Exploring Personality, Mastering Skills with Age, and Navigating Family Dynamics: A Personal Journey

The Modern Yoga Podcast

Have you ever wondered why some people thrive on social interactions, while others need solitude to recharge? That's a question Mary Beth and Joyce, tackle in this episode. They delve into the world of personality types, discuss personal experiences with introversion, extroversion, and even the possibility of being an ambivert. Mary Beth opens up about her struggle to keep her text and email inboxes clean, and Joyce reveals her personal journey of realizing she was an introvert after years of identifying as an extrovert.
Taking a turn towards the topic of aging, we discuss the importance of strategies, passion, and age in mastering skills. We share personal anecdotes, like how Mary Beth spent a decade taking tennis lessons, to illustrate our thoughts. We reflect on how our perspectives change as we age, becoming more discerning about where our energy and time should be spent. Mary Beth also shares her experience of going back to school at 40, proving it's never too late to learn something new.
Family dynamics and how they shape our relationships is our final topic. Joyce shares touching stories about her Uncle John and his influence on her life. They conclude the episode by discussing grief and loss, sharing personal experiences and discussing how to navigate these difficult times.
Join Joyce and Mary Beth on this journey as they explore these themes through the lens of their experiences.
