My Radical Sabbatical

2/19/2022

 
Things to do:
  • HUMOR: Develop a book, series, etc. on life in your 50s (dating pool, search for a job, menopause)
  • MUSIC: Write song lyrics and poems, an anthem for midlife ladies, moms, and runners including theme songs for Rivanna Greenbelt Marathon (and hopefully Ten Miler)
  • ART: Create spaces for sharing drawings, doodles, designs (especially for older women and multigenerational families to connect to past)
  • EXERCISE: Organize virtual challenges to encourage community through movement 
  • EDUCATE: Share best practices and lessons learned  
  • PLAN: Use cake.com to prepare for the death of myself and Fran …. getting our shit together in terms of end of life decisions will also help us prepare for living our best lives in our 50s and beyond 

If I had 3 wishes:
  • Product/Direct/Write a documentary/series/reality show/musical hybrid
  • Fantasy dinner party consisting of one or more of the following attendees: Peter Gabriel, Ani DiFranco, Carole King, Tina Fey, Jessie Armstrong, Alan Ball, David Simon, cast and crew of Girls5Eva, Dollface, We Are Lady Parts, Succession, The Leftovers, and Six Feet Under (there really should be some kind of series where super fans of different shows should do a deep dive into a favorite episode with commentary and conversation with creators and actors)*. See Leah's Inspirational Watch List
  • Visit the Redwoods (this one could actually happen in July, see below!)
Gryls Trip
