It's possible to seek personal growth without needing to disrupt a happy life.
Angela Brown shares the concept behind her book, Olivia Strauss is Running Out of Time. She wanted to present a story about a woman who is content and happy yet seeks change and personal growth without causing chaos in her life. This narrative deviates from the traditional portrayal of a woman needing to "find herself," which usually involves significant life disruptions.
Each choice, good or bad, leads to something important.
Angela emphasizes that every decision we make, whether a seemingly bad choice or a good one, contributes to our journey. These choices, she suggests, even the ones that lead to mistakes, are necessary stepping stones that guide us to our next phase. She credits the trials and errors of her past for leading her to become a writer and believes in the butterfly effect of choices.
Age is not a barrier to pivot and try something new.
Angela and Michelle discuss the societal expectations around age and career and how they challenge these norms. Angela shares her personal experience of publishing her first book at 40 and how she sees this age as a pivot point. Rather than viewing it as a time to settle, she considers it an opportunity to explore new paths, demonstrating that age should not limit personal growth and career changes.
