3 Life Lessons for Your 20s | Mindset Shifts That Change Everything | Ft Ashley Negron

Описание: The life lessons you don’t learn early will cost you later. In this episode, we unpack the three mindset shifts we wish we knew in our 20s — lessons that would have saved years of frustration, confusion, and unnecessary emotional friction personally and in our relationships.

We break down why assumptions quietly damage relationships, how emotional reactions create long-term collateral damage, and why mastering your “second thought” becomes the turning point between chaos and clarity. These life lessons aren’t abstract. They’re simple, practical, and deeply transformative when applied consistently.

You’ll hear how these concepts shaped our marriage, friendships, leadership style, and even day-to-day decision-making. Whether you’re in your 20s, raising someone in their 20s, or rebuilding patterns you never learned growing up, this conversation gives you tools to think better, respond better, and grow faster.

We also explore what happens when you don’t learn these lessons — how unchecked assumptions lead to distance, how reacting destroys trust, and how failing to pause can change the outcome of your day… or your life. This episode is heartfelt, honest, and meant to help you grow into a more grounded, emotionally intelligent version of yourself.
