Ep 180: Four Metaphors for Turning 44

June 27, 2023/ Laura Tremaine

June is my birthday month, and every year I create a personal episode for the occasion. This year, instead of waxing nostaligic or sharing what I've learned in the last year, I'm taking us on a journey.

Of metaphors.

I'm sharing four metaphors that feel especially apt for life right now:

You are not lost

I hope you take something from this episode that helps you on your path.

I'm Laura Tremaine.

I live in Los Angeles. I'm a reader, a podcaster, a wife, and a mom.

At all times, I have (at least) 10 Things To Tell You. And I know that YOU have 10 Things To Tell.

Let’s share our stuff.

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends! ❤️ This is my life philosophy every day, but especially through the holiday season.

Our time is valuable, friends. And this doesn’t have to be a negative prompt. Sometimes taking space from something opens up room for something else, in a positive way.
