Navigating Nonsense
Are you continuing to navigate life and questioning what happened to get you to this point? Are you curious about how others view the nonsense of life that has seemed to become the status quo of our surroundings? Are you lost? Are you found? Are you worried? Or, are you in need of a good laugh or cry? Do you want to hear about a life that relates to yours?
Join us for honest, unfiltered conversations between two middle aged friends, a woman and a man, each sharing their unique perspectives and experiences as they navigate this stage of life.
Life can feel overwhelming at times - juggling responsibilities, keeping everything afloat, and wondering if you’re even doing it right...or, if you even NEED to do it right?
Welcome to the Navigating Nonsense Podcast. Here we’ll talk about relationships, health, aging, family, balancing work and play, attractions, and all the ups and downs that come with life outside of our youth and before our old demise (hopefully). Together, we’ll navigate the nonsense of life, knowing that sometimes it sucks…but it’s the only life we’ve got. So, let’s make the best of it. After all, what choice do we have?
