On this episode of He Said, She Said – Primos Edition, we’re unpacking the highs, lows, and straight-up drama of being the oldest sibling. From the constant pressure to be the perfect role model to secretly feeling like the family’s unpaid parent, we’re getting real about what it’s like to carry the weight of being “the first.”

We’ll dive into the double standards that come with being the oldest—strict curfews, higher expectations, and dealing with parents figuring it all out on the fly. Plus, we’re discussing how these experiences shaped us (and maybe left us a little scarred).

If you’ve ever felt the burden of setting the example while trying to live your own life, this one’s for you. Hit play, grab your headphones, and don’t forget to subscribe—because oldest siblings deserve some recognition too!
