What's Next?

from Strangers With Kittens · host Eileen Kelly

Send us Fan MailRemember that feeling you used to get when the world surprised you? Like when you learned that the popsicle sticks had jokes on them or the first time you snuck out of the house after dark. You didn't know what was coming next. There was an electricity surging through the day, and around every corner there was something new. There was always something to do, or someone to see; everyone had a different story, and it wasn't coated in fear or cynicism. We knew almost nothing. These days, it feels like nothing surprises us anymore. We've endured decades of terror, heartbreak, love, divorce, setbacks, and detours. Is Gen X stuck in a rut or finally resting? This week's episode confronts this period of life where we are caring for aging parents, healing our inner child, and watching our children mature into young adults. Many of us are losing our jobs because of our age, or because of AI. Others are losing their marriages. What's Next is about taking that moment to re-evaluate and decide what YOU want. A reminder that this is all made up, and you get to decide who you are Support the showStrangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.
