The Eyres talk today about perhaps the most important question we can ask ourselves... and continue to ask ourselves. Richard springs the question to an unsuspecting Linda: If you could give only three answers to the question "Who are you?", what would those answers be? Can we shift in life's second half from a focus on doing to a focus on being, and what roles are most important to play well? For more, visit https://valuesparenting.com/how-to-live/.

What is the "SECOND HALF OF LIFE"?
The Eyres originate this episode from Switzerland where they are working on their online course https://valuesparenting.com/how-to-live/ and visiting their author-and-speaker Tal who lives high in the Alps with his wife and daughter. Tal is a guest on the show and the discussion is about what the "second half" is, and how it begins with new priority on relationships and the seeking of inner joy.
