In The Middle Podcast

We're back with part 2 of What I Wish I'd Know, a conversation where we look back at our recent history and consider what advice would have been helpful to know.

In the previous episode, we talked about what people told us but we just didn't listen or internalize it. Now, we talk about things we don't remember anybody saying.

What do you wish you would have known? We'd love to hear about it in the comments.

Questions can be powerful, even sometimes dangerous because they can uncover what's under the surface of our lives. In Episode 11, we talk about a powerful question we can ask ourselves, especially at the beginning of a new year so we can reprioritize what's important to ourselves.

Welcome to Episode 10, which you will appreciate if you've recently felt like you're in over your head.

Jump in as we talk about being aware of our personal capacity--things that cause us to hit our lid but also how we can grow a greater capacity to handle life, crises, and everything else that comes our way.

What does it take to be happy? How do we even define happiness?

Are you looking for a long list of things you should be thankful for? Yeah, we're not feeling that so much either.

Instead, we dive into something that we all need help with: Gathering with friends and loved ones when stress and anxiety are high. So join us if you need some solidarity, someone to tell you it's ok to feel a bit grumpy, and how not to rush to solutions for anyone deep in their feelings.

Josh and Sarah give a recap of Arthur Brooks's article, "Why You Might Need An Adventure," and talk about how risk and adventure help us mature and bring transformative creativity. They cover ideas such as The Hero's Journey, hitting a wall in your life, and why we need a guide to progress forward.

Need some adventure in your life? Your first step is to listen and learn!
