It's the most freeing feeling to be over 50! What once unhinged me, I no longer feel a prisoner to. Knowing yourself and honoring ALL the parts of you is the best way to live a wholehearted life.
In this first episode of Season 2, for Beautiful Second Act, I talk all about how I had a breakdown in my early 30's, trying to be and do all the things I thought a wife and mother were supposed to do. Being on the other side of that time in life, I have such perspective now, and realize we waste so much of our time in life trying to be something for all the wrong reasons.
Join me by listening to Beautiful Second Act, and share with your friends how we can celebrate life, take better care of ourselves, and learn to love living out loud, this glorious and wonderful second half.
I talked of a movie recommendation called Calendar Girls. Click the link for more info. It's a fantastic film celebrating life, loving, and community. By the way, it's also hilarious.
If you are interested in buying a copy of my book, AFTER THE FIRE, click the link and if you have time, please leave a review on either Amazon, or Goodreads. It helps more than you know.
Thank you so much for listening and please join the Facebook Group, Beautiful Second Act, where we share, motivate, and have weekly Friday Night Wine, and Sunday Morning Coffee chats. I'm also on Instagram at beautiful_second_act.
Have a wonderful week.
Patti
