#21 Figuring Out Life at 35 | My Messy Middle | Ep 1

from Work Hard, Live Soft with Maya Elious · host Maya Elious

I'm officially entering my "messy middle" and I'm taking you with me. After 10 years as a personal branding expert, I'm pulling back the curtain on what it really looks like to pivot, reinvent your brand, and figure out life at 35, even when you don't have all the answers. For the last three years, I've felt a friction I couldn't ignore. I built a successful business as a branding strategist, but I realized I was forcing a version of myself that I had already outgrown. In this debut episode of the My Messy Middle series, I'm sharing a raw and transparent look at why I'm stepping away from the "expert" pedestal to find my truth in this new season. Almost the entire year has felt like waking up and forcing things in my business, and it's because I outgrew my season 3 years ago and never made changes. If you've ever felt like you're just "going through the motions" in your career or felt the urge to pivot but feared discrediting your past work, this video is for you.  We're exploring how to honor your truth so you can become exactly who you're meant to be in 2026. I'm figuring this out in real time, and I'd love for you to join me on the journey. If you're feeling the pull to reinvent yourself, let's talk about it in the DMs. Are you in the messy middle too? ////// Let's connect ///////// My Website: https://www.mayalious.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/mayaelious YouTube: https://youtube.com/@mayaelious
