About this listen
"At some point, you realise you didn't consciously choose this life. You just ended up here."
Episode 7 of Midrising Conversations. What it means to live on autopilot — and what happens when something finally wakes you up.
Gill and Barbara talk about the moments that force change, the pressure to keep going when something feels off, and the real difficulty of living intentionally when life keeps moving.
This isn't about having it all figured out. It's about noticing, adjusting, and asking better questions.
Because maybe the real question isn't "what should I do next?" It's: am I actually happy?
