Finding the Floor - A thoughtful approach to midlife motherhood and what comes next.
Listen to stories told by Camille Johnson as she reflects on her life raising a family of 5 kids, being happily married for 22 years, and finding the joy and laughter of it all. She has been trying to find the floor to her kids' rooms for a while and gets a peek about once a week. Come listen as she shares her journey of finding her floor both literally and figuratively as she contemplates, life, love, cleaning, pets, books, remodeling, being a taxi driver, finding wholeness, living as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and figuring out what she finally wants to be when she grows up. If this podcasting becomes a thing well maybe this is it. Thanks for listening!

“...When we love a piece of music, it reminds us of other music we have heard, and it activates memory traces of emotional times in our lives.” Lately I have been struggling to find the music that I like. This episode I explore a little bit the reasons why I may be struggling to find new music that I like. I also share why we as older adults tend to get stuck with certain bands and artists from our youth and young adulthood. It is harder to relate to more popular music, I discover, and according to one artist that is on purpose, to annoy the older generation. I also share how music from our youth brings back stronger emotion because we have stronger emotions and experiences at that time.
