“What would your life be like, you listeners in the mailbox, if you shifted your focus from seeking perfection, to embracing the beauty of progress?”, asks co-host Denyse. One of the best things about midlife is that by now, you likely have a better idea of who you are and a better understanding of what works best for you. Amy and Denyse are no strangers to pivoting when a plan needs to change and leaning into progress over perfection. In today’s special finale episode, co-hosts Denyse and Amy take a page from the 90’s sitcom playbook with a throwback episode that reflects on all the most impactful moments and quotes from Season 2 at the Mailbox. 

 

This season, Denyse and Amy chose to open up the Mailbox to some incredible guests talking about a range of topics from building a business to clearing fears through tapping to networking and building community through social media. In addition to the inspirational guest episodes, they also dove into some midlife moments, sharing what was going on in their personal lives. This led to discussions about caregiving and being in the sandwich generation and reflecting on the American obsession with always being “busy”. 

 

Whether you are an entrepreneur or not, there are many nuggets of wisdom throughout this past season that can help you get the most out of Midlife. We look forward to seeing you back at the Mailbox next season!
