Stability in Instability; the last two months of my 30s


Listen Later

In the last two months of my 30s, life finally looks stable on paper.

The apartment is settled. Work is stable. Milo is adapting beautifully despite his blindness. The routines are back. The chaos of moving countries, rebuilding life, paperwork, identity shifts, and survival mode is less loud.

But belonging and walking a path that doesn’t have a particular script… 

It’s different story.

In this episode, I reflect on what happens when your external life calms down, but your emotional and relational life still feels unsettled. When everyone around you seems to have their script already written (marriage, kids, family milestones) and you realize your life is anchored somewhere else.

I talk about the difference between the traditional life and what I call the creative life: a life anchored in growth, curiosity, community, and meaning outside the four walls of your house.

Sometimes what people call instability is not instability at all, it’s actual clarity. Sometimes it’s just a different life path that no one has named for long enough yet.

If you’ve ever questioned whether your path makes sense because it doesn’t look like everyone else’s—this one is for you!
