In Joy The Show: You’re Not Behind: Reframing Timelines, Finding Joy, and Starting Over at Any Age
Welcome back to In Joy the Show—where real talk meets radical joy. This week, Blythe and Kari take a sledgehammer to the myth that you’re “behind.” Behind in career, motherhood, healing, dating, business… you name it. Spoiler: you’re right on time for your life.
Through laughter, honest stories (midlife pivots, divorce, and messy drafts-in-progress), and powerful reframes, they explore the difference between divine timing vs. deadlines, why comparison keeps us stuck, and how baby steps (even half-baby steps!) still count. Kari shares the stop-and-start journey of writing her fourth 30-day guided journal—Serenity—and how the pause added the “missing puzzle pieces.” Blythe offers a goosebump-worthy metaphor about elephants circling to protect the vulnerable—and why women often step into their deepest purpose in the second half of life.
If you’re in a season that doesn’t look like the plan, this episode is your reminder: there’s no invisible checklist, no scoreboard, and no late arrivals. You can begin again—today.
