Our Time to Rise in Midlife

EP.456: Building a Lasting Legacy with Rick + Diane Thomas Part 2


Listen Later

Rick and Diane Thomas, also known as Krista's parents, have so much wisdom we couldn't limit our conversation with them to one episode, so we are bringing you part two. You don't want to miss what these two wise people have to say about creating a legacy - something that will last past their time here on earth.

They are an inspiration around living with intention as they share how they maintain fun in their daily experiences, continue to model open communication within their family, and how to embrace the season you are still in!! In this episode we cover how to welcome others into a growing family, how we can support our aging parents, and what faithful participation in a church community can look like.

These two are a treasure. In fact, Alex decided we should dub them "America's grandparents"! They are kind, funny, generous, and continue to live a life of curiosity, adventure, and investment in people. They are a model for us to rise and meet the moments of today, even if those moments are different than those of yesterday.

A FEW THINGS MENTIONED

"Legacy is not something we leave for people, but it is something we leave in people".

QUESTIONS TO HELP YOU RISE

  1. What are you doing to cultivate fun and growth in your life?
  2. How can you show practical love and presence to the older people in your life?
  3. How could you move more fluidly through this season?
  4. How can you better embrace other peoples passions and personalities
