Ep.22 Finding Purpose in Midlife: How Women Can Reinvent Themselves After 50

Women are faced with life transitions in many ways.  I'm talking empty nesting, taking care of ill or aging parents, or maybe they are at a crossroads with their partners.  We are programmed to be caregivers and often put others first before we address our own needs, so when the usual demands of family obligations begin to wane, how do women define what a fulfilled life can be?  How do we start the process?For Billy Lahr, host of the Mindful Midlife Crisis Podcast, and his life coach partner Jill Dahler, it took their own journeys of self-discovery to decide that they could share this process with a broader audience, who wish to shape what the next 30+ years can bring.  It lives within us, but maybe we just need a little push to realize that the possibilities of midlife are endless, if we can just dig a little deeper into what could be holding us back.  Welcome to Reflect.
