#34: The Courage to Start Over at 52 with Leo

Some stories carry more weight than others. This is one of them❤️‍🩹When we sat down to reflect on 2024 and share our hopes for 2025, we had no idea just how deeply this conversation would unfold.Leo opened up about his journey of rebuilding; navigating change, rediscovering purpose, and finding the courage to start fresh in his 50s. We knew it would be emotional.. but in that moment, we were reminded of just how much strength and growth this season has brought.Life’s transitions are never easy, but they offer us a chance to redefine what truly matters. Letting go of what once defined us isn’t about loss; it’s about making space for something new.So many of us walk through seasons of reinvention, uncertainty, and self-discovery. If you’ve ever been in that space, we hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not alone.This is one of the most raw and heartfelt reflections we’ve shared - one that has shaped us deeply, and one we hope speaks to you, too.00:26 Introduction: Welcome to 202501:23 Couple Q&A01:43 Rachel and Leo’s 2025 Aspirations04:14 Leo’s Big Announcement08:17 Rachel’s 2025 Mission10:26 The Power of Awe in Marriage13:09 Navigating Depression as a Couple 17:34 Losing a Job After 25 Years: Grief, Identity & Reinvention22:08 Finding Purpose in Closed Doors29:47 Lessons From Our Kids That Changed Us34:58 Leo’s Message to His Younger Self 36:25 Final ReflectionsFollow Rachel here: https://www.instagram.com/ms_rach/Follow Leo here: https://www.instagram.com/mr_agleooleo/
