We should be celebrating our middle years instead of dreading them. Lisa Jo Baker joins Julie Lyles Carr on this episode of The Modern Motherhood Podcast with a conversation that will leave you realizing how important mid-life really is.
- Lisa was an attorney back in the day. Hear how that experience has helped her with encouraging women.
- You’ll love Lisa and Julie’s conversation about all the time they spend shuttling kids around. Do you relate?
- What does being an adult actually look like?
- “I thought I would arrive at a point in time where I would feel like a grownup.” -Lisa
- The world seems to be telling us we peak when we are 18 or 19 and then it is all downhill. This isn’t true!
- What do we do with the hundreds of simply ordinary days? Don’t they count for anything?
- Ordinary is sexy.
- You are living an Everest moment but you just didn’t know it. – Lisa
- “The middle is the place where we might have outgrown the shape of our teenage jeans but have finally grown into the shape of our souls.”
- How does the word success and how we view success change our lives?
- Failure is a much better teacher than success. A great conversation about sharing our failures with our kids.
- Our identity must be locked into something more profound than success and failure.
- We are now the grownups! We are the ones being left in charge. How do we handle it?
- Falling Upward
