Mary Louise Kelly: No More Do Overs

Mary Louise Kelly: No More Do Overs

What happens when the people we built our lives around stop needing us? Or when we have to pick between our meaningful careers or our family? And what do we do with the ambiguous grief that comes with every expected and unexpected change? Today, Kate takes an honest look at juggling the demands on our time and on our heart with NPR’s Mary Louise Kelly.

Kate and Mary Louise discuss:

  • Debunking the women can “have it all” paradigm and what happens when the things we love come into conflict
  • The limitations of gratitude
  • How our callings pull us into a wider sense of who we belong to
  • How to savor (and mourn) all the lasts as your children grow older

This may be a conversation about parenting, but I think there might be something in here for anyone who wonders: Who am I as my relationships change? Can I still find myself there?
