In episode 75 of A Little Bit Dead, Gen X hosts Sandy and Kristy welcome 17-year-old guest Kaitlyn, a coworker headed to UT Tyler for nursing after unexpectedly falling in love with healthcare through a school CNA program. The conversation revisits “what we’d tell our 18-year-old selves,” with advice to stay grounded in college, don’t let relationships or drama feel like the end of the world, enjoy being young, and be responsible (including letting someone else do your taxes). They contrast generational attitudes about feelings and social media pressure, touch on politics and college bias, and swap stories about how time speeds up, raising kids, loss, and finding purpose. It ends with childbirth and hair-dye tangents. Thank you for listening!!!
