Where are you at in your life stage?
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!
Anything you recently found interesting?
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’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

Where are you at in your life stage?
Kind of a strange in between period. Figuring out what I really want to do, searching for jobs again, kind of lonely as I moved back to Pasadena after living abroad many years. Ended a long term relationship a while back and now it feels like I’m starting over everything but not entirely sure how exactly.
How's your life?
It’s quiet. I used to live abroad and now it’s just kind of figuring things out. I enjoy working out and reading. I hope to be busier soon.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Working out, church, reading, friends.
What is most important to you right now?
My faith and working out. My mom has cancer so I try to keep things positive and focus on enjoying life more. Not take things for granted despite not being where I thought I would be at this stage in my life.
Anything you recently found interesting?
Everything going on politically in the world right now is pretty interesting

Where are you at in your life stage?
Early 30's, nomad. Adventuring from place to place, exploring more ways to experience love. Muay Thai, matcha, yoga, horses, ballet, and violin are major sources of joy for me. I'm finding my highest value is friendship, and believe there is no higher calling than to be there for someone who needs you.
How's your life?
Supernatural, quite frankly. I don't know a better way to describe it, than to say there is clearly some greater force at play here, whose hand is guiding my every step. Still, there are moments of fear and anxiety, but I'm finding the more I can surrender, the more that guiding force comes through.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Meditation, strength training, yoga, eating well, talking to my therapist, reaching out to my friends (I usually spend 5-10 hours per week on calls with friends), and also trusting myself when I know I need to slow down and do absolutely nothing, or have a panic attack lol. I like to say I roll out the red carpet for feelings I once would have deemed "unwelcome."
What is most important to you right now?
Connection, intuition, authenticity. Be who I am, wholeheartedly and unabashedly. Find beauty in things, and see the story that is my own life. Joseph Campbell's work greatly influenced me, and I can see the way my story is writing itself.
Anything you recently found interesting?
The neurological influences of decision making. We think we are logical, rational beings, but most of our decisions and behaviors are driven by the older, less developed sections of the brain. The subconscious, more primal aspects, the feeling parts, have a far greater impact than I ever thought.

Where are you at in your life stage?
I just moved back to LA after being away for 10 years to complete undergrad and grad school. I have a great job but it is WFH which is great for flexibility but makes it hard to meet people! I'm looking to grow a community of friends to play games, pickup sports, go to music, have potlucks, etc.
How's your life?
I'm grateful to be back near family and have enough free time and flexibility to get out to explore the outdoors, go to concerts, etc. I also have two wonderful cats who are the perfect mix of playful and affectionate. Having just moved back I am looking for some like-minded friends to really build a community here again.
What helps you keep your sanity?
I am the kind of person who needs regular exercise to stay balanced. I love to hike, swim, go to the beach, play rec sports, etc. I also enjoy watching sports (mostly soccer and basketball), playing with my cats, puzzles (spelling bee, sudoku, crosswords), board games, live music, cooking, and baking. Typically, I like to have at least one skill or craft to work on for fun as well. Some past projects were to brew kombucha, perfect a pizza dough, learn to speed cube, and build and outdoor solar shower.
What is most important to you right now?
Right now I'm focused on growing a community of people here in LA. I am so happy to be back after many years away, but I am currently lacking a strong community of friends to hang out with.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I was recently hiking in New Mexico with a friend who works on a crew of conservation biologists in Santa Fe. He informed me that some rattle snakes without rattles have started appearing. The theory is that rattle snakes are evolving to have no rattles because hunters have been keen to kill them both out of fear and for their skin and rattles so those that don't have rattles are less obvious and therefore more likely to survive. I found this both interesting and scary, and began to wonder just how many other features animals had adopted or dropped due to human influence.

Ooh, I haven't really made it out that way but those both sound awesome. One of my faves is Beaudry Loop in Glendale. Kind of rough in the day time because of very little shade, but a really fun night hike and an amazing view up top. Catching flights into and out of the Burbank airport from way above is surreal.
