Turning 40 is a huge milestone and a birthday that feels different from other ones. A pivotal birthday brings up so many feelings - fear, excitement, anticipation, joy, apprehension, and tons of questions about what getting older means to us.
The older we get, the more we see how much we’ve lived, and how much more we still have to experience if we choose to stay young at heart and young in mind.
How do we age gracefully, on our terms, and continue to strive towards being the best version of ourselves?
In this very special episode of the Boss Mom podcast, I share my thoughts and feelings about getting older, as I count down to my 40th birthday.
