What's The Point

Peoples Mediashows.acast.com
nothing stays the same. everything is subject to change. how we sit in the uncomfortable and surrender to life’s ups and downs is one of the greatest skills we can acquire. it’s easy to think we’ll be happy “when”—we make a certain amount of money, meet the right person, get to a certain destination, but even after that, the goalpost is going to move. in this new season of What’s the Point? we explore how to navigate the critical junctures—both expected and unexpected that fundamentally change who we are—whether it be weight loss, career change, divorce, death, grief, breaking up or falling in love.
