How Far Have You Come?
Part 1 of Light of the World: Midlife Transitions and Spiritualities
Healing has many layers, just because we think we feel one thing, doesn’t mean that we’re done, it's just this continual peeling away of layers” - Leslieann Hobayan
In today’s episode, we have the 1st of the 4-part series I’m calling the Light of the World: Midlife Transitions and Spirituality. It’s my hope that over the next four episodes you can create a map of your life – where you’ve been, where you are now, where you are going –and how you might get there.
Midlife is the time when most folks take a look at their lives, after having realized the goals they set for themselves when they were in high school or college (or even younger). We think we’re planning a life we want to live, but what we don’t realize is that these plans were actually planted in our minds early on. Do you remember what you wanted to be when you grew up? Are you now that person you imagined? Or have you fallen into the mold of what you’re “supposed” to do (like work a corporate job for “security” - whatever that means!). Pause and listen to this episode to really consider how you got to this place. Are you satisfied with where you are? Have you come closer to your dreams? Or further away?
For this first episode in the series, I’m inviting you to take inventory. How have you come to this place where you are now? In order for you to figure out where you want to go, you need to take a look at how you got to your present moment.
For next week’s part 2 will check in with where you are now. Listen in!
