Life in the Middle with Sharona Patrice
Episode 22: It’s My Birthday
It’s that time of the year again – my solar return around the sun. It’s my birthday!
I’m sharing the ups, downs, and revelations of each decade in my life up to this point. In this episode, I recall lessons from my twenties' uncertainties, the self-assured strides made in my thirties, and the journey to clarity that being in my forties brings. It's a candid conversation about working to maintain a youthful spirit and reshaping attitudes toward aging. This is my version of the story, but it's also an acknowledgment of all the stories contributing to our collective journey toward self-assurance and clarity reached during these personal turning points.
What do birthdays mean to you? How do you celebrate and acknowledge this yearly milestone?

“I feel like with age comes wisdom, comes experience. I feel like there's a lot of depth and value in becoming older.”
