Visioning & Future Casting In Midlife

Time is slippery—especially when you’re standing in midlife, looking both forward and back. Today Meagan and Sarah continue unpacking one of the most elusive and shape-shifting concepts we wrestle with: time. How do we imagine the future, how do we plan for it (tarot cards, anyone?), and how does our relationship to longterm planning and future-casting change in our forties? We explore the common traps we fall into when envisioning what’s next, the lessons that still haven’t quite landed, and how midlife has reshaped our goals, timelines, and even the way we dream. Join us! This is Part 3 of a three-part series about Time running this spring. Check out Part 1: On Balance & Busy-ness and Part 2: Time-Saving, Time-Shifting, Time-Surrendering .
