Ever think about how you only get around 80 of any given day in your lifetime? Eighty birthdays, eighty Christmases, eighty Fourths of July — give or take. How many do you actually remember?

Some stand out for good reasons, some for bad, and most just blur together. What makes a day stick in your mind? Is it the people you were with? What happened? Or just how you felt?

As you get older, do holidays become less about you and more about helping your kids make memories? And when they grow up, will they even remember the ones you tried so hard to make special?

Is it even possible to remember every day? Would you want to? What if you knew which day would be your last — would it change how you spend it?

And if you could choose how many big moments you get in a lifetime, how many would be enough?

This episode reflects on those questions — and on how the days that really matter often aren’t the ones we plan.
