The older I get:. 1. The less I appreciate random phone calls especially at night,or generally if someone doesn't have anything in particular to tell me 2 . The less I need unintentional friendships and connections . 3. The less I need impromptu house visits and unnecessary questions about my personal life.Periiioddtt😊
I'm 26 and the older I get the less I need to be a 'go go go' type of person. I used to think that your identity/worth comes from the things you do (especially career wise) so I felt like I had to always be doing something to have value. Now I realise that I am worth and enough because God says I am, not because of doing more or less things. That reduces the pressure to take on stuff to just feel valuable. I still want to achieve my goals in life but it's because I am called to it not because I live in the fear that they hold the defining power of who I am and I can lose myself at any moment if I don't do them.
@lindahonyiego8493 ❤️❤️❤️If you're a believer, I want to remind you that you're not like akina Sarah who had faith in God, after Christ came you now have the faith of Christ (you have the faith of God) nothing is impossible for you❤️❤️... remember to move like you know God is believing through you, love you❤️
The Older I get the less I need to; 1. Explain myself to anyone, including parents. 2. Worry about what others would say when I do or say something. 3. Compare myself to my peers or agemates. 4. Be fearful. I am 24 for context.
The older i get the more am ENJOYING my me~time;I can stay indoors the whole weekend without feeling the need to step out of my door,ill leave the house on Monday to go to work 😅
Hapo kwa sugar. Yes, yes I'm 26 and can't remember when i last had soda. I cannot stand sweet things as well. And i actually enjoy sugarless coffee, tea and even uji😅
The older i get the more i tell women that being a mother is not for everyone and not because your not a good or loving person but because it requires you to literally lay down your life and take up a responsibility for life that will push stretch and scare you more than anything you will ever experience in life. Its the best thing that can ever happen to you but also the hardest so be sure you want a child before you go down that route. I am a mother and i LOVE IT!!!
The older I become, the stronger the desire to withdraw from social media and lead a more private life. I feel compelled to reduce my visibility to people who aren't close friends or colleagues
I'm 22yr old and honestly I feel like the older I get the more I yearn for much more in everything. Be it sex or money or even better clothes coz you know if it's sex newer styles and experiences come up,or if it's dating I will always wanna do better,date someone of higher standards than my ex,if it's clothes news brands and fashion senses come up and every other things. And money each day my needs are changing and the mulla is definitely supposed to shake my pocket so I'll always want more opportunities to make more money. Love u TMI.❤❤❤❤
I'm 24, the older I get the less I need to hold on to relationships or friendships that no longer serve me. No matter how good it has been, sometimes when the other person starts acting funny and issues become unsolvable I choose to accept the pain, be on my way and just heal. No drama no nothing
The older I get 1.the more sensitive I am about being in serene quiet surroundings 2. the more I realize my parents need love and time from me than I thought they ever did 3. The more assertive I have become, I have noticed my immediate family calling me their golden retriever like I call out any relatives that cross the limits
I love you guys sm.... Murugi, there's a section in the book the courage to be disliked that speaks on your discussion on the struggle of letting our children and younger loved ones from facing the harsh realities of this life. I think it is somewhere between charpter 28 to 32. I was struggling with that too and it changed my perspective and maybe you should give it a read❤
The older i get the less i want to be attached to my boyfriend, we've dated for more than 5 years, now in my late 20s i'm more focused on my career, and intentionally making and maintaining friendships. When you give your man space, he even falls more in love with you .
The older I get the more I realize everyone is struggling with sth “embarrassing”(even the ones I admire). I am imperfect and that’s normal. Other people are imperfect and that’s normal 😌
The toddlers show y'all are talking about at the beginning of the show is called The Secret Life of 4, 5, 6 Year Olds Australia. I love love love watching it☺☺
Enjoyed every bit of this episode,, 28 yr old here. The older i get the less i need to feel like i fit into friendship groups or need to impress anyone to fit in
