Welcome to Having A Time, where we keep it real, have a few laughs, and talk about the stuff that actually matters.

Life has a funny way of shaking things up—especially in your 40s. One minute, you think you have it all figured out, and the next, you’re navigating changes you never saw coming. In this episode, Navigating Transitions: Embracing Change with Resilience at 40+, we’re diving into what it really means to roll with life’s punches, adapt, and come out stronger.

We’re sharing our own experiences of getting smacked in the face by unexpected changes, the lessons we’ve learned, and how we’re stepping into 2025 with a whole new mindset. Plus, we’ll talk about the power of the people you surround yourself with—because let’s be honest, having the right people in your corner makes all the difference.

So grab your coffee, wine, or whatever fuels your soul, and let’s get into it!

And a question from us, Newfoundlanders, "Is you happy?"

Appreciating what your body does for you every single day isn’t always high on your priority list. You have to admit that you carry on with your daily routines without thinking twice about the amazingly clever chemical reactions that are working tirelessly inside your body. Living a healthy and energetic life is down to your one and only body, so you definitely shouldn’t take it for granted. Sometimes you’re way too hard on yourself and don’t love your body like you should.  Make sure you keep a firm eye on any symptoms and seek medical or advice of other professionals as soon as possible. Once you start honing in on your body and how it functions you will be thriving, not just surviving. So take note of all the ideas above and make sure you never take your health for granted again.

Do you let other people’s opinions about you and what you do impact you in negative ways? If so, whose opinions do you let influence you?

Do you listen to more or less everyone’s opinions, including strangers?

Or perhaps only your friends? Or your family? Or your people who don't have your best intentions?

At the most basic level, we can feel free to listen to the opinions of anyone that cross our path in some way. But “listen to” doesn’t mean “agree with”, or even “take seriously”.

And that goes doubly for other people’s opinions about us.

But at the same time, we also shouldn’t completely isolate ourselves from getting feedback from the outside world. Because that feedback can be an important tool for growth and for keeping us grounded.

Let's chat for a few minutes about how other's opinions could be stopping you from doing something you want to do or having a say in things they really shouldn't and how it's affecting you.

Or even better, who's opinions you should be seeking advice from.

Let's have a time!

Being grateful for the things in your life isn’t just something to think of every once in a while. As it turns out, those who practice gratitude experience a wide range of life-boosting changes. They’re more satisfied, experience lower stress and depression levels, and are happier people overall. Isn’t that reason enough to count your blessings more often?

Today's episode is taped from Mayan Riveria, Mexico and we sit and have a time embracing our blessing and have a yarn together! Come and have a listen and start counting yours:)

We hope you enjoy Episode 5.

When it comes to numbers we are surrounded by them daily. Sometimes knowing best how to take on those numbers and appreciate them...or maybe letting them go is the best chance we have a living a life where we embrace the data with gratitude! How do you feel when it comes to the numbers game? What does you scale mean to you? Your friends list? Your bank account? This episode we share with you some of our opinions and views on the numbers game.

Setting healthy boundaries is an essential life skill and an important self-care practice. Healthy boundaries create healthy relationships. While someone who's not used to setting boundaries might feel guilty or selfish when they first start, setting boundaries is necessary for mental health and wellbeing. Do you set them? Do you need more? What do you struggle with in defining them and how can you let go of some that are not longer serving you.

Growing in Newfoundland and Labrador is taken for granted by many of us.  But one thing we are for certain of is fact that our unique dialect has been talked about, known about, wrote about, and even made fun of us. On this episode, of Having a Time, we want to share a piece of home with you.
