When you’re about to hit a big milestone, do you ever get reflective? It’s hard not to, right? Emily’s turning 39 this week, and she’s recapping eight lessons she learned in her 38th year. From discovering she might be a cat lady after all (!) to helping her kids spread their wings in new ways, Emily’s showing us that every year has lessons big and small in store for us, if we take the time to look for them.   Thanks to our episode sponsors!    BETTERHELP | Affordable, private online therapy — anytime, anywhere.
