Finally, we have the “real talk” portion of the program, where life comes at you and says, “Hey, time for a reality check!” Getting older has a way of making you rethink, well, everything. The things I thought I knew at 25? Completely turned on their heads by now. Grief, growth, and all the “who am I?” moments have their way of showing up when you least expect them—like during that midnight scroll through old photos or when you’re trying to find the energy for the next big step.
Some days, you start wondering what it all means. Why am I here? What am I supposed to be doing? And then you remember—oh yeah, adulting, bills, and those dogs that think they own you. Life is messy, y’all, and while I don’t have it all figured out, I’m learning to embrace the journey as it comes. The ups, the downs, the good days, the “I’m not leaving the couch” days—it’s all part of this wild ride.

So that’s the gist, folks. Life at 40-something is a constant balancing act of adulting wins, dog-parenting chaos, self-care struggles, and those deep, soul-searching moments we didn’t quite see coming. If you’re out here just trying to get by, one day at a time, know that you’re not alone. Pull up a seat, grab your snack of choice, and let’s take on this beautifully unhinged journey together. Because life’s way more fun when you’re just wingin’ it—dog hair, takeout, and all.
