Show Notes
[2:13] What was it like for you to write this book?
[5:07] As you’ve been aging, what has been happening in your soul?
[7:56] It’s interesting that the idea of living within our limitations is seen as a negative and something to be fought. Is part of aging learning to live within the limitations that have now presented themselves?
[9:58] As you are talking about your limitations, you’re smiling. How have you gotten to that place where this is not something to be fought and hated, but embracing where you’re at?
[14:29] In the book you talk about productivity and fruitfulness. Can you share about those things?
[17:51] Do you have a word for folks who are really struggling with navigating aging?
[25:57] Why do we fight growing older?
[27:52] You wrote a book on the Enneagram. How is that helpful in aging?
