Ep. 268: The Hardest Part of Midlife Nobody Talks About

Send us Fan MailI don't think the hardest part of midlife is getting older. I don't think it's wrinkles. I don't think it's menopause. I don't even think it's the teenagers or parenting of adults…walking alongside them.I think the hardest part of midlife is realizing that the way you've always done life doesn't seem to work anymore.And if you've been feeling that lately, I want you to know something before we go any further.I don't think you're failing. I don't think you've become lazy. I don't think you've suddenly lost your ability to handle life.I think you've reached a season that asks something different from you.And that's the part nobody talks about. Nobody sits you down at forty-five and says, hey, by the way, the strategy that's carried you through every hard season so far is about to stop working, and that's actually not a crisis—it's a milestone. Nobody tells you that. You just find out the hard way, usually alone, usually while quietly wondering what happened to the woman who used to handle everything.Today we’re going to talk openly about the physical side of midlife. Hormones, sleep, metabolism, all of it. We're far less honest about this part…the quiet realization that the entire way you've operated for twenty years has an expiration date, and nobody warned you it was coming.Get some powerful mantras to inspire, encourage, and life you up when you need as little something intentional to focus on. We have a beautiful pdf download of the 6 Mantras For Intentional Moms you can keep or print.
