Real Girls Guide to Midlife: Author Angela Burk on Rewriting the Rules After 50
from A Beautiful Fix | Midlife Burnout, Human Design & Reinvention · host Tracy Hill
I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬Angela Burk spent years being the good girl. The rule follower. The one who showed up exactly the way everyone expected. Then her forties hit and everything she thought she knew got rewritten all at once. A difficult divorce. A career leap into a pre-IPO startup with no safety net. Menopause she did not see coming until she was already in it. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, falling for a man who lives in Australia while she lives in California.Angela is the founder of Real Girls Guide to Midlife and author of the book by the same name. In this conversation she opens up about the rulebook she spent decades following without ever questioning where it came from, the moment she realized the best parts of herself had gone missing, and what it took to burn that rulebook down and build a version of her life that actually belongs to her.We get into self possession, the stories we let define us at work and at home, why no is a complete sentence, and the simple practice of saying out loud what you need even when no one else is listening. Angela also shares how her sons are responding to the woman she has become and why she has almost no regrets about any of it.Plus Angela is giving away three copies of her book to three lucky listeners.
