We thought it was time to review what we have learned so far on our podcast journey over the past year. Our new sense of ease comes from learning that things don't always go our way... some things are not in our control. And that we are ok with that. We have learned to be flexible as we have grown older vs. getting more rigid.






Everyone has their own path
We have heard so many versions of open nesting on the podcast this year. Thinking about our guests - some of these people are doing simply amazing things! From tours in Italy to entrepreneurship in Costa Rica there are so many things that can be accomplished in life's Act III. Hearing about these various pursuits we are just invigorated by the possibilities.
And our learning does not stop with business and travel. Our interview with Pat Whitty stands out. A true "modern elder," Pat opened our eyes. You can hear the full episode here. Pat Whitty Modern Elder.
We talk about how "giving each other space" has really helped us both develop our own individual pursuits. And we find this to be so incredibly valuable.
And one more thing... if you want to hear about how we opened up to our kids about our own open relationship, listen to our interview on Kitty Chambliss' show "Loving without Boundaries."
Enjoy the episode. We are looking forward to the next 40 episodes of The Open Nesters Podcast.
