Here Be Dragons

Second Acts: The Art of Becoming


Listen Later

Who decided we only get one version of ourselves?

In this episode, Rachel and Clair explore the art of second acts — how we evolve not by starting over, but by becoming more fully who we already are. Drawing inspiration from Arthur Brooks’ From Strength to Strength, the concept of Wisdomnomics, and the idea of Ancient Grandmother Energy, they unpack what it means to move from proving to being, from speed to depth, from noise to meaning.

Whether you’re shifting careers, identities, or simply rhythms, this episode reminds you that transformation doesn’t belong to one age — it belongs to all of us.

Action Item:

What’s your second act — or the one whispering to you right now?
