around hell maybe I'll get another shot to live life again and do right lol😅
Girl you said my thoughts exactly. I would love to be married or life-partnered, but I don’t anymore see the purpose of kids or bringing them into this mess of a society when it would probably bring me more stress than joy, and I would be so worried for them. It hasn’t made me worried bc we all die alone. Also, for the most part family is chosen, and I don’t believe in having kids to avoid being lonely, or because you want someone to love and care for you unconditionally. That’s not their job

Remain with that same mindset for as long as possible. You see, I got married and had a child and suddenly my life became a lot harder. Pregnancy started off long term illness, my husband and I decided to part ways and it’s been very stressful and my son doesn’t deserve that. You cannot guarantee anything in life and a husband and kids doesn’t mean life is inherently better.

I'm not interested in getting married and having kids either. I also don't care if I die alone as long as I lived a happy and peaceful life. Lots of people that are married and have kids are stressed out, miserable, not able to do things they want to do.

You are beautiful no matter your age. And being 30 is DEFINITELY not old. All these pop culture standards are breaking us. Come on! We should be smarter! Don't stress out, please, you are fine.
Ageism just keeps getting worse because of social media too. I have been deemed as "expired" by many for being 22 years old...
I have always heard life truly starts in your 30s. I actually believe it for me personally. Im more confident, I am more beautiful than I ever felt in my 20s and no one believes I just turned 38. My Dad who is 62 said 38 is 28. 🤣 I saw a pic of my Mom at 38 and she looked like she was 22 😳. Just live your best life at any age, drink water and get plenty of rest, pray, read books to expand your mind and you will live a fruitful life.
Society has become very youth-obsessed and I'm scared of aging. That study you cited, is exactly how I was in my 20s. I told myself I was too old for everything. Now that I'm 32, I'm starting to care less about that, but I'm still stressing about LOOKING too old to dress a certain way or go certain places (as opposed to BEING too old). I will do my best to just live.
I feel like 30 is the new 20... Factors in Life are not highly attainable, especially now since the cost of living has gone up.
I myself, have lived Life in accordance to my maturity, not necessarily age; although there has been a correlation. My motto in Life is "Elevation", which is subject relative.
But let me be old, I want to have a LONG FULFILLED LIFE!!!
30 is the new 20 for sure
In terms of emotional and mental maturing 30 should never be considered the new 20s. In my opinion.
You need to start building your futur in your 20s.

I don’t in anyway feel old..I refuse to let society make me feel less than because I’m aging. God says keep a childlike heart not face. I was miserable most of my 20s. Of course as we get older we aren’t able to the same things as we did when we were younger but if you take care of yourself and keep your mind healthy that’s all that really matters physically.
I genuinely believe the whole "Your biological clock is ticking, you'll less likely have a kid over 30!" Is highly overblown. my mom got pregnant through her mid-late 30s, she had 3 completely healthy children, risk free births, and it was easy for her to get pregnant. In fact my mom didn't even know she was pregnant with my baby sister until she was like 3 months in lol. She wasn't trying. She was 39, almost 40.
But honestly even then, now adays with all the things we have to help out bones and future older selves with health and what not, it's a little bit ludicrous to be married in your 20s and pregnant in your 30s. There's nothing wrong with waiting longer. You simply have to think and plan long term. Again, mom's in her 60s now and she got her first grandbaby 2 years ago but even at 60 my mom is a massive go-getter. When women talk about "late" pregnancy there's always that one incel who talks about you not being able to play with your kids, but it's very possible.
a client of mine waited until 30 to have kids-had to have exspensive IVF 3x to get pregnant, my cousin got married in her 30s had 3 high risk pregnancies , my friend had her first at 31 had problems giving birth she doesn't want to talk about . not everyone over 30 has uncomplicated healthy pregnancies and deliveries. Just because some women don't doesn't mean it's easy for everyone and that's the dirty secret no one wants to talk about lately its not over blown you chances are higher for something to go wrong over 30.
