Unfiltered with Roxy – Episode 17:
48ish Life Lessons at 48 (Part 2)
Welcome back to Unfiltered with Roxy! In Part 2 of my “48ish Life Lessons at 48,” I’m continuing to unpack what I’ve learned, loved, and lived—lessons that are still unfolding with each passing day.
Episode Summary:
This episode is all about pouring from a full cup, loving your body through the aches, and giving people their flowers while they're still here. Whether you're on a healing journey, balancing family life, or just trying to get the dishes done—there’s something in this episode for you. 💛
✨ In this episode, I talk about:
Why you can’t pour from an empty cup
How doing the things you love—like gardening or laughing at funny animal videos—can refill your spirit
The reminder that "these are the good old days" even if they don’t feel like it
The importance of showing up for people—your presence matters more than your paycheck
Following your dreams so you don’t live in a cycle of “shoulda, coulda, woulda”
Reading and learning from others’ stories so you don’t have to relearn the hard way
Giving people their flowers while they’re alive (a tender moment honoring my mom)
Why it's worth it to clean the dishes at night (you’ll thank yourself in the morning!)
The power of making sure everything in your house has a home
Learning to love your body for carrying you this far, even through pain and healing
💬 “Don’t live in shoulda, coulda, woulda. Try the thing, buy the skates, see what lights you up. If it’s not for you—resell it. But don’t hold back.”
