Twenty Something is a raw, honest community for people in their twenties (or anyone who still feels like they are). Here we overshare, laugh at our own chaos, and unpack what’s called the ‘defining decade’—all in an effort to set ourselves up for the future and build the lives we actually want. With a mix of real talk, expert advice, and dinner-chat energy, it’s for the dreamers, the overthinkers, the ones still paying off student loans while Googling ‘how to be an adult,’ and anyone who secretly wonders if they’ll ever make it to the dream life they’ve always imagined. Basically, it’s your group chat—but with a little more wisdom and a lot more honesty. Thanks for being here!

Politics and the news can feel impossible to keep up with. There’s always another headline, TikTok, breaking story, opinion, or person telling you what you should believe; and sometimes trying to stay informed just leaves you feeling even more overwhelmed. So what do we do? A lot of us get overloaded and stop paying attention altogether.In this episode, Olivia sits down with 10x Emmy-winning journalist Spencer Joseph to talk about how to actually stay informed without letting the news, and all the emotions that come with it, consume you.Olivia and Spencer also talk about how algorithms shape what we see, why your social media feed can make one perspective feel like the only perspective, how to spot bias and lies, how to hear people you disagree with without abandoning your own beliefs, and why it’s okay to say, “I don’t know enough about that to have an opinion yet.”Spencer shares what he’s learned from years working inside the news industry, including how stories get reported, why breaking news rarely gives you the full picture, how to recognize more trustworthy sources, and why going back to original documents, videos, and reporting can completely change the way you understand a story.If politics stresses you out, you’ve stopped following the news altogether, or you just want to become a more thoughtful and informed person, this episode gives you practical ways to understand what’s happening in the world without letting it take over your life.Connect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnettConnect with Spencer: Instagram: @SpencerJosephTV
Tyler Hall was in New York City preparing for one of the biggest moments of his career when he got a call that changed the course of his life: his wife, Brooklyn, was being rushed to the hospital.What followed was a flight home believing he may have already lost the person he had known and loved nearly his entire life.In this episode, Olivia and Tyler talk about the experience that divided his life into “before” and “after”, and what nearly losing his wife taught him about success, family, faith, presence, and what actually matters.Tyler also opens up about healing after trauma, learning to surrender what he couldn’t control, the power of talking about the things we’d rather avoid, and why he created The Rollercoaster Podcast, the #1 trauma podcast in the world, to help people feel less alone in the hardest moments of their lives.CONNECT WITH TYLER Instagram: @tyler.hall Podcast: The Rollercoaster PodcastCONNECT WITH OLIVIA Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett
NFL wide receiver and former BYU standout Chase Roberts joins Olivia to talk about what it looks like to choose faith when you have absolutely no idea what comes next.After injuries disrupted his NFL Combine preparation, Chase was advised not to run the 40-yard dash. He chose to run anyway, and finished with the slowest time of the receivers who participated. But for Chase, that moment became about something bigger than a number: deciding whether he was going to live his life in fear or move forward in faith. And wouldn't you know it? Chase is now playing for the Las Vegas Raiders. Chase and Olivia talk about trusting God when His plan looks different than yours, finding peace in uncertainty, feeling behind in your 20s, unanswered prayers, breakups, identity beyond achievement, and why some of the hardest seasons of our lives may be the ones shaping us the most.Chase also shares what it’s been like going from BYU to the NFL, stepping into an uncertain future with the Las Vegas Raiders, and using his platform to point people back to God.If you’re in a season where you can’t see how everything is going to work out, this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to know the ending to move forward with faith. Uncertainty can be your greatest asset.Connect with OliviaInstagram: @twentysomething_podcastTikTok: @twentysomething_podcastYouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnettConnect with ChaseInstagram: @chase.roberts27Podcast: Two Point Conversion
Life doesn't always go the way we thought it would. Sometimes it's losing someone we love. Sometimes it's heartbreak, a friendship ending, a diagnosis, a career change, or simply realizing the life we pictured for ourselves isn't the life we're living.Krista Jones learned that lesson earlier than most. She lost her dad to cancer when she was just seven years old, was raised in large part by her grandparents before eventually losing both of them, and at 19 watched her mom battle breast cancer.But this episode isn't only about grief. It's about what happens after life changes you.Olivia and Krista talk about how to keep moving forward when something happens that you never would have chosen, why hard experiences can make us desperate for control, how to stop living in fear of the next bad thing happening, and what it looks like to let joy back into your life without pretending the hard things didn't happen.They also talk about relationships, anxiety, therapy, faith, and trusting God when life feels unfair.Because grief isn't limited to death. We grieve people, relationships, dreams, seasons, expectations, and versions of our lives we thought we'd have. And maybe moving forward isn't about getting back to who you were before.Maybe it's learning that you can carry what happened to you and still build a really beautiful life.Connect with Krista: Instagram: @kjostylesConnect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett
