The Art Of Imperfect Adulting
Real life doesn’t come with an instruction manual, and most of our stories don’t fit neatly into highlight reels or cautionary tales. Welcome to The Art of Imperfect Adulting, where we explore the beautiful mess of real life decisions that shape who we become.
In a world dominated by picture-perfect social media posts and dramatic reality TV extremes, this show carves out a space for the rest of us – the everyday adults working to figure things out as we go. Each episode features honest conversations with guests sharing their personal stories about the choices, changes, and challenges that defined their journey.
These aren’t stories of flawless triumph or epic disaster. They’re real accounts of life’s pivotal moments – both big and small. From choosing an unconventional path and setting unexpected boundaries to moving across the country or completely reinventing yourself, we dive into the decisions that seemed simple at the time but changed everything.
Host Amy Stone brings warmth and authenticity to each conversation, drawing out the subtle turning points and quiet revelations that make up the tapestry of adult life. Whether it’s a career pivot, a personal transformation, or simply choosing to do things differently, these stories remind us that there’s no single “right way” to navigate life’s challenges.
What makes this show different? We celebrate the middle ground – the space where most of us actually live. Our guests aren’t always gurus or influencers; they’re real people sharing real experiences. They’re the “adultier adults” who’ve walked similar paths and can offer insights from the other side of change.
You’ll hear about:
The small decisions that led to big changes
The moments of doubt and breakthrough
The unexpected wisdom gained from “wrong” turns
The reality of change versus the fantasy of perfection
The ripple effects of choosing your own path
Perfect for listeners who:
Are navigating life’s transitions
Feel stuck between where they are and where they want to be
Love hearing real stories from real people
Are looking for inspiration without the pressure of perfection
Want to feel less alone in their adult journey
Join us for conversations that will make you feel seen, understood, and inspired to embrace your own imperfect journey. Because sometimes the best stories come from the moments when life doesn’t go according to plan.
