I love how you say on your About page “that to learn is to grow is to live.” How do we grow if we haven’t had the time to experience what we need to learn? As Rod Stewart sang, “I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was younger.” Every day is a growing experience, a maturity that allows space where we have nothing to prove, only a deeper, and wiser sense of awareness of what it truly means to become older.

Hey, Lou! Awesome! Cheering you on!... I must confess I prefer the new WAGO title over 'midlife cues'. I've had so many cues over my life's journey & there's more semi-planned. So I can't see a specific midpoint right now ;-) I guess Bruce Feiler's Tedtalk also resonated deeply - Life is in the Transitions, given I've been through 37 disruptions, and 18 relocations! Did I share this one with you? https://www.carermentor.com/p/recommendation-bruce-feilers-life

I like the new name and also appreciated Midlife Cues as well but know that part of moving forward is often change so I think this is a great change for you. It also seems a bit more of an opportunity to look into the future because "We're All Getting Older" and that will be an interesting read in and of itself. Looking forward!

Woo hoo for WAGO! I’m on the WAGO wagon to meaningful, fulfilling experiences and living on purpose. I’m so glad we got to talk at the end of last year and I look forward to more brainstorming, Brainspotting and busting barriers with you! 🎉💗

I love the name change Lou and I love that it’s in alignment for you. That means it’s the right thing to do! One of my recent favorite books on the topic of aging is Radiant Rebellion by @karenwalrond. We are certainly alive at the right time to be having and promoting this conversation!! ❤️

To your point, I discovered "olderhood" is the ideal time in life to make a shift to be and live in a way that is truly aligned with who you are and what you want and need. Thank you for this, Lou.
