Midlife is a time to turn our focus inward and listen to the wisdom our bodies have to offer. Those physical symptoms like fatigue and an increase in overwhelm? They're messengers from within, urging us to prioritize rest and rejuvenation. But this journey is not one of decline, far from it!

Midlife is a time to turn our focus inward and listen to the wisdom our bodies have to offer.

Those physical symptoms like fatigue and an increase in overwhelm? They're messengers from within, urging us to prioritize rest and rejuvenation.

But this journey is not one of decline, far from it! Midlife brings about shifts in our personality, goals, and worldviews. Let's not dismiss them; instead, let's see them as invitations to grow and evolve.

This is a prime time to access your inner wisdom in a way that hasn't been available to you in the past.

By paying attention to our inner experiences and emotions, we ignite the spark of self-discovery and true knowing.

During this episode, I share a somatic listening practice that enables both a pause in overdoing and a deep dive into the wisdom of your body and nervous system. It's all about being present with ourselves and understanding our moment-to-moment experience, and then being able to understand the language of the inner experience.

Let's celebrate this second stage of life, unleashing our purpose and cultivating authentic confidence and courage.

Remember, midlife isn't a time to settle; it's an opportunity to make a unique impact on the world while prioritizing our well-being.
