#63-Why Is Everyone in Their 20s a Life Coach?

About this episode

Why is every 20-something with a ring light suddenly a life coach? Bret asks the question, and Josh—bitter, skeptical, and fully Gen X—has thoughts.


This episode dives into the rise of young “experts,” the influencer-to-guru pipeline, and whether social media clout has replaced actual experience. Does experience really matter? YES!!!!


But here’s the twist: did we help create this? By shielding kids from failure, did we accidentally build a generation convinced they’re ready to teach life… before they’ve even lived it?


It’s a masterclass in sarcasm, skepticism, and confronting the monster we may have raised.
