Ep. 147 Feeling Behind on Your Goals? The Toxic Productivity Myth

from Rooted In Presence · host Carly Killen

Feeling behind on your goals now the year's more than half gone? This episode offers a gentler truth. Carly explores Lughnasadh, the Celtic festival of the first harvest, and what it can teach us about midlife, menopause, and our relationship with time. Rather than buying into the cultural pressure to "finish the year strong," she invites a kinder reframe. Some things in us are ripe and ready to gather, while others are still quietly becoming, and that's exactly as it should be. Drawing on her own reflections from the past year, what's ripened, what's fallen away, and what's still just a seed, Carly explores patience, discernment, trusting your own timing, and the idea of perimenopause as a "second spring."If you're curious about this work and are not sure where to start... maybe take a look at the Embodied Strength Profile a next step you can trust.
