Some lessons only come with time.
In this episode, we reflect on what we’ve learned throughout the decades the mistakes, the growth, and the clarity that only experience can bring. This conversation is about how aging refines you, not diminishes you.
We talk about the lessons that shaped us in our 20s, the perspective that grounded us in our 30s, and the wisdom we’re still carrying forward. This episode is for anyone who’s ever looked back and realized: I couldn’t have known this then but I know it now.
If you’re navigating change, growth, or simply honoring how far you’ve come, this one’s for you.
