What happens when the life you've built no longer fits?
In this episode we hear from author, journalist, and book coach Carolyn Flynn to discuss her memoir Boundless and the unexpected opportunities that can emerge during life's biggest transitions.
As a single mother preparing to send her twins off to college while facing uncertainty in her journalism career, Carolyn found herself confronting a question many people face but few discuss: Who are you when your core identities begin to change?
Carolyn discusses the difference between memoir and autobiography, the power of storytelling, and why personal reinvention isn't just for the young. Carolyn shares insights on emotional agility, resilience, creativity, and what she calls "the second adulthood"—a stage of life where experience, wisdom, and freedom can combine to create entirely new possibilities.
Whether you're interested in writing, navigating change, or simply curious about what comes next in life, this conversation offers thoughtful perspectives on transformation, purpose, and the courage to begin again.
