Quarter-Life Questions - adulting made easy

Hey and welcome to Quarter Life Questions - the podcast that makes adulting a little less confusing. 


Hosted by Grace McIntosh (a fellow twenty-something who's just trying to figure it all out), this weekly show dives into the big and small questions we all have in our twenties - from money and careers to relationships and mental health. 


There’s no manual for adulthood (sadly), but this might be the next best thing.


Each episode features honest chats, expert advice, and zero fluff. Just practical answers to the questions we were never taught in school but now need desperately.


Got a QLQ of your own? Send Grace a message. It's @gracemcintosh1 on Instagram or @gracemcintosh_ on TikTok.


New episodes drop every Wednesday. 


Hit subscribe, join the ride, and let’s figure this adult thing out — together.
