How Forty Drinks Changed Her Life Old Chicks Know Sh*t Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

As she was approaching her 40th birthday today’s guest, Stephanie McLaughlin wanted to do something fun and novel to celebrate the occasion rather than the obvious big 4-0 party.  So she came up with a plan to mark the  milestone year with 40 drinks with 40 people in 40 different places and to make each drink have a symbolic connection to their relationship. 
Over the course of the year she reached out to current friends, old colleagues and even old boyfriends.  She took pictures and wrote blogs of each experience and along the way she began to realize that this “fun” project  had turned into a profound reflection of her life. Happy moments, sad moments and even a few surprises.  
Stephanie went in knowing that 40 was a pivotal year for her but what she got from this experience was a powerful, soul-searching journey that changed her life profoundly.  
Listen in to hear Stephanie’s experience of the 40 drinks project, what she learned and how it changed her life.

The Forty Drinks Project is something Stephanie did when she turned 40. She celebrated the big “four oh” having 40 drinks with 40 friends in 40 different places – and each drink had a thematic connection to the friend. What began as a ridiculous way to celebrate her birthday extended into a yearlong adventure and then revealed itself as a powerful, soul-searching journey that changed her life profoundly. On the podcast, Stephanie has conversations with guests about transformation and reinvention around the milestone birthday.
