How does the powerful emotional pull of nostalgia connect to that midlife feeling of "how did I get here?" Why do we love looking back?
In this episode, we discuss:
- Why nostalgia increases during periods of transition and uncertainty (aging parents, growing children, career reckonings)
- The psychology and science behind nostalgia and memory
- Why parents often romanticize the baby and toddler years
- How nostalgia can deepen meaning, connection, and self-understanding
- Healthy ways to honor memories without getting stuck in the past
Here are links to some of the resources mentioned in the episode:
- University of Florida Medical Physiology Online: The Psychology of Nostalgia
- Emily Reynolds for The British Psychological Society: We feel more nostalgic as we get older
- Clay Routledge for the Institute for Family Studies: Nostalgia Reveals the Importance of Family and Close Relationships
- Joe Keohane for the Boston Globe: Why Does Parenthood Make Us Nostalgic?
- Hannah Seligson for the NYT: Being a Mother Is Hard Work. Is It Actually Harder on Millennial Moms?
