The Last Episode of my 20s | The Beauty In Our Limit

[@rebeccamichaels340]

This is the most beautiful, touching, exquisite message I have ever heard. Thank you very much. It is a gift. I am 64, & have been too busy chasing a career for decades, that I stop & ask what IS my life? My daughter is 22.5, we have 2 birthdays for her-- conception & birth. Last month she started her 23rd yr. I will share this with her. Again, thank you for this gift. May I let you in on a secret? One never finds exactly what they are looking for, bc ev day it changes. It changes bc of experiences, things learned, situations change & of course our perspective. When we do attain, we see the next exploration. Early on, life seems like destinations, & truly it is the journey, the experiences, the joys & griefs, moments that are intricate & hind sight-contemplation reveals their brilliance. You are a gift.

Maddy, I’m speechless.. this was an incredible message and resonates so much with me. I’m also 29 and through 2022, I lost all of my living grandparents. Like you, I also once felt the invincibility of possibility and explored the world fearlessly. 2022 has also changed my perspective of the nature of being alive. Thank you so much for this. I can already tell I’ll replay this often.

30s will be the golden time. the best is yet to come

[@IamKalvik]

That was the most poetically Beautiful episode! 'Explore with death in mind' was just sublime! I carry the quote '사랑하라 한번도 상처받지 않은 것처럼' ( Love Like You've Never Been Hurt ), it's the title of a poetry collection by Ryu Si-Hwa, hope you love your thirties just as much as I love this podcast 😌

[@fantasticfrankie]

Glad there will be season 2. Can't wait for the first episode of your 30s.

[@SheldyxSheld]

Missed your podcast so much 😥😭 Since I turned 30 I've been having similar thoughts, like if I'm running out of time to do things and to be with my loves ones. Last summer my sister got married and I saw my dad for the first time in 10 years, he lives abroad and I haven't been to my home country in 10 years bc I decided I wanted to travel to other places in the world, which I did and I loved it. But my family back home, specially my grandmothers, won't last for much longer so I've decided I'll be going to my country in March. I'm very excited to finally see all of my family members I've been neglecting all these year and I'm also looking forward to see my friends. I went through a lot in 2022, lots of ups and down, started going on dates (got my first heart beak 😢) and in the process I met so many ppl who now I can call friends but also some who I probably won't see ever again. I also started climbing and made even more friends and found a new community that I enjoy being around. I learned a lot in terms of self discovery and how to treat/understand others. I'm hoping I can take everything that I've learn in 2023 and make it a year of progression. Perhaps, going back to my roots will help me to move towards my goals. Kinda weird that I gotta go back in order to move forward huh? Hahaha Always looking forward to your podcast Maddy ❤️

[@xxdluvsjiroxx]

I’ve missed your podcast. It’s as enjoyable, calm and lovely to listen to. Thank you for always sharing these parts of your life. ❤

[@snehanair8950]

This was so amazing! The way this video was shot, the lights, your voice...it felt so warm...

[@snehanair8950]

Also, can someone please tell me the name of the BGM playing here 19:17 .

[@rohpheeheart]

i never leave comments cause i always think a like button will be enough. i discovered your channel about 8 months ago when i was supposed to start my final year of med school but somehow all public universities in my country went on strike. you aren't the most consistent but you were the one i could count on for peace, your voice is so soothing as someone who hasn't seen my family in years due to schooling and unwillingness to travel, you have helped me feel warm on cold days and breakfast for one is always ok since we are eating together. im going to be 25 soon and im graduating medical school this year and im still lost, i guess im a bit emotional but thank you for sharing with this repressed tiny girl on the other side of the world. i hope all your growing pains are over and i wish you a life filled with happiness and warmth

[@YatesyTea]

Thank you for making this series. It helped get me through a really tough time in 2022 and process some of my emotions that I had never really been in touch with before. Hearing someone else put things into words that I struggle to really did help.

[@mlot4470]

no keep the tree not put it down , bcs the lights in the winter show hope in this coldness

[@matchaeylle]

yes exactly! my mom always keeps it up through january and often through february too. it’s so beautiful to look at especially in the dark nights.

[@bbwlc]

Nothing makes you feel more alive than to know that life can always change in the drop of a dime. One moment you think you're invincible...the next...you could be incapacitated/sick/dead. Every morning you can wake up and just do the mundane things...savour it because there comes a time when you will wish you could go back to a simpler time...maybe even a more mundane time.

[@faizalahmed5035]

Missed your podcast so much!! Thanks for helping me get through difficult times, your podcasts truly are a godsend

[@zaraloveskoda]

Maddy, I have tears in my eyes. Thank you for sharing your story (and so beautifully). This video dropped into my life at an exact point I needed to hear the many messages you shared, messages that resonated so deeply for me. At the risk of sounding dramatic, this video has acted as a small catalyst to turn a chapter in my life and help me understand what I need to do to be happier in life. Thank you, and happy belated birthday 🖤

[@selenacarlson9736]

Thank you for sharing these gorgeous words! I'm also on the cusp of turning 30 this year and lost my dad to dementia in October. Needless to say, this resonated deeply. Considering our imminent death can add such dimension to any moment - it has opened the door for new and profound levels of love in my life. Rooting for you as we both begin this new chapter

[@sincerelyceline]

That was really beautiful ;^; your reflections made me think of this verse: "When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror, then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love" - 1 Corinthians 13:8-13 When we are younger, we can be selfish and self-focused, but sharing your thoughts reminded me of the bigger picture, and that is to love. Though our time is limited, we can find love where love began, and through it, be able to share love💕 1st pod of the year made me tear C,: looking forward to more of your stories~

[@anellejournal]

Hello Maddy, I'm not used to leave a comment but when my heart touched I feel like I need to. Thid is quite long and I'm impatient viewers but you make me stay until the end. I was teary eyed watching your video, relate to your experience, feeling the vibe on your dim light, dark room and soothing voice. Thank you for sharing this. For all the questions that i have this past days, I think this video is the answer. Love lots.

