Is the midlife crisis a real thing? I've been curious about this for a while.
I mean, there are times I'm actually pretty thrilled to be in my 40s. There are times I get a little freaked out about it.
Stephanie McLaughlin is on the podcast this week to talk about that thing that happens to us around "midlife."
When she turned 40, Stephanie decided to have 40 drinks with 40 friends from her past. The project changed her life.
In our episode, Stephanie shares how this started the '40 Drinks Project,' a movement that challenges the stigma around the midlife crisis narrative. Stephanie shares the unexpected wisdom she uncovered via the laughter and reminiscence she shared with long-lost friends.
One of the things Stephanie uncovered in this project is how her childhood memories were the secret ingredients to understanding her present self. She is now on a mission to wash away the "ick" around the idea of midlife, and to show people how it's actually a chance to turn back toward the things that brought you joy as a child.
