243. Living From Within
from Now That You Ask · host Akasha Halsey
As I look back over the many turns my life has taken - the careers, moves, relationships, and the quiet inner thread that seemed to guide them all - I begin to see how much of my journey has been shaped by listening to that voice inside. I think about the different ways people choose to live: some rooted in one place with lifelong connections, others pulled outward by curiosity and change. Both, it seems to me now, require their own kind of courage. As I near eighty, I’m learning that daring doesn’t always look like grand adventure. Sometimes it’s simply the willingness to keep listening, to reconsider, to try again, and to trust that the voice within still has something important to say.Now That You Ask is a podcast that looks at topics that range from death to desire, and from wondrous to downright whacky. Join host, Akasha Halsey as she takes listeners on a journey through her writing and experience with life’s most persistent questions.Thank you for listening!Listen to more episodes like this and subscribe to updates at https://nowthatyouaskpodcast.com
