is ai making you incompetent?
whether it’s going to Chat for therapy sessions or using it to write a paragraph, AI has quietly, yet undeniably, seeped itself into our lives. in this episode, we go into the implications of AI, like the environmental harm it causes, and the class realities that make opting out a privilege. we talk about the pressure to use AI to keep up and the moral guilt that comes with it, but also how intentional AI use could give marginalized people access to the tools, guidance, and knowledge they never had. if both choices carry harm, is there an ethical way to participate or abstain? Resources available: Coach by CareerVillage.org (https://www.aicareercoach.org/) - research-backed AI career coach designed for colleges, workforce programs, and online learning platforms to scale guidance, close skill gaps, and improve outcomes. The Broken Marketplace (https://www.brokenmarketplace.org/) - Highlights research to explore why the pathways from school to career are broken, leaving students and job seekers unprepared and unsupported.

why am i always tired?
it seems no matter how many cold brews we drink, how healthy we eat, or how much we sleep, we are always tired. is this our body simply keeping the score? are we subconsciously emotionally drained? or maybe we like to indulge in this feeling because it’s comfortable and familiar. so, instead of trying to film this episode when we had more energy, we decided to give into it and let you see us at a vulnerable state… aka when we’re tired. we become delirious, mute, and gay…? follow us: @grownk1d @gaelaitor @_kaylasuarez join our social club: https://form.typeform.com/to/eBSho4lE overshare with us: grownkid.com About our Partners: GrownKid is made in partnership with Joy Coalition where purpose driven content meets powerful storytelling.

why is eating healthy considered over restrictive?
if your friend brought a greek yogurt bowl to the movies, would you think they're smart or depriving themselves? this episode was inspired by a viral tiktok of a couple doing just that and the internet went crazy. in this episode we talk about diet trends, the line between self care and over restriction, and body image. now, it seems like food is a statement everyone is reading into. follow us: @grownk1d @gaelaitor @_kaylasuarez join our social club: https://form.typeform.com/to/eBSho4lE overshare with us: grownkid.com About our Partners: GrownKid is made in partnership with Joy Coalition where purpose driven content meets powerful storytelling.

friendship and community aren't the same thing
the new buzzword everyone seems to be talking about is “community.” and though we keep hearing about the importance of community and how we have to create it, nobody really talks about what it actually is. is it friendship? is it a support system? a social circle? though the line of friendship and community blur, in this episode, we talk about how we differentiate the two, the steps we’ve taken to build both, and why everyone seems to be inconvenienced by them. Resources available: - Youth Mental Health Corps (youthmentalhealthcorps.org) - created by the Schultz Family Foundation and Pinterest - is a first-of-its-kind program that trains and places young adults as near-peer mental health navigators in schools and community organizations. These members expand access to care while building their own careers in the behavioral health field. Schools where they serve have seen fewer behavioral incidents, better attendance, and more students reaching out for support. The Youth Mental Health Corps is now in 11 states and growing.

does moving solve all your problems?
it's been a few weeks since we settled into new york and we're here to answer the big question everyone asks... does moving solve all your problems? and the short answer is: it solves some and creates others. so we reflect on how the move has felt so far, the problems it’s helped us leave behind, and the new challenges we’ve been facing. follow us: @grownkld @gaelaitor @_kaylasuarez join our social club: https://form.typeform.com/to/eBSho4lE overshare with us: grownkid.com About our Partners: GrownKid is made in partnership with Joy Coalition where purpose driven content meets powerful storytelling.

it’s not you, it’s the job market
it’s no secret that everyone is applying for jobs but nobody’s hearing back… even the job market is ghosting us. in this episode, we get into the current school-to-work crisis, how our friends are dealing with it, and how we’ve been navigating it ourselves—kayla recently graduating debt-free from USC (thank you financial aid) and gael dropping out to take an entrepreneurial route. but whether you went to college or not, the result is the same: unemployment. is this a normal experience, is it just us, or is the job marketplace broken as a whole? so next time your unemployed friend asks you to hang out on a tuesday at 2pm, have some sympathy and maybe say yes, cause everybody's going through it.  Resources available: - The Better Marketplace (https://www.brokenmarketplace.org/better-marketplace) - Highlights research to explore why the pathways from school to career are broken, leaving students and job seekers unprepared and unsupported.
