Ep 125 Finding Midlife Mastery through The Joy of Having Fun
Welcome to episode 125, a takeaway episode for my conversation with Heather Nawrocki on episode 124. Three key points we discussed are:
1️⃣ Social connection is good for you.
2️⃣ Fun is for everyone at any age.
3️⃣ Fun across the 5 pillars of midlife.
I am all about helping you aim for the most fulfillment you can achieve across the five pillars of midlife: health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy.
I think you should aim to have fun in each of these five pillars. If that sounds a little strange or maybe out of reach, I want to give you something to think about.
Each of these five pillars takes intention.
It takes intention to be mindful of your health.
It takes intention to be devoted to a fitness routine.
It takes intention to have a meaningful career.
It takes intention to have meaningful and healthy relationships.
It takes intention to plan to leave your legacy in this world.
What if we intentionally aimed to integrate at least some sort of fun into each pillar? What would that look like? Even though I can’t suggest a one size fits all approach, on this takeaway episode I take a stab at what this could look like.
Tune in and discover the possibilities of your own personal approach to integrating fun into each of the five pillars of midlife.
