What Happened to All the Cool Kids? Exploring “Coolness” and Conformity in Mid-Life

In this episode, Margo and Tashira ask the question that has been on our minds lately: What happened to being interesting? We talk about the shortage of cool, curious people and when being smart somehow became uncool. Has fitting in always been the goal, or was it once a privilege to stand out and be multidimensional? We dig into the tension between uniqueness and online conformity, what we lose when we edit ourselves for public consumption, and how social media shapes our individuality and belonging.
