Finding the Floor - A thoughtful approach to midlife motherhood and what comes next.
Listen to stories told by Camille Johnson as she reflects on her life raising a family of 5 kids, being happily married for 22 years, and finding the joy and laughter of it all. She has been trying to find the floor to her kids' rooms for a while and gets a peek about once a week. Come listen as she shares her journey of finding her floor both literally and figuratively as she contemplates, life, love, cleaning, pets, books, remodeling, being a taxi driver, finding wholeness, living as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and figuring out what she finally wants to be when she grows up. If this podcasting becomes a thing well maybe this is it. Thanks for listening!

Throwback to I don't have to make everything all better principles 1& 2
Hi friends! June is proving to be pretty busy. So this month I will be posting some older episodes for you to enjoy. This one from the Book, I don't have to make everything all better and I think a great review. Enjoy!!
“All of us want to be listened to and understood.” This episode I begin sharing principles from the book “I Don’t Have to Make it All Better” By Gary B. and Joy Saunders Lundberg. The first two principles that I share in this episode are: Be an effective validator and leave the responsibility where it belongs. I share the Lundberg's definition of validation and learn a bit how to walk emotionally with people. Then also the art of helping - like a doctor who sets a broken bone. I also reference episode 34 - It’s not about the nail - I don’t have to solve their problems. (So go back and listen if you haven’t heard that one yet. This episode adds on to this idea).
I would love to hear from you! You can reach me at camille@findingthefloor.com or dm @findingthefloor on instagram. Thanks for listening!!
Thanks to Seth Johnson for my intro and outro original music. I love it so much!