The older I get the less I need external validation. Am 39 years. I don't need to follow any fashion trends, I don't need to be on tiktok and follow influencers on insta . Am okay with missing out. FOMO means nothing now.
Thank you !!!!! Trust me its not even missing out, its such a peaceful simple life. I thought i was weird 😂good to see there is another weird person. Nothing against those social media platforms but Lord, I can take the joy of 'missing out'
The older I get the less I need friends because age and time has shown me that they are seasonal. I value my family more because only they are constant.
I'm 24, the older I get , 1. The less I need men attention and validation 2. The less I care about family members who drain my energy 3. The less I take not just sugar but junk, I just can't with cakes, chips anymore 4. The less I talk, I just listen. That's just me
On the generations .......work ethic I think is based on how our society currently views hardwork to be...... boomers n X think hardwork is late nights and early mornings for example...but their people who meet the same deliverables between 8-5pm and because of the view that exists....they dont count....offices pick on guys who leave work at exactly 5pm...but who said they dint meet the deliverables of the day and excellently? We are not appreciated based on actual output but on certain factors like working hours....which makes no actual sense.....atleast not in all circumstances. Another twist...my therapist once said the generational behaviours are actually a result of trauma which has forms a pattern and determines how the next generation behavior. Quick example Most older or rather parents were providerd but absent from social and emotional needs of the family...which has an impact on children ....as a result the younger generation values more social and emotional needs .....because thats what they lacked hence the sudden extreme need for work life balance in younger generations.. On the period thing...speaking as a person who suffers terrible cramps...period off or leave should be a thing...its subject to abuse I know but how do you cater for the likes of me?........
I disagree with Lydia on not coming out very strongly on what I believe will harm my loved ones. If undressing and walking around naked is what I need to do to make my point, I will do it. I just can't watch my loved one walk towards an oncoming trailer truck and do some minimal "oh, please think about the consequences before you ...." I WILL DO THE MOST.
About the sex toys Murugi wants to throw away...I would actually be happy to receive them if donated..Very happy!.I've been saving forever for them and due to financial constraints I just can't seem to get there.I'm single 5 years and instead of having sex with people I'm not committed to I'd prefer to just have toys and meet my own sexual needs by myself. somebody tag Murugi for me banange.
Feeling caught on the period leave excuse, looking back at those texts i emphathise with how dumb id phrased them but they let me anyway..i mean im just a girl😟🤭
Murugi nobody's hand ever got amputated for touching a hot iron 😂😂😂. It's impossible to save adults from their life. Murugi like me, is a people pleaser in recovery. We tend to take responsibility for others and we attach the results of their life experience to our worth in their lives. Tutapona Murugi, Tutapona. Our responsibility to our parents is honour & respect ( biblical). Our responsibility to our siblings is love. Our responsibility to our spouse is love & grace. Our responsibility to our children transitions/ change as they get into different stages of growth. There will come a time when you need to detach from them so that they can achieve autonomy.
The older I get the more I; 1. Love TMI🥹❤️❤️ (like Wednesday should just be International TMI day😁) 2. Want to enjoy my personal space📌📌📌 3. Want to try out new experiences and places😊
When Murugi said " The older I get the less I need frequent sex but the more I need quality sex" this hit right home
The older i get the less i need to engage in an argument that is unnecessary
Yea . I choose to be silent and just watch the other party rant
The older i get the less i need visitors at my house❤️
This is definitely true!
Say it louder please! "Nimepitia kukusalimia"
Me: Noooo😩😩🤣
😂😂kila mtu akae kwake
So true
Me and you,sameee😅
The older I get:.
1. The less I appreciate random phone calls especially at night,or generally if someone doesn't have anything in particular to tell me
2 . The less I need unintentional friendships and connections .
3. The less I need impromptu house visits and unnecessary questions about my personal life.Periiioddtt😊
All of these. 💯
My twin
OMG, i'm 19 and i'm already tired of these😂😭
The older i get the less i need to be the one who always starts conversation...
Say it again baby

