Have A Great Mid-life Crisis – MBFLP 194

A Production of the Ultimate Homeschool Podcast Network.

“Is midlife crisis even a real thing?”

The question arose in a Christian forum recently, and it’s a valid concern. Should we just expect something to go bad when we turn 40, and brace ourselves for a time of existential grief and self-searching? Or is it just a worldly excuse for a spin of self-indulgence once the kids are in high school?

This episode, we’ll talk about how to make the most of your midlife transition without making a fool of yourself!
