SORRY I’M LATE: The painful truth about feeling behind in life, love, and work
Ever felt like you’re running behind in life—while everyone else is ticking boxes, buying homes, and smashing careers? In this brutally honest episode, Rox and Rich unpack what it really means to be a “late bloomer.” From chaotic finances to relationship disasters and career false starts, they explore the deep shame that can come with feeling like you're years behind your peers—and how ADHD, trauma, and a lack of support often fuel that spiral.
Rox opens up about hitting rock bottom in all three areas—money, love, and work—by her mid-thirties. She shares the terrifying debt, the hyperfocus heartbreaks, and the endless job hopping that left her feeling broken and hopeless. But through small steps, vulnerability, and a hell of a lot of therapy, she began to rebuild—and Rich, the bank manager she accidentally fell in love with, helped her see that being “late” doesn’t mean you’re lost.
Whether you’re in your twenties, thirties, or fifties, this episode is a love letter to anyone who feels behind. It’s not too late to start again. It’s not too late to change your story. And it’s definitely not too late to create a life that finally fits. This one’s for the screwups, the slow starters, and the quietly resilient. You’re right on time.
