Ep. 50- Expecting and 40: Embracing New Life and Reflections on Aging

More Than Your Age

It’s the 50th episode!!!! I can’t believe it! How have 50 episodes come in what I feel is short amount of time?! But it has, and I am grateful to be here. Coincidentally, the 50th episode coincides with my 40th birthday! Well… just a few days after, but I decided to use this episode as a solo episode to reflect on turning 40, what comes with it, and everything in between. Enjoy this short episode and thanks for celebrating with me!
