3 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Hit 50

from Seeking Simplicity · host Louise Cartwright

Welcome to another episode of the Seeking Simplicity podcast. Today, I'm opening up a conversation around the 3 Things I Wish I'd Learned Before I Hit 50. I dive deep into the power of embracing the present, learning in layers, and tapping into the wisdom of our bodies. It's so easier to hanker after different outcomes, think we should be somewhere other than where we are, but isn't there more benefit to explore how staying present can be transformational. I discuss how our brains often create a vision of what could have been, without acknowledging the complexities and external factors influencing our lives. Our lives are a complex series of  sliding door moments, reminding us that our power lies in the present. I offer my belief thatchange doesn't happen in isolation. It’s not a single strategy or person that brings transformation, but rather the layers of learning that unfold over time and that by allowing ourselves to have different experiences and tapping into our body's wisdom, change can truly resonate and transform us on a deeper level. Finally I  highlight the importance of moving beyond relying solely on our brains. Embracing our body's innate knowledge can prevent us from getting trapped in fear and outdated conditioning. By acknowledging and addressing the ways our brains sabotage us, we can open ourselves to a richer, more holistic experience of life.
