🌴258. Do We Really Change? Asking for a Friend at 42


I turned 42 today—and yes, I was that person who posted about it from an airport lounge. Usually, birthdays spark me into dreaming up wild projects, but this year, my big reflection is simple: nothing dramatic has changed in my world, and I’m incredibly grateful for that.
In this episode, I share a birthday riff on aging, incremental growth, why stability feels like such a win, and how reunions often show us that people don’t radically change—they just become more themselves. I talk about Prosecco before noon, air fryers, my dad still beating me at parkrun, and why we’re all just one phone call away from life flipping upside down.
I’d love to know—what’s shifted for you in the past year?