The older I get the less I need anxiety driven friendships
The Older I get the less I need to;
1. Explain myself to anyone, including parents.
2. Worry about what others would say when I do or say something.
3. Compare myself to my peers or agemates.
4. Be fearful.
I am 24 for context.
💯
Explaining myself to parents, yes that
Gen Z unparenting😂😂
Hallo Gen Z😂

The older I get the less validation I need from ANYONE! such a comfortable place to be🥰
Exactly. Just doing you
The older I get the less I care about other people's opinion of me.
The older i get, the less chaos I need in my life.
I'm 22yr old and honestly I feel like the older I get the more I yearn for much more in everything.

I actually really love this for you. My 22yr old self was a lot less self aware than you're sounding. ✨ You're well on your way to elevating.
@@NopeZii254 Thank u babe.

The older i get the less i need to let my family members get into my personal life with their opinions on what to do and what not to do
Lydia would make a great therapist..decentralizing ourselves from our love stories is something we all need to do. Thank you for the convo!!
The show Lydia is referring to I think is "The secret Life of 5/6 year olds" So fun!!!😊
Thank you
The older i get, the more i don't care what people think or say .it's literally the least of my problems😂
I believe you don't always have to experience things for you to learn.
The older i get the less i want to be attached to my boyfriend, we've dated for more than 5 years, now in my late 20s i'm more focused on my career, and intentionally making and maintaining friendships. When you give your man space, he even falls more in love with you .
Kweli..the older I get, the more I love my own company and peace.
#selflove❤
idk Lydia seems to me that friend who really believes in the better in you and works with you to channel it.. I see you Lyds, and Murugi. growth!❤🔥
The older i get the more i feel like i really don't want to have kids and experiencing the forever love or marriage with a partner
OMG saaame😭
We are together in this ... I'm 34
The older I get, the less I need to tolerate grown adult’s BS.
Just admiring the Back Portrait the whole show😂
The older I get the less I need approval of people who once meant something to me
The older I get the less I need external validation
Minute 32:50 . Therapist Lydia stepped in 😂😂
The older I get, the less I need to prove myself to people, some people will never get it and that's okay!
idk why..... but your makeup attracts me to watch your podcast every time for sure😍🥰
My goal in life is to look as good as Lydia in red lipstick 🔥…🤗
@Cherilyn, I know right!!
Look at Lyd sounding like a therapist 😂😂😂
the things Lyd was saying from minute 53:02 super relatable 🥹🥹🫶🏾🫶🏾i love TMI smmm❤
The older I get, the less I am willing to accommodate those invading my personal space.
The older I get the more I realize everyone is struggling with sth “embarrassing”(even the ones I admire). I am imperfect and that’s normal. Other people are imperfect and that’s normal 😌
The older I get the less I hate small talk.
So basically you enjoy small talk
Maaan, where do i get a friend like Lydia, damn 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
The first point on heels and I'm sold!!! Twende nalo my girls!!😅

Thank you !!!!! Trust me its not even missing out, its such a peaceful simple life. I thought i was weird 😂good to see there is another weird person.
Nothing against those social media platforms but Lord, I can take the joy of 'missing out'
I'm 32 and I'm starting to feel like I don't need all that. Peace is so underrated yet so simple to achieve.
That's me. I enjoy not having to scroll for hours. It's really nice not following people or trends.
It becomes JOMO (Joy of missing out)
What's FOMO?😮
The older I get,the more I realise consistency isn't loyalty.
Am 43,The older i get the zero energy i have for impressing anyone.what i do i do for me.
Hey Lydia 30:00 - 35:44 I needed to hear that.
Lydia your earrings girl🔥…plug us😌
The older I get the less I need friends because age and time has shown me that they are seasonal. I value my family more because only they are constant.
the older i get the less i need to mind other people business.
The older I get, the less I need to people-please...
Been waiting for the notification since 🤭
I'm 24, the older I get ,

That's just me

Secret Lives of 4,5 & 6 year olds is the show.😂😂 the way I followed that show ahem

Feeling caught on the period leave excuse, looking back at those texts i emphathise with how dumb id phrased them but they let me anyway..i mean im just a girl😟🤭
Is the show Lyd you’re talking about 7 up? In that one they followed kids from when they were 7, then at 14 yrs, at 21 yrs.
The older I get, the less I need people to like me.
The older I get the more I catch myself whenever I want to say something nasty,
The older I get,the less I need external validation (26yrs)
Murugi nobody's hand ever got amputated for touching a hot iron 😂😂😂.
It's impossible to save adults from their life.
Murugi like me, is a people pleaser in recovery. We tend to take responsibility for others and we attach the results of their life experience to our worth in their lives.
Tutapona Murugi, Tutapona.
Our responsibility to our parents is honour & respect ( biblical).
Our responsibility to our siblings is love.
Our responsibility to our spouse is love & grace.
Our responsibility to our children transitions/ change as they get into different stages of growth. There will come a time when you need to detach from them so that they can achieve autonomy.
The less I need new friends.
early today🥰🥰🥰🥰
The older I get the more I;
1. Love TMI🥹❤️❤️ (like Wednesday should just be International TMI day😁)
2. Want to enjoy my personal space📌📌📌
3. Want to try out new experiences and places😊
Say my name right😂
