When I imagined my twenties, I pictured scenes from Sex and the City and Friends. Little did I know I'd actually be crying at my internships, getting my card declined at Whole Foods and sifting through crappy dates and fake friends. Not even Google or your mom can prepare you well enough to navigate the chaos of your early twenties.
From Here to Where is a community of ambitious young women transitioning into this defining decade. We're dealing with the normal things like first jobs and scary bosses... but also something more. A parent with a terminal illness. A quarter life crisis. A traumatic experience. A major financial hardship.
Together, our community is finding the beauty in the zig zag trajectory toward success. We're defining our own versions of personal happiness and turning pain into purpose.
These powerful interviews from inspiring women unmask the realities many of us deal with during this transformative time. Each episode offers stories and strategies you definitely didn’t learn in school -- hearing from those who have come before us, helping us navigate from here to where.
Special guest Kaleena Zanders joins us on this episode of the From Here to Where podcast. Zanders shares her insights as a black, female queer woman in the music industry and how she's shaking things up as a rising artist and changemaker.

Rebroadcast from Ep. 25 of The Hangry Mexican Podcast with FOX 11 Los Angeles' Oscar Flores, "Getting real with 'From Here to Where' podcast host Sarah Trott.
"When I imagined what my 20s would look like, I pictured movie-worthy moments from Sex in the City and Friends. I realized life actually turns out to be more like a blooper reel...cue horrible dates, fake friends, and scary bosses."
Those words are from my guest today, digital content creator and host/creator of From Here to Where, a podcast aimed at empowering women everywhere, Sarah Trott.
This Southern California native began her career in journalism while still attending school but life had a cruel twist that threatened to derail her dreams and forced her to reassess what’s more important in life. This is her story...
Empty shelves. Empty streets. Full of fear. Our world and the city of Los Angeles has completely flipped upside down in a matter of days.
An excerpt from the episode: "What I find most interesting is the way people react and cope to what’s happening. Panic. Denial. A combination of the two.
I currently live in Los Angeles, a city hallmarked for hedonism. The pursuit of personal pleasure. It’s no surprise to see so many people embrace the “f*ck it” attitude of invincibility. To be honest, that was me a week ago. But now, it’s hard for me to see that attitude as anything but utterly selfish.
Let’s be clear — this disease will not kill me or my peers. We are healthy, strong, young adults.
But this virus will very likely impact our parents and grandparents. Those are the ones who face the grim potential of this virus.
For me the “f*ck it” attitude hits personally."
