Somehow, Life Works Out

In this episode of the More Donut Podcast, we talk about what happens when life doesn’t go according to some perfectly laid-out plan—and how sometimes that turns out to be a good thing. We talk about becoming a teenage mother, trying to figure out what you’re supposed to do with your life, and eventually finding a successful career in teaching and getting to make a living doing something you genuinely love. We also get into raising boys in today’s world and the pressure boys often feel to hide the sensitive, emotional side of themselves. What do we lose when we teach boys that being vulnerable means being weak? This conversation is really about growing up, raising kids, finding your way, and realizing that you don’t always have to know where you’re going. Sometimes you float through life, make the best decisions you can along the way, and somehow things have a way of working out. And when you finally look around, you realize just how great life can be.