@@ah5721 And i know people who had to go in vitro fertilization in their 27 and 28 while i have people that got pregnant over thirty without any problems. It is not about the age that much, you can have problems with your pregnancy in all ages if it is meant to happen. So do not exaggerate and scare people.
@@Estelleeeeee I'm not trying to exaggerate and scare people. It's the reality for the women I mentioned. So don't discredit their experiences. Also if you look closely at what I said I said just because Some women don't don't mean it doesn't happen by which I meant it can happen and it's something women who have waited need to be aware it's a possibility.
I’m 31 but I’m happy with my career and lifestyle. At 21 I was just out of college and was living on a budget. I like that my finances are much better now.
Yesss I’ve heard that your 30s are your 20s but with money lmao
I’m 29 and will turn 30 in March. Interestingly enough, I was very anxious to turn 30 in my early 20s. The older I got, the less anxious I became. What’s the point of fearing something you literally cannot do anything about? No matter how much effort we put in our skincare routine, we ALL age. We cannot do anything about it. All we can do is take care of ourselves in our 20s so we age graciously. But even then, it shouldn’t really be about beauty. I want to age well so I can still be active and have all my mobility in my 40s and 50s. Life doesn’t stop after your turn 40.
There will always be a younger and more beautiful person. And there will always be an older and wiser person. Once you accept this, you’ll feel more at peace. Just focus on being the best version of yourself. Seriously, who gives a fuck if that random guy across the street thinks you’re past your “expiry” date? That type of men are destined for meaningless relationships based on beauty and will most likely never build a real and substantial relationship.
If we keep giving in to that pressure by focusing mostly on our beauty, then we are feeding into the narrative that our worth is based on our physical appearance. We’ll feel less of that pressure once we all TRULY realize that age doesn’t define us.
All this ageism is so ridiculous and disgusting why should we feel punished for not achieving our goals at such young age maybe it wasn’t meant to happen at that time. There is such a thing of a late bloomer, you know.
It can be even worse for people with autism, ADHD, neuro issues, and mental health issues, since we have often not achieved what we're "supposed" to by certain ages. I'm 30 at about the level of someone in their early 20s terms of achievement and lifestyle. I don't feel "old," but I do feel there's not much hope of ever achieving anything. It's depressing.
Hello, I have this issue too.
Same
But the problem is things are getting much worse in this world, not much opportunity for us to achieve anything.
30 is SO young!! finally we're talking about it. im 21 and even i know that
This was really insightful, fear holds us back more than our biological clock or changing bodies
Completely agree! The moment we think we’re “too old” to do or change something, we’ve lost
I hate that women have to worry about age whereas men get to age with grace and no one says anything
Men just want to pressure women into progenerating their bloodlines
And I don't like older men at all.
Love 💗 aging … would never want to go back to my 20s I was silly & self conscious
I’m still in my 20s, but let me tell you life gets better with each year 💕
No you don't. That's a cope
@@BitchChill you're projecting your own insecurities onto others 🤷🏽♀️
I have 31 and play a lot of soccer with my female friends of the same age group, from 27 to 30 something. One day we played as a team vs a group of high school seniors. I don't remember which tem won lol, but what I remember is that when they asked for our ages, their reaction was "Wow, that's good that you guys STILL are able to practice sports" like we were senile or something
Or maybe they thought you'd be too busy with life to practice
😮
@@robynology101 I wish it was like that, but you truly had to be there to see their faces and hear their condescending tone :(
@@robynology101 how? When men play soccer no one say these comments. Literally the most famous celebrity in the entire world (yes, more famous than Beyoncé) Cristiano Reynold is pushing 40 and no one thinks about his age when he’s playing soccer
@@donttalktomeyoureannoying8736 the average person works long hours and has a busy family life. It happens. You’re lucky if you can make time for a hobby or even self care.
On a side note, I'm so happy that the lead actress in "Everywhere, Everything, All at Once" was an older woman who was portrayed with having real character and an introspective personality. She did a PHENOMENAL job, and was well-deserving of the role she was handed.
