“I spent very little time focused on me. And because of that, often times I would just be stressed out and burned out and exhausted just trying to be who I was and or who I thought everyone wanted me to be … It's so liberating being in midlife and knowing just who I am, finally. I'm here. And you either like me or you don't. And that's really — I'm not going to say it doesn't matter to me, because I think we all still want to be liked — but that doesn't define me anymore.” —Laurie Reynoldson
Laurie Reynoldson, who lives in Boise and is a self-described “recovering attorney and former box-checker, people-pleaser and achievement junkie,” is Heather's guest and co-host on the latest episode of the Moving Through podcast.
Laurie and Heather have not yet met in person, but they had an instant connection when they first spoke about a month ago. Heather was seeking fellow midlife women to talk with for the podcast and one of Laurie's friends suggested she get in touch with her. From there, the pair chatted on the phone and set up a time to record an episode together (Laurie also is a podcaster; her show is called The School of Midlife).
This episode is long and juicy and Heather and Laurie cover a lot, from how they're adjusting to changes in their friendships and with their husbands, to figuring out what they want (and no longer want) for themselves, the ways we show up for our kids and other family members, the changes we’ve made in our careers, the dreams we have for the future and so much more. It felt like sitting down with an old friend and getting right into a deep, heartfelt conversation.
