Getting Your Sh*t Together
There is beauty in your chaos and even more in your acceptance of it. They say the 20s are for finding yourself but what about those of us that missed that memo? WTF, right?

Each Thursday, join Cynthia, a Brooklynite in her 30s as she adjusts to being sober (it's a thing), while navigating this crazy thing called life...one day at a time.
