Chell's Gen X Life

Gen X Life: From Latchkey Kid to Caregiver.

They say we’re the forgotten generation—Gen X—but we’re really just the kids who survived hose water and minimal supervision. Now I’m documenting the sequel: balancing the needs of aging parents while being bossed around by my pets. Join me for sit-down conversations about navigating midlife with a sarcastic edge and that house key still metaphorically around my neck.

I share my real-life journey toward a debt-free retirement—and how journaling and other creative outlets act as my “anxiety fire extinguisher.” This channel is about finding joy along the way, keeping my sarcastic edge intact, and admitting that if we don’t laugh at the chaos, we might just lose it. It’s more than surviving; it’s enjoying the ride—hose water and all.

Subscribe for the midlife chaos—stay for the creative therapy.
New videos weekly, and shorts uploaded Daily—let’s figure this out together.
