Ep. 608: Influence Isn't Important Anymore

from The Best Life Podcast · host Danny-J Johnson & Jill Coleman

As we get deeper and deeper into our 40’s, we’re finding ourselves less impressed with whatever everyone else is up to. Flashy lives and high follower accounts feel kind of meaningless and we’re happy to watch the next generation make all the same mistakes we did and care about all the things we used to. Having a million followers doesn’t mean you have a million dollars, and having a million dollars doesn’t mean you’re even happy. We’ll stick to doing what feels right to us and having conversations with interesting people, instead of influential people. Getting our boobs checked out [3:50]Curating friendships in our 40’s [7:02]“Success” feels less impressive now [11:28]Visibility isn’t the same thing as success [14:48]We’re passing the baton [18:40]History repeats itself [20:51]You’re allowed to change your mind [24:48]The Best Life Live?
