Creativity, Clarity & the Midlife Rite of Passage

from Wild, Wise & Curious... · host Michelle Haggerty-Wood & Lou Baker

In this episode, we sit down with Luanne to talk about the powerful shift many women experience during perimenopause and beyond—a time marked by deeper reflection, rising creativity and a stronger sense of purpose. Luanne introduces us to Konenki, a Japanese word that beautifully captures this stage of life as a meaningful rite of passage. With children growing older for those who have them, and more mental space available, many women find their creative energy not just returning, but expanding. Time begins to feel more precious and we start choosing more intentionally—how we spend it and who we spend it with. This isn’t the end of something—it’s the beginning of a richer, more intentional chapter.   Show Notes: Hagitude; Reimagining the Second Half of Life
