Finding the Floor - A thoughtful approach to midlife motherhood and what comes next.
Listen to stories told by Camille Johnson as she reflects on her life raising a family of 5 kids, being happily married for 22 years, and finding the joy and laughter of it all. She has been trying to find the floor to her kids' rooms for a while and gets a peek about once a week. Come listen as she shares her journey of finding her floor both literally and figuratively as she contemplates, life, love, cleaning, pets, books, remodeling, being a taxi driver, finding wholeness, living as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and figuring out what she finally wants to be when she grows up. If this podcasting becomes a thing well maybe this is it. Thanks for listening!

Ideas of ways to connect when you are feeling lonely.
“You can really kick off a positive cycle of increasing transparency and closeness.” This episode is a part 2 of sorts to the friendship from episode 190. I am talking about things to do when you feel lonely. I had a great newsletter from Ellen Hendricksen that started it off with 4 things you can do when you feel lonely. She begins by defining loneliness which I share. Then I especially liked the suggestion which she says, “Use each bout of loneliness as a cue to make social plans.” Then I also share some things from two other articles. Two highlights that I share are: When you are feeling lonely - call your mom and turn that feeling of loneliness into an opportunity to serve and drop off something for someone. There are a lot more suggestions as to what we can do when we are feeling lonely. So if things are feeling that way for you - come listen for some ideas and try out a few.
