Sara and Joe decided for Valentine’s Day they wanted to hike the Grand Canyon rim to rim. Joe had never been there, and it’s one of Sara’s favorite places. The hike was more difficult and took longer than they anticipated. Not only was it harder, but Joe also wanted to take in the scenery and they just went at a slower pace but enjoyed almost all of it. (Listen to the episode for the tale of one less sleeping pad than needed). It was cold. And the north rim had a lot of snow, so conditions were also at points, challenging.
The real headline is through it all, they both loved being there and being there together. They enjoyed their Spaghetti dinner looking out at the most beautiful views, laughed a lot, and overall made it a great adventure.
The podcast talks a lot about mid-life and how to, in fact, Grow Younger. Both Joe and Sara feel that they are doing that. They both appreciate and have gratitude for life right now. They are in good places after each of their individual challenges and do not want to slow down. They want to keep making time for the things they enjoy.
People, as they get older, put limits on themselves. For Sara and Joe, they want to expand experiences and keep mind, body, and spirit aligned. They definitely both feel they are growing younger.
Their tips for growing younger:
1. Always stay fit. Create space for physical activity. It doesn’t have to be into the Grand Canyon. Any type of moving you prefer: a walk, a small hike, a bike ride, etc.
2. Keep your mind sharp and always be curious.
3. Prioritize the right relationships and purpose.
Do what you love. Have no regrets and keep living!
