The Art of Quitting
We’re taught that quitting means failure.

What If Your Midlife Crisis Is Actually an Awakening? with Cindy Anderson
What if a midlife crisis isn’t a crisis at all — but an awakening?Marianne and Leslie Ann sit down with spiritual guide Cindy Anderson for a conversation about intuition, inner knowing, and what can happen when we finally get quiet enough to hear ourselves again.Cindy shares how reaching all the milestones she thought were supposed to make her happy instead sent her searching for something deeper — eventually leading her to connect with her own spiritual guides. Together, they explore the difference between intuition and outside guidance, why major life transitions can trigger spiritual awakening, how to begin trusting those seemingly inexplicable “knowings,” and the many ways guidance may show up — from dreams and nudges to the people we’ve loved and lost. The conversation also gets personal as Marianne shares a powerful dream that stayed with her for decades, and producer Elizabeth joins the discussion to talk about her own experience connecting with spiritual guides. Whether you call it intuition, a gut feeling, the Holy Spirit, the universe, or a spirit guide, Cindy’s message is simple: the label matters far less than learning how to listen.
