About Young Jealousy
You’ve had a thought that was too big for a text message and too real for small talk. You’ve been in a room full of people and still felt like nobody was quite saying the thing. You’ve looked at your life — the good parts and the complicated ones — and wanted somewhere to put all of it.
That’s why we’re here.
Young Jealousy is for the woman who is paying attention. To herself, to the people around her, to the world she’s moving through. The questions she’s turning over at midnight. The conversations she’s been wanting to have but hasn’t found the right room for. The things she’s noticed that nobody seems to be saying out loud.
This is that room.
What we are
Young Jealousy is a blog for women who get each other. We write about relationships, money, identity, career, culture, and the big messy questions that don’t fit neatly into any category. We are not here to optimize you or tell you who to be. We are here to think out loud — together.
You’ll occasionally find affiliate links and product recommendations on Young Jealousy. Here’s our promise: we only recommend things the Young Jealousy team has personally tried and genuinely loves. No sponsored content disguised as opinion. No products we wouldn’t use ourselves. If we link to it, we mean it.
What we are not
We are not here to sell you a lifestyle that requires ten steps and a subscription. We don’t pretend that women’s media has been serving us as well as it should.
We think you can handle honesty. We think you actually prefer it.
Who started this
Hi. I’m Zobia.
I’ve been building things on the internet since 2011 — businesses, brands, a web design company I ran for a decade, a clean beauty line, a consulting firm helping female-founded startups figure out how to grow. I’ve worked in Talent Acquisition for some Fortune 500 companies. I’m in my 30s, I’m based in Nashville, and I just have a lot to say — and not enough places that felt right to say it.
Young Jealousy is the project I didn’t realize I’d been building toward. It’s the blog I wanted to read in my 20s and couldn’t find. It exists because millennial women deserve more than content that was designed around an ad model — more than tips, more than rankings, more than someone else’s idea of what our lives should look like.
We deserve a real conversation. This is mine. I hope it feels like yours too.
You belong here.
Wherever you are in your story. Whatever you’re working through. Whatever feeling brought you here tonight.
All women welcome.
