Turning 35: Reflections on Aging, Boundaries, and Not Everything Being That Deep -- Solo

Welcome to my Tent

In this solo episode, Sarah gets introspective as she approaches her 35th birthday, sharing thoughts on aging, personal growth, and life lessons learned. With being mid-30's, she chats:

• The gift of getting older: Appreciating each year after losing Pop when he was only 72.
• The joy of learning from others: Embracing the fact that you can't know everything.
• Leaning into authenticity: Shedding the people-pleaser persona and embracing her true self.
• The time vs. space conundrum: Why having time doesn't always mean you have the capacity.
• Taking care of your body for the long haul and musings on some of the misuse of her body in prior years (RIP knees).
• Aging gracefully: Embracing changes and resisting societal pressure to look 25 forever.
• The art of not responding: Learning that not everything requires a reaction or is "that deep."

We also chat:

• Sarah's near-miss as a 4th of July baby (Mom tried, but Sarah was too cozy in there. SRY MOM).
• A brief ode to being a 90s kid and watching "weird shit on TV."
• Why bodies are not meant to be static. The only static Sarah has is static cling on her clothes.
• A candid chat about Botox and the internal debate of "Why am I doing this?"

Not everything is a fire drill, especially how the silverware is put away. Save your energy for the stuff that really matters! Like listening to this episode!
