Where are you at in your life stage?
I’m a 20 y/o undergraduate student studying psychology in Los Angeles! I’m a SoCal native but I haven’t explored as much of LA as I’d like to—I’d like to change that and make a friend or two in the process!
How's your life?
Just trying to balance school, internships, and finding time to meet people from all walks of life :)
What helps you keep your sanity?
Creating (I illustrate/design sometimes!), reading (memoirs, fantasy, mystery), and watching every movie under the sun at any local LA theaters (favorites: Princess Mononoke, Tampopo, Ocean’s Eleven).
I also loveee walking and traveling around LA when I have the time and resources to do so (I tend go alone via my college transit pass lol).
What is most important to you right now?
Being secure in who I am! Whether that be through career development, helping my community, or making closer connections with my friends (and potential friends!)—I just want to put myself out there more often, especially as an infp :,)
Anything you recently found interesting?
Not sure what to say here…but you should stream this song (it’s one of my favorites! the character as well 🐈⬛): https://open.spotify.com/track/6VTnxajMD15WSIkbrtpw7e?si=qggEvJmoRNCc526KkNE76g

I am married to my lovely wife. We have 3 kids, a 4 year old and 2 year old twins. Both of us work too much for too little money but we are settling into being a family and just trying to find friends to join in our journey through life.
How's your life?
It's mostly great. I like my job and am working to getting further in my career. My kids drive me crazy but I wouldn't change it for the world. My spouse is super supportive of my. We are working together to make healthier life choices for our bodies and our wallets.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I have started 3d resin printing and painting the models and it's so peaceful. I also listen to audio books (typically different nonfiction / fantasy genres). And I really enjoy doing yard work, growing something fun, and keeping it clean and tidy for our kids to play in
What is most important to you right now?
My family. While I love my quiet time I love spending all the time I can with my kids and wife. We work too much to not spend time together whenever we can. And I work as much as I dare to make sure they get what they need!

I just started 3d printing and even newer to painting. I never thought I would have any artistic ability but I am not half bad at the painting!

Where are you at in your life stage?
I am in my mid 20's pretty early into starting my career but slowly figuring things out. I am thinking of taking the next step and moving out in the future and experiencing living fully independently.
How's your life?
My life has had its ups and downs recently. Some personal life problems have been taking their toll on me but I'm lucky to be surrounded by people that care about me. All in all, things are going ok.
What helps you keep your sanity?
My family and friends are a huge part of how I am able to keep my sanity. I also have hobbies like the gym, video games, cars, and traveling to help with dealing with the stress of life.
What is most important to you right now?
The most important thing to me right now is working on myself. I have recently come to realize there are things I want to improve my life and they are a huge motivation for me to keep improving day to day.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I found it interesting how quickly things can come to change in life, especially once you've gotten comfortable. It really just takes some sort of event or realization for huge change to take effect.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Married, no kids, busy work schedule, but evenings and weekends are open. Trying to find new experiences and explorations, as I currently WFH and want to change my weekly schedule up.
How's your life?
Good, not great. Steady as it goes. Got problems like anyone else, but always look to stay busy with activities. Travel is something that I always look forward to.
What helps you keep your sanity?
A good coffee, an even better beer. Looking to be surrounded by the simple pleasures. Following local sports and their success is big. New discoveries are crucial.
What is most important to you right now?
Family, finding new things, new travel destinations. Getting back into my writing, as I’ve kept it away for too long. Goes hand in hand with new discoveries.
Anything you recently found interesting?
Not recently, but always on the lookout. Been curious about pickleball, and possibly improv. I miss good film conversation. The new Vidiots Theater is awesome.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I moved to the high desert from LA just shy of two years ago now. I always wanted to settle out here in a little cabin, but I was too spoiled to city life. I'll admit, it's been challenging to live here in ways I never expected. The heat, the dirt roads, this I saw coming. The tarantulas wandering in my front door all summer, that was a surprise.
How's your life?
Well, it could certainly be a lot worse! Every day above ground is a small victory. I'm not entirely sure what I'll be doing with myself in this next chapter, but I've got my pitbull Winston, and my two little terriers Artemis and Apollo to keep me company along the way.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Wouldn't it be terrible, if we all got exactly what we deserved? I've come to take great solace in the brutal unfairness of the universe. It's certainly better than taking these things personally.
What is most important to you right now?
I'm looking to build a real community out here in the desert. It took me a while to figure out that changing the world starts locally, and with ourselves.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I'm starting to get back to old interests, I've been thinking about dusting off my art supplies, that sort of thing. I've been reading a lot, the next title on the stack looks promising, it's called 'How Magicians Think'.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I am in my late 20s and single. Two years ago I adopted 2 lovely cats. I am in the stage where I am career focused but also wanting to meet new people who lives in the area. I am not big on parties but I do love going to different restaurants and bars just to discover new places.
How's your life?
My life is going very well right now. My career is on the right track, I am saving money to buy a house, going to the gym consistently and eating very healthy. I sometimes will work weekends and all my friends live much farther than I am. I would say since I don’t get to see my friends all that often since everyone is so busy, I am looking to befriend and meet new people.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I love just going to the gym and not think about my troubles. I am also very much into watches, so a lot of times I will do some window shopping. I do want to read more and expand my library but that is a more long term goal.
What is most important to you right now?
Building meaningful connections means a lot to me right now. I think it is important to get to know like minded people. I enjoy meeting new people and learn about their walks of life. I think most people have interesting stories and a lot to learn from.
Anything you recently found interesting?
Nothing recent comes to mind but I have always loved the field I work in. I love my career and I will talk nonstop about it. I also am just really into watches, tech, and cars. I want to learn golf, I think that is a really good weekend pastime and seems like it is a very good sport to bond over.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I'm trying to narrow down my interests with work (music and audio), and curate a smaller group of friends who I really vibe with. I've always been a quality over quantity kind of person, and that's only gotten more important as I've gotten older.
I work in music and I'm finally finding my niche with a worthwhile, sustainable career and it's definitely fed my optimistic streak. It's an industry that's incredibly wide, so finally finding consistent networking in my little niche has been really fulfilling.
When it comes to friendships and relationships, I think I've experienced enough to know that I can stop looking everywhere for everything. A really quality conversation with one person feels a lot better than just an okay one with five people I'll never see again at a party across town from me.
How's your life?
I'm an eternal optimist, for better and worse. I love to find meaning in my interactions, whether they be significant or just day-to-day. I'm someone who never likes to take his happiness for granted. Does that sound melodramatic?
What helps you keep your sanity?
Good exercise, making my own ice cream, and the knowledge that the future is unwritten. I also have a real interest in spiritual stuff, but I usually don't talk about it because I don't want to weird people out. All I'll say is that sometimes I just like to surrender to the unknown and see where life takes me.
I've spent so many years racing around trying to make things happen right away because "you have to do things with your most productive years" but I'm finding it's best to be patient and use my experience.
What is most important to you right now?
Maintaining good form with my weight lifting, and keeping in time with my rhythm guitar playing!
Aside from that, pushing forward with my newest career opportunities, and trying to keep a level head. This might sound ironic, but life actually feels less uncertain for me these days, and I want to take advantage of that.

Tomato sauce in macaroni and cheese goes a shockingly long way!