I almost cried halfway through this video. Ageing terrifies me and I do feel like a lot of the media and how people treat young singers & arists definitely makes me feel worse. You made some incredibly sensible points that I have also thought of before...how so many heroes in stories, books and movies are all so young, making it seem like its the peak of our lives, I find a lot of the stuff around us odd and it contributes to this ageing phobia. I'm still trying to deal with getting older and telling myself that my life isn't over at 30. I logically know it isn't but the future feels so gray to me having accomplished not much in my life yet.
Anyway, fantastic video!!
Thank you!! And idk how old you are but I can tell you I’m way more excited to age in my mid 20s than I was in my early 20s and teenage years, so I hope it’ll be the same for you!
I am 25 and i am just starting to know what i really want in life and what i want in friends. 30’s is for sure the new 20’s the only thing that stays on my mind is that i dont want to get kids over 35
yes, i agree! i feel like this is the age where life starts to sort itself
Afrikan cultures treat the elderly similar to Asian cultures. That's why you're least likely to find an Afrikan or an Asian in a retirement home. Not that there's none, It's just not common. Not sure about the belief of Asians, but we Afrikans believe that we should take care of our parents just as they took care of us. We see and treat the elderly with respect, blood related or not. I know where I'm from, we have to greet our elders in a special way.
Yes, I have heard this before! I’m a black American but I’d much rather care for my parents in-home (or go live with them) than send them to a nursing home. It just seems so cold to me and I’ve heard terrible stories about how some people are treated in those homes
Exactly
@@naomi.cannibal i think it's white people in the western world because we us Africans we never throw them in old age homes.
17:53 this hit hard. I'm only 20, but I'm made to feel by my peers as if my life is over for not knowing what I want to do or for changing my mind about my major and wanting to try something else/ dropping out of college. And on top of it, whenever I'm out I hear people in the 20s who have their dream job, graduated from university/college by the time they were 21 and here I am, 20 and lost. There's a lot of pressure put onto young adults to already have figured out what they wanted to do with their lives, and while some managed to do that, others that didn't are made to feel terrible.
Either way, this was a great video, and it made me feel better about my situation and realize that I still have a long time ahead of me to decide what I want to do. ♥
Most that start college at 18 graduate at 23 not 20-21 according to data. Average takes 5 years especially if the individual is working. Also college age traditional undergraduate ages range is considered 18-24 . You still under 25 and very young . Also you can start career at 25, 28 , 30. Millions of people had a B.A. at 22/23 and waited tables and did other things they wanted and starting using their degree in the 30s. People also have a career and work it for 20 ish years and start a second career in their 40s with their second or third Masters or may earn a PHd or with no degree at all. Then may retire 6O/70s or may live their work and never retire .
This is exactly how I felt when I was 20, on the cusp of 21 yet feeling like I wasted my chance at achieving anything good. I went to a pricey private college, chose a lousy major, only got the associate's degree and felt like my life was over. And at twenty I chauffeured my 18 y.o. cousin to his college and felt envious of him and his peers; that they had so much potential and here I had already squandered mine, and was stuck with the crappy labor-intensive job that I had. It was a hell.
I feel sorry 4 your generation
Bcuz 30 is the new 20
Nobody cares that much about 20-somethings year old
The future is FOCUSED on sexiness of anyone 30yrs 40yrs and 50 year old J.Lo
I’m 20 years old too, and everything you said is exactly how I feel too. It’s too many high expectations smh
It’s not that we are afraid of aging
Everything has gone up so dramatically in price we can’t afford to live like how we want in our 20’s and are forced to do it in our 30’s
Ooooh yes I agree with this too. But some people act like it’s somehow less fun to do things in your 30s you didn’t have money for in your 20s just because you’re now a decade older
It was movies like 13 going on 30 that had me looking forward to my 30s😩
same!! love that movie 🤍
I’m literally 25 and just found out what I wanna do with my life. All my friends are ending their master degrees and I’m about to start a new career and I feel so blessed to finally have the opportunity to study what I want. Feeling like 20 again!
