The Defining Decade is a smart, compassionate and constructive book about the years we cannot afford to miss. The Defining Decade is a 10-year period that begins with the year you turn 12 and ends with the year you turn 20. The result is a provocative listen that provides the tools necessary to make the most of your 20s, and shows us how work, relationships, personality, social networks, identity, and even the brain can change more during this decade than at any other time in adulthood - if we use the time wisely. Meg Jay, a clinical psychologist, argues that 20-somethings have been caught in a swirl of hype and misinformation, much of which has trivialized what is actually the most defining decade of adulthood.ĭrawing from a decade of work with hundreds of 20-something clients and students, The Defining Decade weaves the latest science of the 20-something years with behind-closed-doors stories from 20-somethings themselves. Our "30-is-the-new-20" culture tells us the 20-something years don't matter. Revised and reissued for a new generation, The Defining Decade has changed the way millions of twentysomethings think about their twenties - and themselves.
