Embracing Life's Journey: From Career Changes to End-of-Life Planning

Have you ever sat at your desk, juggling the demands of work with the whispers of unfulfilled dreams? We've all been there, and in this heartfelt episode, we peel back the layers of finding joy in our careers, the courage to make life-changing decisions, and the hilarity that ensues when work-life balance tips sideways. We share our transformative journeys—reminding us that the quest for authenticity is both universal and full of unexpected turns, and like a Thoren  Bradley on TikTok who lights up the entrepreneurial world from chopping wood to selling with his scented candles... is this something me, Rick and Cynthia can also do?  

But life's not all about careers and aspirations; it's about the more profound moments too. We get up close with death care and the cultural poignancy with our guest Keith from the funeral industry. Meanwhile, Cynthia opens up about her fascination with forensic pathology and the stark realities of preparing for end-of-life responsibilities. Together, we uncover the thoughtful side of death care, and the love embedded in planning for the inevitable, delivering a conversation that's as enlightening as it is unexpectedly uplifting.

Wrapping up this episode, we tackle the sobering statistic that two-thirds of Americans leave their families in the lurch by not preparing a will or trust. It's a candid discussion on the importance of specifying our final wishes and a reminder that looking ahead can be an act of joy, a final gift to our loved ones. So join us on this journey that traverses from the daily grind to the eternal, and let's celebrate life, laughter, and the legacy we leave behind.
