Summary

Feel like time is running out to change direction or go bigger? That voice telling you it’s “too late” gets louder in midlife, but I'm here to say it’s also wrong. In this episode, I’m unpacking the reality of your forties, fifties, and beyond. The pressure, the responsibility, the doubt, and why this stage might actually be your most powerful yet.
