Dream it, Plan it, Do it! with Margaret Sheppard

Midlife Movement member, Margaret Sheppard, talked to us today about turning dreams into reality.  I, for one, am so inspired by Margaret’s upcoming “gap year”. Having lost her confidence and losing sight of herself in the midst of work, caring for an elderly parent and sons with extra needs, she knew she needed to do something for herself, something she had always wanted to do. In 2022 Margaret will embark upon an interesting journey - sometimes alone, sometimes with friends and relatives.  She wants you to know that you too can do that “thing” you always wanted to do. Her advice? Allow yourself to dreamSet a date Plan - budget and other practicalities Get help where needed - make it easy on yourself! Do it! About the Midlife and Beyond Podcast.  Like all transitions, midlife can be messy and sad and glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone and somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to?  I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50, and I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives.  The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time. Because we only become invisible when when we stop seeing ourselves.  email [email protected] to take part in the podcast or suggest guests.  See The Midlife & Beyond section of my website for more information and resources to help you navigate change with less stress and more joy! www.joblackwell.co.uk  Get full access to Midlife & Beyond with Jo Blackwell at joblackwellmidlifeandbeyond.substack.com/subscribe
