Season 2 Episode 49: Does Time Really Fly?

A Blonde A Brunette and a Mic

Have you ever wondered why, as we grow older, time seems to slip through our fingers like sand? We have certainly felt that way, which is why we've dedicated an entire discussion to the fleeting nature of time and how it shapes our lives. As we giggle over the struggle to find guiding words for the year – with 'intention' leading for Julee and Michele keeping us in suspense – we'll take you on a heartfelt journey through the complexities of time perception, the struggles of adulthood, and the contrast with the endless summers of youth.
Join us as we navigate the art of staying present amidst the routines that make our days fly by. We share our personal milestones that stand out against the backdrop of life's hustle and remind ourselves of the importance of fresh experiences. Remember how as kids, the anticipation of Christmas morning seemed to stretch time to infinity? We'll chat about that and more, including how we shape our identities through the experiences we collect along the way – from the thrill of a first kiss to the beauty of a new travel destination.
To wrap up, we dive into the wisdom we can glean from the older generation; it's like uncovering hidden treasures every time we sit down to listen. For instance, Michele's Christmas chat with her 96-year-old mother revealed a well of stories that we all could learn from. We also talk about the importance of breaking routines and embracing the unexpected – because as we share, it's beyond the edges of our comfort zones where the real magic happens. So, whether it's seeking adventure or growing through life's curveballs, we hope you'll be inspired to start this new year with purpose and passion and benchmark those important moments by being present!
