EP 56: Gen X Women. A conversation with Ada Calhoun

Calling all Gen X Women! This episode is for you!

At this age, we’re all expected to be happy. We got and achieved most of what we thought we wanted. We have years and years of wisdom and life experiences to help us avoid the mistakes we did in the past. But then, why do we still feel miserable?

It’s the new midlife crisis that Gen X women are going though.

If you’re born between 1965 to 1980, then you’re a Gen X woman. I highly encourage you to listen to this episode as Ada Calhoun, author of Why You Can’t Sleep: Women’s New Midlife Crisis, redefines mid-life crisis and the things that keep Gen X women up at night.

In this episode, we’re going to dive deep into the universal midlife crisis that most Gen Xers women are feeling, the new problems women are facing as they enter middle age - problems that are being largely overlooked in our society. Ada shares her findings and what we can do to cope and get out of the chasm of self-doubt and angst!
