Project Alchemy: What Happened in Between?
by Coby Sheehan
How does one live a joyful, content, and purposeful life? More importantly – how do we know if we're doing it? Project Alchemy is a podcast series attempting to answer these questions, featuring interviews with middle-aged adults who have found a place of fulfillment in their lives. As they give their thoughts on what a meaningful life looks like, they will be telling their "in between" stories; that is, how they got to where they are. They will offer insight into how to stay true to your heart, carve your own path, and realize that wealth and success may not be as satisfying as society builds it up to be. That's not to say one can't be financially successful and live a life filled with joy – but there seems to be something more.
