002 | Michelle Wollaston: The Comfort Meter & Midlife as Initiation

In this first guest conversation for Stellar Reflections, Georgina is joined by life directionist Michelle Wollaston for an honest and grounding exploration of midlife, change, and the quiet signals that guide us back to ourselves.   Georgina and Michelle unpack the idea that midlife is not a crisis to fix, but an initiation – a threshold where the noise gets louder, the “comfort meter” becomes impossible to ignore, and the universe begins nudging us toward what is true and sustainable for our lives.   Today’s chat uncovers: the sacred unravelling that can occur when relationships, work, or identities no longer fit the courage it takes to set boundaries the way astrology, life experience, and intuition can work together to help us understand timing and trust ourselves more deeply what becomes possible when we stop living from expectation or fear and begin making heart-centred decisions instead.   For anyone navigating midlife transitions, questioning their direction, or sensing that something is shifting beneath the surface, this episode offers reassurance that we are not alone and not off track.   Sometimes the first step is simply turning the noise down long enough to hear our own voice again.   *****   Visit Georgina’s website or check out the Stellar Reflections pod page!
