SHOW NOTES:<\/h3>\n

For the later half\u00a0of the 20th Century\u00a0people would refer\u00a0to a phenomenon of undergoing\u00a0a “mid-life crisis”. After growing up, getting an education, having a career or family, or both, people\u00a0would get to about mid-life and not be sure why they were doing what they were doing; or what any of it meant anymore, or who they really were anyway. Some would buy sports cars, or run off with their young secretaries, or quit their jobs, go back to school, start writing\u00a0poetry, start a new hobby, revive their religion or start into a new one, or go on a motorcycle ride across the country. Many others would trudge, more quietly, through it until it was over and they found their way again.<\/p>\n

But, in\u00a0the last 20 years along came another term “the quarter-life crisis”. This referred to people at the beginning of adulthood\u2013perhaps just out of college or working for a few years, or recently married, or putting off marriage. The angst and the quandaries were similar and these people struggled deeply wondering what they should do and be in the world.<\/p>\n

Now, these types of Identity Crises periods seem to happen often<\/span> to people\u2013even every few years, and this episode of Soul School goes into why and what can be done about it.<\/strong><\/p>\n
