Taking Control of Your Life – Career, Health, and Wealth with Alivia Lesinski

from The Midlife Edit · host Jen Weinstein

 What does it really take to turn your life around when you’re feeling stuck? In this episode of The Midlife Edit, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Alivia Lesinski — a woman who has completely transformed her career, health, and finances through grit, intentionality, and a whole lot of delayed gratification. From being broke and stuck in a dead-end job to earning her master’s degree, leading operations for a mission-driven company, and investing in multiple real estate properties — all while working a modest W2 job — Alivia’s story is proof that you don’t have to wait for “perfect conditions” to go after what you want. We also dive into her incredible health journey, which included six surgeries in just three years, and how she managed to stay positive and keep moving forward through it all. And yes, we definitely talk about how she ended up dancing in the 2010 Olympics closing ceremonies! If you’ve ever felt like your circumstances were holding you back, this conversation will inspire you to take control of what you can change — and start building the life you want.  What You’ll Hear in This Episode: The moment Alivia decided to take control of her career and go back to schoolHow she’s built a real estate portfolio on a modest incomeThe mindset shifts that helped her navigate six surgeries in three yearsWhy delayed gratification is her superpowerThe “No way!” story of dancing in the Olympics closing ceremoniesPractical advice for taking personal agency over the areas of your life that aren’t serving you Links & Resources Mentioned: Connect with Alivia Lesinski on Instgram: @liv_livingmybestlifeFollow The Midlife Edit on Instagram: @thejenweinsteinVisit the website: themidlifeeditco.comJoin the Midlife Edit Insiders here If you enjoyed this episode: Please follow, rate, and review The Midlife Edit on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.