Girrrl I restarted my Bachelor's at 23 years old (STEM major). All 15 of my classmates were fresh out of high school. Half of them were expelled/had dropped out within the span of the 1st year. Out of the remaining 7, only ONE classmate had a clear idea for his future (we became buddies on that ground). The rest were there because they were good at the subject of the major in school or because it promises high-paying job in the future. One was denied the defense of his thesis because he literally just grabbed one from the Internet. I wish all of them well, but it really gave me a good idea how well we know ourselves fresh outta school and even several years after.
For the record, I'm 30 now, with a competitive Master's and nearly 4 years of solid academic experience. Not feeling any older than my early to mid 20s, only more experienced! So take good care of yourself, your body, and best of luck with your studies. God bless :)
@@LadyMontane thank you 💖🥺
Let’s go back to when rockstars lived life, understood what it means to love, experience pain, find themselves- come into their fame in their 40s bc their art is fantastic.
Using young people for everything feels lifeless. People that have lived, imprint that on their work.
We are all going to get there, why stress out about it
OMG I’ve been saying since I was 18 I can’t wait to hit 30 lol I’m 22 and I feel like when your in your 30’s you’ve grown into your face, life lessons make much more since, and some not all people got their priorities straight ☺️taking it slow, actually not understanding but over-standing things you learned then applying it,and be the best you can be is key☺️
Something about 30 just feels mature and sorted out to me
I’m 30 and ppl still confuse me for a teen, I get anywhere from 16 to 22. I’m not trying to look younger I just do 🤷🏻♀️ but some of my peers literally look 15 to 20 years older than me so I guess it just depends on genes, habits and environment
It's the baby face gene. I have it too. I'll soon be 29 but people say I look way younger and the age guesses I get are between 18 and 23. Sounding younger than my age doesnt help either. But it's not really a bad thing. Only cons I'll say exists in having a baby face is that people dont take you seriously, and youre underestimated.
@@niyoleo oooof the baby face + 'young' voice combo is too real. ill be 26 in october yet im still mistaken for 17/18. people say i should be flattered but idgaf about looking young at 50 i care abt being taken seriously right /now/ lol
Girl who’s confusing you for a teen? you look your age. not the humble brag 😂😭
Same. I find it insulting too as age looks different on EVERYONE.
@@LisaF777 She has on makeup in her DP. Makeup makes me look my age too.
Im 28 soon turning 29 and this is something I've been feeling creeping up. Will I ever be self-sufficient, have kids and a husband ? Will I be complete by my mid 30s or is it going to always feel like I'm behind for my age. It's tough because I dealt with addiction and mental health issues that took about a decade of my life and now being 28 and just starting college; I am personally proud but I can't help but compare myself to the average 28 year old who already has worked a few years, had atleast one kid and is self-sufficient and independent. I try to take it easy on myself but the outside world creates this reminders that make it hard not to compare and it undermines the hard work I've put to come as far as I have. I know I still have time but to be honest I just wana have a baby before it's too late 😕 and I don't even know if I will ever love again let alone have a child so it all seems so muddy and uncertain
Hey I’m so proud of how far you’ve come :) many people face with the same thing probably wouldn’t have recovered or go to college. I’ve also felt behind and sometimes I still do
You’re only 28, you have so much time ! You’re still so young :) comparison is the thief of happiness
Girl it’s people that’s like 60 that go to college. My college professor went back to school in her 50s and got a career and there she was, a professor!
This is why I love struthless’s “if you feel behind in life, watch this” because it reinforces the idea the it is actually better to find success later in life when you have more experience and knowledge compared to being a “prodigy” that’s most likely naive gets manipulated and preyed on by the older ones in the industry and possibly signing away your rights and burning out young. Just know that when whatever it is you want comes, it’s the right time.
