i've noticed that a lot of gen z and millennial people seem to be choosing their career over love. there seems to be this sort of belief within young people that you can't have both and need to choose one or the other. i've kind of seen this narrative float around a bit on the internet and in person and it really got me thinking: is this true? do you have to choose one? do you have to choose being in love and being in a relationship or building a successful career? or can you have both? upon reflecting upon my own life, and thinking for a while, i realized i disagree with this idea. i think that relationships don't have to prevent success at all, in fact, i think being in a good relationship can nurture success. so that's what we're talking about today. we’re going to go over why i think this is true and why it could be true for you, too.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Hello.

  • A lot of people in my generation, and possibly the generation above me, which would be millennials.

  • I am Gen Z.

  • I've noticed that a lot of people in the millennial and Gen Z age group are choosing their career over love.

  • This might be something that is more prevalent in big cities, like Los Angeles, where I live, or New York, where I go frequently.

  • But I'm not sure.

  • This might be.

  • This might be a universal thing.

  • I'm not completely sure where this mindset resides.

  • Is it mainly in the big cities?

  • Is it also in more normal towns throughout the world?

  • I don't know.

  • I don't know.

  • But regardless, I've noticed that there seems to be this sort of belief within young people that you can't have both.

  • You can't have love and a successful career.

  • You have to choose one or the other.

  • And I've kind of seen this narrative float around a little bit on the Internet, a little bit in person, too, and it really got me thinking, is this true?

  • Do you have to choose one?

  • Do you have to choose being in love and having a relationship, or having a successful career, or can you have both?

  • And upon reflecting on my own life and thinking for a while, I've realized that I think you can have both.
