In this episode, we invited Lauren to join us for a deep dive with no stated outline or plan, as we do with all our guests. Once we hit record and started, Lauren's perspective and reflections upon her own life's journey were both powerful and emotional. 

Lauren began to reference stages in her life, and she had names for them. We were both intrigued by this, so we asked questions surrounding these stages about what they meant and how they transitioned. 

She defined her transitions from Fighter to Survivor then onto Thrive. She explains her feelings about the upcoming stage of her life and does her best to describe her understanding of what's next. 

After this call Jenn, and I discussed how powerful and relatable this conversation was for us. We defined pivotal moments in our lives that we'd call stages and talked through them, which was challenging in some cases. 

I encourage you to listen to this and reflect on your life journey. What are the moments, events, and stages where you can measure before and after? Those are your stages.
