What Happens When You Finally Ask: What’s Next? With Nick Shelton

What Happens When You Finally Ask: What’s Next? With Nick Shelton This week, Lisa sits down with Nick Shelton—bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and creator of The Reset Button—to talk about what really happens when you reach the life you worked for… and still feel lost. After retiring at 49, Nick expected freedom. Instead, he found himself untethered—without structure, identity, or purpose. What followed? A powerful reinvention framework that helps you rebuild your life from the inside out. In this episode we explore: Why freedom without purpose can feel like collapse The identity crisis that comes after “doing everything right” How to reconnect with your worth through a “dignity scan” Why midlife requires freestyle—not choreography The role of grief, play, and imagination in reinvention How to actually become a new version of yourself (not just think about it) Nick's Reinvention Framework: 1. Audit Your Life What’s working? What needs to go? What wants to come back? 2. Honour + Release the Old You Write the letter Burn it (yes, really) 3. Design Your Next Version What do they eat, do, believe, try? 4. Make It Stick Create a “private uniform” to embody your new identity Build a new social circle around who you’re becoming Curate your environment to reflect your next chapter Lisa's Reflections: Midlife isn’t the breakdown—it’s the moment the choreography ends. And yes… it’s uncomfortable. But it’s also where: play returns identity deepens and truth finally gets a voice Connect with Nick: Website: resettheman.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholasleonshelton/ Connect with Lisa: Website: https://www.liberatedmenopause.ca Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lboate Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leaninfindyourwayhome/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/245092311417467 Email: [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