But it also sucks that I just graduated and not only me but other classmates are feeling like a failure or feeling “behind”, despite the fact we are only 17-19 and life hasn’t even started for us yet. Our brains aren’t even fully developed. But what has helped me was reminding myself and others that everyone’s path is different and you have no idea what they did or sacrificed for their success at a “young age”. Just focus on yourself, what you want out of life, and how to take it day by day and enjoy everyday because tomorrow is never guaranteed….
Love you. You are awesome. Do what you can in this amazing lifetime. Don’t pity yourself. You are capable. Goodnight ❤️
The thing about prodigies, geniuses and high achievers is that they burnout very quickly.
I'm black so I don't mind aging. I'm not going to look old for very very very very very long time. 😂
period!!
Lol #True 😍 I am not worried about age bullsh*t
Black Sun gaze ❤️ Black Moon gaze

Pyrrr
Aging is a huge fear of mine and it was so helpful to put a name to all of the reasons behind why I’m scared, thanks for making this vid❤
im turning 18 soon and im already starting to worry that im getting old lol. i know that sounds silly (especially if you're older than me) but the idea that society will stop finding me "valuable" someday still terrifies me
shut up you are still a baby
I’m turning 19 and I feel the same :(, but I’ve seen that lately it has been a ‘shift’ yk with the ‘30s in the new 20s’
I am 24 and healing from chronic health problems that go back missed from my childhood. Society is hypocritical about youth when you have a lot of patronizing comments around youth tied to power and infantilization that is equal to objectification. I look young for my age and I am going to learn to accept that but it made my eyes open to the beliefs and attitudes about people. People like naiveness in women but don’t like to be around those with learning disabilities. People like a certain look of youthfulness because it means you’re not threatening but paired with other good qualities like intelligence then you’re considered a threat. My mom is almost 50 and I like how Although she is aging (she looks really good for age but not indentical to when she was younger, she still has the same youthful aspect to her that I love. She has things she enjoys doing and I love talking to her about it. I still get to bond over girly things but see it from her age of what she likes. The more you talk about the concern of ageing the more you realize you are robbing yourself of actually enjoying it. A lot of this is tied to trying to be anything and everything out of survival due to our ancestors. I always believed older people are not old but it’s the way they carry themselves that says a lot about certain things.
I just turned 30 and cried on my birthday because I know I will be treated differently now. But overall I feel happy, healthy, and youthful
Time waits on no man. So unless you plan to pass away young you will get old. And that includes men. By the time a man is 60 if he lives that long he will have to pay ppl to respect or pay attention to him. That's a sad life to live imo.
With their struggle sperm creating special needs children, but these misogynists will say only women age. Talking about being delusional.
It seems like the average person is ageing slower than they did 10 -20 years ago. If you look at 30 - 40 year olds from the 90s, they look older than people of the same age group today.
completely agree. i bet the rising popularity of cosmetic procedures ads to it too
I think the use of sunscreen along with fewer people smoking also plays a role
that's because many people of the 90s baked their skin with cooking oil, didnt use sunscreen, smoked drank and ate junk food .
@@ah5721 I think black people looked older. I was watching Sally Jesse Raphael a 90s talk show, and the episode was about racism (I think) and the black woman onstage had this matronly figure and Anita Baker haircut, red lipstick and red nails, a black suit. She opened her mouth to say she was “25” I was like wtf why did people back then dress so above their age???
Your videos are really really great! I think you’ll blow up soon🤞🏾
thanks so much, I hope so too ♥️
The series Red Rising is one of my favorites in the lines of dystopian plots. Even though he’s introduced as a young teen, it takes years before he gets into the power and position to be able to have an impact on the caste system and the state of society. As a fully grown man with all the experiences and insights gained from the life he had to life in order to give what was essential, they don’t shy away from the fact that we all age and the power imbalance in age and class and money
Thank you so much for making this video! I turned 30 this year and I've honestly never felt better about my life. I may not own a home or even be close to marriage or kids (not sure if I even want that last one), but I'm more than happy with how I spent my youth and how it's shaped me now. 😊
I honestly need to hear this im 21 and ive been depressed over how obsessed my mind has been with trying to relieve my teen years I was heavily sheltered so I feel like i missed out on a lot while also feeling like im running out of time its such a dark mindset to be stuck in
I’m 31, when I lived in Orange County, CA I was treated like an old maiden but then when I moved to Laughlin, NV/ I was treated like up and coming youth. The Southern California ageism is horrible on the psyche.
