So for Krista and I, we had themes of relationships come up where I was going through a really intense breakup and I thought I was going to marry this person. I thought I would be married by the time I was 27, have kids by the time I was 29, and then we'd walk off into the sunset, whatever. Mm-hmm. And that didn't happen. I was like, wait, so now what? You know, who am I then?
Who am I without him? Who am I if this isn't the plan? But I think what Saturn has the opportunity to show you is that, yeah, we can have a plan based on how we grew up and all the things, but there is a much more expansive plan.
plan and life for you if you lean into the unknown so you know it's a practice it's a practice to be able to have faith in something that you don't know what the next step is but i think saturn will really teach you that that is the way you know that is truly the way
And that's something that just happens every 28, 29 years. So it's like just a few pivotal points in your life. Yeah. Maybe just like two or three. Hopefully three. Yeah. Hopefully three times if you live a long life. Brian Johnson, you're four. I'm kind of sad that I missed mine and I didn't know about it.
I wonder what was happening when you were 27 to 30.
I shut down my blog and got my MBA and went into corporate. There you go. Because I felt like I needed to grow up. I felt like, oh, I needed to grow up. I need to like take care of myself. Yep.
Your prefrontal cortex is also coming online during that time. So your prefrontal cortex is actually responsible for you making decisions like that. Where you're like, I'm going to be more thoughtful. I'm going to be more strategic. I'm going to be more diplomatic about how I'm spending my time.
So it's not only like the Saturn return period, but there's a lot of brain development that's happening that changes how you operate with life in the world where you're like, okay, now with my prefrontal cortex online and becoming conscious, how am I going to approach relationships? How am I going to approach my career? How am I going to approach my friendships?
And there's just so much change happening that it's just can feel like a washing machine if you're not really being mindful of it. And if you don't have the permission to see it as an opportunity to lead you to a better life.
Yeah, you were just talking about friendships. And I know in your book, you talk a lot about making sure you've got the right people around you. Talk to us about your advice related to that.
Yeah, I think especially for entrepreneurs, I mean, the entrepreneur journey, you, in my perspective, and this could be wrong, so I was in corporate and being an entrepreneur, the entrepreneur has a different type of mindset. You have a different type of set of values and priorities. And so it can be hard actually as an entrepreneur to relate to people in the corporate world, I think.
So just thinking about that for your entrepreneurial audience, just really understanding that your friendships are going to change. I think the number one thing that you can remember and accept in life is that your friendships are going to change and that's okay.
I think for me for so long, I felt so much shame that I didn't have the same four girlfriends that I grew up with and it wasn't Sex and the City and it wasn't Girls and it wasn't like every movie that I saw where everyone was best friends with the same people for their entire lives. Yeah. I had friends come in and out. I had changes. I had transitions. And that actually was a good thing.
That was showing how I was changing, how I was evolving, how I was prioritizing different things like not drinking or partying or my business or spirituality. And so accepting that friendships will change is number one. I think number two, seeing friendships as a vehicle for your growth just as deep as your romantic relationships is huge.
My romantic relationships have been so powerful for me, but my friendships have been such a place for growth and support and love. And now I see my friendships as equal to my romantic relationships. They really see me. They hear me. They've been with me. And women, especially in women relationships, the way that we can see and support one another is just next level.
Yeah. I love that you're saying that because I know that in my 20s when I was in relationships, I'd be the type of girl that would be not prioritizing my friendships. I would just get sucked into my relationship. I'm sorry I'm with him. We all have to do that. And then you lose your friendships. Then you break up and then you realize like, oh, crap.
100% of the way and I think in the Saturn return period for those friendships that are for that lifetime vibe they require that update you know because you're kind of working on like old patterns you're working on old everything and so if you feel like you're changing and most likely your friend is changing too. But you both are holding on to how the friendship has always been.
I did not do a good job. Being a good friend and now I don't have any friends because I was prioritizing my boyfriend and all this kind of stuff. And now I look at my girlfriend relationships as actually sometimes more important than my romantic relationships because they'll be with me no matter what. They're not going to go fall in love with somebody else. Yeah.
So I think with the select few in my life, I've had to just have like a come to Jesus moment of like, hey, this is actually what's important to me right now. Or this is what I have capacity for. Because sometimes, for example, in friendships, you don't see each other as much. Maybe because you've gotten married or maybe you've moved, maybe you don't touch base as often.
They can't cheat, though. They'll hang out with the other girlfriend. You're like, what are you guys doing? I'll never forget that. My mom, after getting divorced, she was like, you know, never lose your girlfriends. She's like, your girlfriends are just so important.
