It's amazing: we've reached our 300th episode! Thank you for supporting us! We have some pretty entertaining discussion on aging in this episode, from two generational perspectives. We also visit the touchy topic of Biden and Trump being too old to be running for president, and what society has convinced us the definition of "old" is. Ageism is real - and it doesn't just affect the older generations. Listen in! Here is the link to the Facebook Group we just created...we want to connect with...

Sometimes...well, most of the time, life can seem pretty underwhelming. It could be so much different, though! We just need to remember how much there is around us that is truly awe-inspiring.

Teresa guides you through a 10-minute visualization to help you begin to inspire awe. Please subscribe today! Do you love watching podcasts?...
