As someone who is 23 years old, a big thing I keep thinking about is the idea of if “30 is the new 20”. After graduating from the pandemic in 2020, I felt a massive amount of pressure from family and other peers to get a “real” job or get engaged. Usually, many opportunities are available after people graduate, and sadly, because of the pandemic, all the jobs have disappeared.
