Summary:

What dream did you quietly let go of without telling anyone?

In this episode, we're turning the mic on ourselves and asking the questions most of us never stop long enough to answer. The dreams we abandoned. The guilt we carried for wanting more. What we're still trying to rediscover about ourselves, and what we want our lives to look like five years from now.

This one is not an interview. It's an invitation to stop, reflect, and ask yourself the questions that matter, because the dream you stopped chasing might still be waiting for you.

Key Takeaways:

• 00:00 Welcome back, and a quick laugh about recording a full episode last week, on equipment that didn't save it
• 04:18 What dream did you quietly let go of? Soap operas, gymnastics, dancing, law school, and the ones that still quietly linger
• 08:26 Was it fear, money, confidence, or timing that stopped you, and how much has actually changed for women today
• 14:53 Have you ever felt guilty for wanting something more for yourself? A conversation about worth, working mothers, and finally letting go of that guilt in your 50s
• 17:30 What part of yourself are you trying to rediscover: Cristie's inner little girl, DeAnna's quest to be more carefree, and what grandkids and big puffy clouds have to do with it
• 20:00 Five years from now, what would make you proud? A book, retirement, Paris, a letter to yourself, and the life you are quietly designing right now
