Where are you at in your life stage?
Nearing the end of Act II and starting to think about the possibilities for Act III. Older than I should be, but the father of three talented teenagers. Comfortable with my work, not chasing or climbing anything. I like to think I have one more surprise left in me, though.
How's your life?
Keenly aware that the horizon has started edging closer. I'm mindful that I've had a a good run (so far!), and I'm not so foolish to be made ungrateful by the strike of the occasional arrow from the quiver of love, health, or money.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Music for one, movie/anime night with the kids for two, and spending most of Sunday outside working on the never ending stream of projects that come with a small orchard. And of course getting up before anyone else on Sunday and having a quiet cup of coffee while gazing out the window. Also, the sound of rain, and the distant horn of a train echoing far away in the night.
What is most important to you right now?
Kids! Yeah, I know, sounds trite, but it's a wild ride, and there's nothing like the feeling when you do something right. Not entirely unrelated, but being an older dad, maintaining health is key to keeping up with them.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I've known about rejection therapy for years, but recently found a you-tuber (jia jiang) who set out to be rejected 100 times, often for asking for ridiculous things from complete strangers. Riding along (virtually) with him adds a whole new dimension to the process and helps inspire the viewer to be more open to challenging themselves in social situations.

Where are you at in your life stage?
Lots of change in my life right now - recent empty nester and new to my neighborhood. I'm closing in on retirement and working as a consultant. I now have free time to do some of the things I enjoy.
How's your life?
Life is great, and I'm excited about finally having the time to do what I enjoy.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Being outside keeps me sane - hiking, biking, paddleboarding, walking my Great Dane. I've also enjoyed rediscovering reading for fun. To wind down, I love to cook while enjoying a glass of wine.
What is most important to you right now?
I'd love to meet some new like-minded people. I enjoy meeting new people, and working remotely and as a consultant limits my ability.
Anything you recently found interesting?
The world is such a strange place right now. The news never fails to surprise me.

Currently funemployed! Took some time to travel, now just building up my life in San Diego and trying to find my favorite spots. Also trying to learn how to swim...but it is harder than I expect every single time.

Saying yes to interesting and scary opportunities has been exciting and fruitful and I'm always interested in improving at things I'm bad at. Nevertheless, life is relentless and every day I am exhausted :)))
What helps you keep your sanity?
Climbing, bachata, and Peep Show
What is most important to you right now?
Establishing a solid friend group in SD and exploring home

I find the concept of dropshipping really fascinating (don't worry I'm not going to do it)

Where are you at in your life stage?
Trying to enjoy my youth before I need to start planning for kids. After the pandemic lock down, I feel like I lost a lot of time so the last few years has been a lot of trips, new experiences and hobbies.
How's your life?
I call it the boring middle but honestly I think I'm at the best place in my life right now. I enjoy my job and I have work life balance to be able to travel and have time to work out or meet up with friends after work so I can't really complain. I do think about aspirations sometimes of starting my own business or making a huge change like moving overseas but maybe it can still happen later?
What helps you keep your sanity?
My dog :D eating amazing food! Therapy , more self care,just started learning how to meditate. Learning how to appreciate the small things in life
What is most important to you right now?
My physical and mental health. Everything started getting sore and cracking after I turned 30 T.T
Anything you recently found interesting?
Recently started doing pottery and pickleball!

Where are you at in your life stage?
I just turned 30, and I moved to San Diego from the Bay Area in 2021. I am also trying to find a sense of community where I can connect with like-minded folks and have adventures around the city. I'm currently focusing on some hobbies, both new and old. I'm trying to explore to find purpose in life!
How's your life?
My life is okay right now! I have some great physical and artistic hobbies I like to partake in, which keeps me busy. I am in between jobs (thanks layoffs!) trying to find my next move, so that has been a bit stressful. I would love to put myself in new scenarios to expand my horizons.
What helps you keep your sanity?
Reading books (I have a goal of 26 this year), running (training for an upcoming half marathon), acting, ice skating, singing (not well, heh), and skateboarding.
What is most important to you right now?
Finding a community! :)
Anything you recently found interesting?
I recently went whale watching and didn't know there were so so many vast whales and dolphins in San Diego's beaches! :D The dolphins were super cute and friendly! :)

27 years old, living with my girlfriend and cat. Moved to the US about 4 years ago, California about a year and have been working and learning a ton. I feel at peace but sometimes it gets lonely.
How's your life?
Pretty good. Lots of love and fun. There are so many new things to do and new people to meet, that keeps me going.

Playing guitar, rock climbing (bouldering), videogames, long Youtube videos, singing in the car.

Right now my girlfriend and our cat are the most important part of my life. They make my life better and encourage me to engage in new things. I got into plants to get my cat some catnip lol.
Anything you recently found interesting?
I'm always learning and researching random stuff. I've been binge watching "Forged in Fire" and it is wild the amount of people with forges at their houses.
