Embracing Change: Judy Rooney on the Power of Pivots in Midlife

In this episode, I speak with Judy Rooney, a licensed clinical social worker turned certified Mindset and Habit Coach. We discuss the differences between therapy and coaching, Judy's personal journey of pivoting from therapy to coaching, and the importance of redefining midlife. Judy shares insights on self-compassion, resilience, and the significance of leaving a meaningful legacy.

Key Takeaways:

• Therapy vs. Coaching: Therapy focuses on healing past traumas, while coaching is future-oriented, helping clients achieve personal growth.
• Judy's Transition: Judy discusses the challenges and benefits of moving from a therapist role to coaching, including overcoming self-doubt and gaining freedom in her schedule.
• Redefining Midlife: Midlife should be viewed as an opportunity for growth rather than retirement. Judy encourages listeners to pursue their passions and recognize their potential.
• Legacy and Values: Reflect on what legacy you want to leave behind and how your pivots can contribute to that legacy.
• Practical Advice: Embrace the unknown, take small steps, and focus on self-compassion and resilience.

Question to Ponder:
What legacy do you want to leave behind, and how can your pivot contribute to that legacy?
