#1 - Our Student Loan Crisis And The Last Seven Years

Millennials get a bad rap. Much of it is overblown, but there ARE unique challenges we face. Darrell & Megan are here to share them... by sharing their lives. (Disclosure - this post may contain affiliate links. Price is the same, & a portion of the sale supports this site & podcast. Yay! All opinions are our own, never bought or sold.) So what are we in for, here? If you're expecting a couple of millennials whining about how unfair the world is, you'll be sorely disappointed. Instead, you're getting Darrell and Megan - they're 30, married, and building a life together. They discovered something recently - while the world pokes fun at millennial stereotypes, some of them are real. And some of them... are very difficult to deal with. Yes, you can make a life together, but that life is very different from the one our parents' generation built, and it'll probably be different from what our kids will get, too. It can be a beautiful life, as long as you navigate it correctly. In this episode, you'll get a brief, concise idea of what exactly to expect from Living In Stride. It's that simple :) Stick around for our official launch - In episode 1 - get to know Darrell and Megan. Hear their potentially familiar story of life from college graduation to today, and why they decided to do this podcast. In episode 2 - learn about possibly the most major flaw Darrell and Megan each possess, and how those flaws go together like gasoline and a match.  On This Episode: Learn what to expect from Living In Stride!
