Mixing Up Midlife

Melissa and Terri discuss their experiences figuring out what they give an *F about, following last week's ( Episode 64) discussion of the YouTube video from Mark Manson, author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a *F.

They are joined by a listener ( Hi Carrie!) who sent in an audio recording of her values.

The listener participation is EVERYTHING!

HOT FLASH: AirPods, losing them, finding them in strange places and brain fog.

NO COCKTAIL this week, although there's been a lot of Prosecco drinking. Try some!

WEEKEND WATCH:

Melissa's pick- Demi Lovato: Dancing With the Devil

Terri's Pick- The Gentleman

Terri and Melissa have been following the PopUpPurge, an incredible method for clearing your home and your mind, by author Mary Vraa, for a week. They've written their charters and have been tackling the clutter that has creeped into their homes. Who knew magnifying glasses and knitting needles could be difficult to get rid of?

Talk turns to TV and our latest watches, some reality TV, some French, and some weird watching habits.

They have a few Clubhouse invites for listeners, so make sure to listen to the end to see how you might get yours!
