I Turn Your Quarter-Life Struggles Into Children’s Rhymes

I’m Samantha Jayne, the creator of “Quarter Life Poetry”. I wanted to make light of the daily struggles my friends and I face as mid-20-somethings. There’s a lot of missed expectations, frustrations, and self-doubt that I’ve been experiencing at this age. So I began writing poems and accompanying them with little illustrations and posting them up on Instagram and Tumblr.

I had no idea that a LOT of other 20-somethings felt the same way. Now with 50k Instagram subscribers, it’s been totally wild seeing people tag their friends in my poems and relating to them on a personal level. It makes me feel way less alone in my daily struggles, and hopefully makes other people feel like we’re all in this together. I hope you enjoy!
