In today's episode, Heather Johnson Durocher and I continue our deep-dive into the world of midlife transitions with a special focus on identity, career changes, and maintaining friendships during this transformative period.
Our conversation kicked off with a reflection on how midlife is a time for re-evaluation and asking ourselves critical questions about what we truly want out of life. We discussed the importance of staying true to oneself and the challenges and opportunities that come with changing careers in midlife.
A significant part of our discussion was dedicated to the complexities of midlife friendships. We explored how these relationships evolve and sometimes become challenging as we navigate through different life stages. The conversation was enriched by personal anecdotes and insights, making it feel like a heart-to-heart between two friends.
Additionally, we touched on the creative pursuits that often become a focal point in midlife. I shared my excitement about the upcoming projects and expansions at the School of Midlife, including luxury retreats and a new field trip program.
To wrap up, we reflected on the liberating aspects of reaching midlife, such as gaining a clearer sense of self and feeling more secure in our identities and choices. We concluded with a reminder of the importance of not waiting for the perfect moment to pursue our dreams, emphasizing that midlife can be the best time to embrace new challenges and opportunities.