The reason I don't praise the Kardashians for being 40 and on top of media is because they still push dangerous beauty standards
Beauty standards being pushed barely does anything, otherwise the majority of Americans wouldn't be overweight
@@BitchChill no Americans try to fit the beauty standards but fail. Seeing plastic people deny surgery and make it look natural is damaging
@@BitchChill Americans being overweight has more to do with mental health, lack of access to healthcare and everything that is our food. Don’t say we aren’t affected by beauty standards because we most definitely are.
@@BitchChill did you enjoy the video or get anything out of it
I don’t care. I like them because they show that women can be hot waaay past 30. They look great. Yes we can say surgery etc but I’m talking about their energy and passion to continuously aim high and do more. They are really representing well along with people like JLO, Angela Basset etc. it’s okay to be sexy and older. Life doesn’t have to be over just because you become a wife or a mother. Kim decided to go back to law school. Kourtney managed to remarry. Kris Jenner became the boss Arsze woman in her late 50s. Anything is possible and I love that they show to women that life doesn’t have to be over just because you get older or become a mother and a wife.
That video of each one of those men calling their papa was absolutely amazing I’m so glad you included that in this video. What a perfect demonstration.
what you said about asian culture applies to many west african cultures too. we have a lot of respect for elders
it’s really hard being a women. i feel a lot of pressure to be a mother to be successful to have my life figured out. i try not to be so hard on myself or take the pressure in too much as i feel i didn’t have a childhood where i could learn about myself and have access to sports and hobbies i would dream about. this is my life. this is your life too. it’s our story at the end of the day only we know ourselves best. im in my early 20’s and i feel like there’s so much to explore and fail at.
This video came right on time for me. Yesterday, I was feeling down about not being where I "should" be in life by now. I'm in my late 30s but it is nowhere near too late for me to accomplish my goals. Thank you for the shift in perspective. 🙏🏾This video just said everything I've been thinking about aging and how our culture wants to disregard women once they are past 29. But I really feel like my best years are ahead of me 😌
When I was 5 years old I cried when my mom turned 30 because I thought she was going to turn into the wicked witch because of the movie Snow White
The media really socializes us to be afraid of aging, it’s crazy
Wow I really needed this video. I just recently turned 19 and sometimes it feels like my life is already over and I passed my peak. Everyone posts about their successes and their achievements, these young artists and celebrities and I feel like I'm so behind and I should be able to figure out stuff before I turn 20. I know that's not the case at all to many people. Because it's very evident that people in their 20s and even past their 40s, people still learn and make mistakes. Idk why aging unnecessarily stresses me out, when I'm growing at my own pace lmao. I really appreciate this insightful video ❤
Britney Spears was famous in her teens and has achieved more than the average celeb. Also, her adulthood is a train wreck. Some people have successes at different times in their lives. Success isn’t measured by age. Take your time and show yourself some grace. This isn’t a race
I'm glad I decided to watch this video to the end, because even though it was kinda making me depressed, the end where you go over all the accomplishments that certain people only did when they were 40 and above was really inspiring. I often feel like it's too late for me to start a new hobby or creative idea because I'm too old, it's too late, I'll never get good enough at it. So that was really helpful, thank you.
I probably was recommended this video because I was starting to google and get freaked out over the fact that I developed a varicose vein. I know it's absolutely ridiculous but being 31, I didn't expect to get one of those so soon. I feel embarrassed about showing my legs now despite the fact that it's only a tiny spot behind my knee that has it. But it just feels so ugly and a permanent statement that I'm "old" now. I can't wear pretty clothes and pretend I'm young when people can see a freaking varicose vein. I'm embarrassed that I care so much, but I think it's more so that I just didn't expect one so soon, it's making my fear of aging worse. I always told myself that I would never get plastic surgery or botox, I just wanted to try to age gracefully, but here I am, looking up how doctors can collapse and get rid of varicose veins. I guess it's gonna be harder than I thought.