[@tasmiamarium.b]

I always Listen to your Podcast. When I go to school, When I do something and almost everytime. Your Podcasts are very relaxing. I heard every episode. I subscibed after seeing the the first Video I saw from you. Your voice is so calming . And I really love the "Hey".

[@hitgo]

This feels so nostalgic, the music, the visuals, reminds me of a bittersweet ending to a movie but wanting to know more and what comes next. Until next season everyone

[@karlamanreg9882]

this is the first ep of your podcast I listened to and I loooved it. ❤Thank u so much for sharing with us your thoughts and your personal letter, I’m on my mid-twenties and I am feeling the pressure by turning 30. Thanks to this episode, I’m not scared anymore :) I wish that you can spend more time with your loved ones in this new chapter. Sending u love ❤

[@msa2217]

I always looked forward to new episodes. I find myself replaying episodes of your amazing, lovely, podcast that feels all too real, but this is the first time I've replayed something of yours twice already within a day of it releasing. It felt way too real for me. Thank you so much for this.

[@aKm057]

If only we all started to think this way.. Thank you, Maddy.. Thank you for this. It was hard, it was difficult, to talk it out.. but, I appreciate you sharing your feelings, emotions, even when it was hella difficult, strenuous. I love you. Take care.

[@misterflamingo]

Finally ♥️ welcome to your thirties! It's a great place to be 😎 wish you all the best and some warm wishes to you. Quote from a book: "you have conquered me by example" (A.J Cronin, the keys of the kingdom)

[@strawberrymelon8527]

I'm only in my early twenties, but this hit home and was such an impactful message. thank you for creating this to start our 2023!

[@nat-gp6bx]

recently hit my late 20s in December and a lot of this has been on my mind as well. thank you Maddy ❤️

[@goatieoat]

Maddy, you are a beautiful human being and you are perfect as you are. I can relate to your sadness about missed opportunities with your grandmother. I too have experience with that situation. It gives me comfort that eventually when our loved one passes over to the other side, they will be returned to completeness and wholeness. I hope that might comfort you eventually as well. Also, please consider reading or watching The Secret by Rhonda Byrne, or learn about the law of attraction from another source that resonates with you. I believe you’ll find that all you seek is already within you. Love and light to you along your journey. You’re doing great. Thank you for your beautiful content. It’s always a joy to watch. Sending you big hugs… and here I thought I was only here for the cooking! Lol

[@itsmanishaaa]

I hope you always have beautiful stories to tell us, you have no idea how much it helps! Thank you Maddy! 💗

[@nevermind7253]

Amen

[@FloatingontheWrongPlanet]

This was a really beautiful episode, my grandma also had dementia before she passed and being in school it was rough to deal with. I ended up not going to her funeral because I've already said goodbye multiple times. I actually went to a rave instead and I know it seems really fucked up, but I truly believe in the concept of celebrating life for those who are no longer here. I was relieved that her suffering came to an end, same with my other grandma on my dad's side, even at 11 years old I just knew that it was better for her to leave rather than to stay here. Looking forward to the next podcast episode whenever that may come. Thank you for being here Maddy and I hope you're doing well 😁

[@blackbarbei7429]

Hola. Thank you for sharing such a sweet and personal part of your life in this episode! I'm a little older than you and can understand your perspective on getting older and you're so right! But it's beautiful to see how you have grown from previous experiences. Looking forward to what you share in '23 - Happy New Year!

[@makayla5733]

i’m so thankful for you and your words maddy, i’ll be coming back to this episode a lot this year and this was the most beautiful message to start off my year. thank you so much for this

[@elisas8755]

Beautiful words of wisdom. Truly love you content! The Christmas tree was perfect on this video. I always think to myself why must we only wait for December to put up a tree 🌲

[@shivanishah0613]

My mind went to "indigo" immediately because "the last archive of my twenties" Your voice is so soothing :)

[@songarinsk]

[@MichaelGrode]

I'm so happy to see an update to the podcast :) What a great message and reminder to spend time with the ones we care about while we can. Thank you for sharing something so personal. This was a beautiful episode.

[@kupopoporo4447]

"Now I have to remember you for longer than I have known you." -c.c.aurel It's not really cheerful, but maybe you'll find comfort in this quote. Love your content and your point of view on life. Keep going ❤️

[@aic3492]

[@Minim1719]

Will you do another podcast? I love them

[@Aazhiiii]

Thanks Maady, I really needed this! ❤

[@dmd2803]

I listened to your podcast when I first started working post-grad and was in an uncertain, low place in my life. I remember feeling like I was not alone and encouraged that someone who is older than me is still figuring things out. I don't know you personally but I have seen you happier the past year with your success. I wish you the best and keep making these episodes, please...

[@Ruvanthika.]

Your contents are so aesthetic and I love it 💞 .

so many lost middle aged women in this world

[@yennefer440]

And little boys who never grow up

[@dinosaurd7295]

@@yennefer440 100% I agree. Because when you have half of society demonize the other, calling them toxic, they withdraw and never reach their full potential. But you keep using shaming tactics, it will work out well
