Psychology of Our 20s Podcast: Exploring The Mind Of Twenty Somethings

The podcast landscape is a garden of psychological delights. Ear worthy, helpful, and insightful psychology / relationship podcasts grow like dandelions on a spring lawn. Some of the best include Hidden Brain (created and hosted by Shankar Vedantam), which is billed as a podcast that "explores the unconscious patterns that drive human behavior and questions that lie at the heart of our complex and changing world."

In almost every episode, Vedantam takes long-standing beliefs we hug like a "child's blankie"  and carefully strips away at our fortress of misconceptions.

The ABC (Australian Broadcasting Company) podcast All In The Mind offers episodes such as You’ve got the music in you, which explores how music affects us from the womb through the rest of our lives — and what new research tells us about its measurable impact on our mental health.

Therefore, a successful and notable psychology podcast needs a specific attribute that separates it from the thousands of other psychology podcasts. The Psychology of Your 20s podcast has that granular feature -- a podcast for those in their 20s. Boomers, and other generations beware. This is a heat-seeking missile aimed precisely at Gen Zers.

That's why iHeartRadio just announced Psychology of Your 20s will join iHeartPodcasts. The popular health and wellness podcast aims to make psychology more accessible and applicable to the everyday experiences of those in their 20s.

In Psychology Of Your 20s, host Jemma Sbeg explores the science, research, and concepts behind the defining experiences of this critical decade – from imposter syndrome, the myth of the dream job, and friendship breakups, to career anxiety, therapy, and heartbreak – to show how everything is psychology, even in our 20s. 

In recent epidotes, host Sbeg has tackled "Why we outgrow our friendships" and "The complete guide to therapy in your 20s."

Give the podcast credit. It knows how to produce shows perfectly aligned to the interests and life experiences of its target listening audience -- twenty somethings. However, for those not a member of that age-specific club, listening to this podcast can offer you greater insight into your 20ish son or daughter, niece or nephew, friend, grandchild, or employee. You don't really need to walk a mile in their shoes. You could listen to this podcast.

Psychology of Our 20s launched in 2021 and has since amassed millions of downloads. The podcast is one of the top wellness and self-help podcasts globally, having reached top charts of all podcasts in four countries across the U.K., United States, Australia and Canada.

 Jemma Sbeg is a psychology graduate and mental health advocate living in Sydney, Australia. "I started this show as a passion project and have poured so much of my soul into it, so finding the right partner to take it to that next level was crucial. I'm so excited to be working with iHeartPodcasts. They are the perfect home for my show, and I couldn't be more proud of the partnership we are creating."

New episodes of Psychology of Our 20s will be available every Tuesday and Friday.
