Letting Go of The Life You Wanted and Embracing the Life You Have With Guests Mikala Albertson and Jennifer Arnspiger
Manage episode 445706549 series 3498578
Midlife is a great unraveling and re-envisioning/reconstructing. It’s a time of hard and brave work and this work (if we are able to say yes to it) takes us deeper and deeper into freedom and joy (though this does not mean joy feels accessible in every moment). We are invited repeatedly to come face to face with reality, grapple with all our expectations and illusions about how life should be and how it will be if we follow the right rules and jump through all the right hoops…. when it turns out that life is not quite so controllable. I have been brought to my knees over and over.
I’m happy today to welcome two guests to join me for a conversation around Letting go of the life you wanted and embracing the one you have.” We talk about addiction, grief, perimenopause/autumn seasons, and more.
