I turned thirty years married this week. Thirty four years since Peter and I started dating, which means more time with him than without him at this point, and there’s a version of me sitting here doing the math going, wait, aren’t we still in our twenties? What happened?

This episode isn’t a strategy conversation. It’s a real-time snapshot of where I am right now, in this exact season, because I think there’s value in that too. I’m talking about the anniversary and what three decades has actually taught us about staying close through the challenges we chose and the ones we didn’t. I’m talking about my youngest heading to college in a month, and what it means to reparent yourself into a new stage of parenting instead of assuming you already know how to do it. I’m talking about finishing the first draft of my book and what happens now that it’s in the editing chair. And I’m talking about the last nine months, a move, a fresh start in a new place, and how much inner work showed up along the way that I didn’t see coming.

If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to keep building toward a vision while your actual life keeps handing you new chapters at the same time, this one’s for you. Come sit with me for twenty minutes.