Aaron Martin never imagined he would leave the hospital with his newborn son, Parker, without his wife by his side.After what began as a normal Valentine’s Day turned into an emergency C-section, Aaron and his wife, Natalie, welcomed their baby boy into the world. Hours later, complications from internal bleeding took Natalie’s life, leaving Aaron to navigate becoming a new father and a widower on the same day.In this episode, Olivia and Aaron have an honest conversation about what grief actually looks like when the shock wears off and life keeps moving. Aaron shares the unexpected moments that bring grief rushing back, the complicated experience of finding joy while still deeply missing someone, and what he’s learning about raising Parker while keeping Natalie’s memory and legacy alive.They also talk about how to truly support someone who is grieving, why sometimes the most meaningful thing you can do is simply sit with someone in their pain, and why saying the name of the person they lost can be one of the greatest gifts you give them.This is a conversation about devastating loss, enduring love, fatherhood, faith, and learning to make room for grief and joy to exist at the same time.Connect with Aaron: Instagram: @_aamartin Connect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett
There are some experiences that force you to grow up long before you should have to.In this episode, Olivia sits down with Adi Tanner to talk about growing up with a mother struggling with addiction, losing contact with her for ten years, and the emotional journey of reconnecting after a decade apart.Together, they explore what forgiveness really looks like, how to set healthy boundaries without closing your heart, and why healing doesn't mean pretending the past never happened. Adi shares the mindset that helped her refuse to become a victim of her circumstances, break unhealthy cycles, and choose a different future for herself.Whether you're navigating family relationships, learning to forgive someone who hurt you, or trying to move forward without letting your past define you, this conversation is a powerful reminder that your story doesn't have to determine your future.There's power in boundaries. There's power in second chances.Connect with Adi: Instagram: @_aditannerConnect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcastTikTok: @twentysomething_podcastYouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett
Do you ever feel like you're reacting in ways you don't fully understand? Like you keep falling into the same emotional patterns, making the same decisions, or feeling stuck but you can't figure out why?In this episode, Olivia sits down with entrepreneur, speaker, and Counterfeit Emotions expert Curtis Morley to explore one of the most life-changing concepts we've ever discussed on Twenty Something: counterfeit emotions.Curtis explains that many of the emotions we experience every day aren't actually telling us the truth. Instead, they're counterfeit emotions that look and feel real but quietly keep us trapped in unhealthy patterns. Together, Olivia and Curtis unpack powerful counterfeit emotion pairs, including:Misery vs. PainShame vs. GuiltAnger vs. AdvocacyFear vs. FaithResignation vs. SurrenderNice vs. KindThese emotion pairs reveal how our emotions shape our relationships, influence our healing, and impact the way we see ourselves.They also discuss why peace is the only emotion that cannot be counterfeited, and how learning to recognize these emotional patterns can completely change the way you navigate anxiety, conflict, and personal growth.If you've ever wondered why you keep repeating the same emotional cycles or wished you understood yourself on a deeper level, this episode will give you a framework you'll never be able to unlearn.Connect with Curtis:Instagram: @authenticcurtisPodcast: Counterfeit EmotionsConnect with Olivia:Instagram: @twentysomething_podcastTikTok: @twentysomething_podcastYouTube: @TwentySomething-OliviaBurnett
PSA to every woman: This episode will CHANGE the way you understand your body. It did for me.Have you ever felt emotional, exhausted, anxious, unmotivated, or completely unlike yourself and wondered what on earth is going on inside your body? Or maybe you’ve blamed something you couldn’t explain on a sentence like, “Hm. Must be my hormones,” while having no idea what that actually means.In this episode, Olivia sits down with hormone health coach Kiera Davis to make hormones feel understandable instead of overwhelming. They break down the four phases of the menstrual cycle and explain how each one can affect your mood, energy, workouts, productivity, dating, and relationships.Kiera also shares how her own experience with endometriosis, painful symptoms, and birth control led her to begin studying the female body and learning how to work with her hormones instead of constantly fighting against them.Olivia and Kiera discuss why consistency does not have to mean showing up exactly the same way every day, how to better communicate what your body needs, and why understanding your cycle can help you feel more empowered, connected, and confident in yourself.Your body is not working against you. It is communicating with you. Learning how to listen will become one of your greatest superpowers.Connect with Kiera: Instagram: @coachkwellnessConnect with Olivia: Instagram: @twentysomething_podcast TikTok: @twentysomething_podcast YouTube: @twentysomething-oliviaburnett
