The final final episode of our Going on 40 series... we promise! Some of the TLDRs are below but you'll have to listen to the episode to get the commentary on Havenese farms, how Susan will become a media mogul-politician-cult-leader-pleasure seeker by 50 and whether we will be wearing Skechers or Hokas by then.
- How we viewed and experienced our parents set the default for our other relationships with adults and authority figures.
- How living a life true to yourself is easier said than done but will ultimately lead to more gratification and less regret later.
- In life and work, realizing what "game" you're playing is important and also recognizing that there are many different kinds of games in life and you have some choice in the matter.
- Your body and emotions send you important messages. If you spend your life suppressing them, they will catch up with you sooner or later.
- Sometimes, letting go of an issue you're struggling with is the only way out! See: Susan's thoughts on body image.