Thanks for agreeing with me! We have to fight aging/old age once and for all! We fight 60 and never ever give up for anti aging!
What a great video! Definitely agree with the obsession with youthfulness that's been portrayed in media and how its celebrated and conflated with people's achievements. Especially with Forbes 30 under 30. I get why people feel the pressure to lie simply because people are ageist, sexist etc. Youthfulness is definitely a currency
You have no idea how much I needed to hear this. This is a beautifully executed video, I really enjoyed this and 'm feeling a whole lot better about myself. You just got a new subcriber
I’m glad! I think I initially made the video bc I needed to hear those words too. I’m glad they’re resonating with other people
I am a new subscriber but I love your videos! I can’t wait to see your channel grow! Keep up the amazing work! 💕

I have an older cousin who's 30 and she already feels like she's getting old. It's honestly sad to me because she's no where near old but Society made it seem that way. My other cousin is 24 and even she already says stuff like that.
They have been having 30 something’s depicting teenagers in shows for ages. I thought Matthew Perry was absurd on 90210
no he looked ready to collect his pension lmfao
@@greyLeicester LOL you are right! I’m getting old and everything from the 90s is just blending together in my memory
I’m 27. The day of my 27th birthday I accepted the fact that I’m closer to 30 than I am to 20. I’m turning 28 in September and I’m excited to be getting closer to 30.
this video helped me change my view on aging. my grandmother is in her 60s and still loves hitting the streets. now i'm much more optimistic for my 40s and 50s, and so on!
"Youth is currency" thats such a haunting statement. It's truly the one thing you cant buy.
Thank you so much for this video! It was so refreshing and touched on so many points that I’ve felt for a long time
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for making this video it is such an important topic
At twenty-two I feel my youth fleeting. I’m feel like I haven’t lived, and haven’t done enough professionally in my life. I am aware of the way I had to grow up fast, and I’m in this weird limbo, where I feel like my window of care free life has already passed me by. Like now I need to buckle done and get serious. Yet I’m not ready I feel so unprepared and inexperienced, but I can no longer excuse it with naivety.
Another excellent video
My birthday is next month and I feel very fortunate and blessed for every yr I get blessed to see. I have always embraced aging and see it as a journey to become a more wise and better person. My goal for each decade is to become a better version of myself and to grow, I have learned how to keep up with technology and learn new skills. I've never fell into the mind frame that age hinders you. I will be 57 and I'm looking forward to many more yrs to grow and learn along the way.
You are blessed!! So many people would give anything for the time on this earth you’ve had. I hope I get it, I’ll be very grateful for
I love that I'm aging gracefully. If you exercise, eat healthily, drink water, take any supplements...the aging process is astonishing. Fuck all that plastic surgery; botox crap.
thank you for this video so much, i cannot tell u how much it means to me. i kept forgetting i already liked the video and stopping to do so every minute of it
Love this video. I'll never forget the moment I looked in the mirror and felt ugly because I realised I had aged even though I'm 25 and I cried because I thought I'd lose all of my opportunities in life. Lmaooo 😭
Great video! You should make a video about how older women who live alone (for various reasons) are often demonized in media and real life. They are called "witches" or "crazy", and some go so far as to make up rumors that they live alone because they murdered their family.
This realization hit me when I rewatched season 3 of Stranger Things and Mrs. Driscoll was in a few episodes. I feel like the show took both sides, taking her side by believing her about the rats and then later painting her out to be crazy in multiple ways.
25 is the new 18, 30s are the new 20s and 60s are now the new 40’s - tech is advancing and people are staying younger longer. Exercise and some fasting is key and Working out 4 times a week to keep you youthful does create results. And lather that sunblock.
