Turning 50, Giving Up, and Finding Community EP 159

This is a special episode!  

Patty is turning 50 and shares her insights on this milestone birthday. She’s excited and said she “feels like it’s the age that I was born to be.”  

She shares that her 40’s felt like a time where she learned what to let go of. Making space. Most of the time we’re focused on what we can “get” or bring into our life.  

Nothing wrong with that, but Patty shares that letting go creates so much freedom that acquiring doesn’t always bring.  

Did you know that 5 is a number reflecting changes? It’s a 5 year, and that indicates a year that creates change. Patty shares that after learning to let go, and receive of course, it’s brought flow and the feeling of safety.  

Safety is underrated. We are wired to stay safe, but we often disregard it.  When we reach for new things, or new experiences that are going to bring us the life we’re searching for, we often feel unsafe. It’s what stops us.  

Patty also shares how valuable kindness is. She’s realized the courage it requires to be kind especially in the face of conflict. How different life is when we have been shown compassion.  

Lastly, Patty talks about community. The people in your life, the who more than the what in life defines so much. She credits the people in her life for her feelings of comfort, and love and pleasure and courage.  

It’s also why creating a community felt right this year. She wanted to create a space where people who get the “space for magic” stuff can share. We can do it from a common language, with people who are on their journey and want to support you on your own.  

It’s about being understood and accepted without judgement. The Divine loves us, and she wants everyone (you especially) to know that and feel that.
