If you're in midlife, the answer might be both sobering and surprisingly motivating. After losing my mother in January, I've been thinking deeply about how mortality illuminates what truly matters in our lives.When we do the math—25 to 35 summers remaining for those of us in our 50s or 60s—we suddenly see time differently. Not as an endless resource to be squandered, but as a precious gift to be savored. How many summers have you already let slip by, lost in to-do lists, people-pleasing, overworking, or waiting for "someday" to arrive? This episode isn't meant to depress you but to spark a revolution in how you approach each passing season.Summer isn't about doing more—it's about being more present, more open, more authentically you. I share practical ways to reclaim your summer joy, including creating a "to-feel list" instead of a to-do list, saying yes to one experience you've always wanted to try, letting go of something weighing you down, and becoming a tourist in your own hometown. I even share my own revelation about using my backyard fire pit on a random Friday morning to capture that camping feeling I'd been missing.The beautiful thing about midlife is that we finally know what matters. We understand that time is precious, yet we still have enough time to explore, reinvent ourselves, and play. This is the perfect moment to stop living for others and start living authentically for ourselves—without apology or hesitation.Ready to make this one of the best summers you've had in years?
