A Life in Progress™ : Rebranding Middle Age

A Life in Progress: Rebranding Middle Age is one of my favorite podcasts. I look forward to each new episode. What drew me to Krista and her work is that she put language to feelings and experiences I couldn’t define or verbalize. For example, she says in her intro that she provides support for “Slow-movers” and “Non-Hustlers”, “Highly Sensitive Souls”, and “Reforming People Pleasers”, among others. I can identify with all of the above. When I heard her speak about the fact that we are all wired differently, and that faster is not always better, I finally understood the internal struggle I have with trying to always push myself to do more. I have the struggle because I don’t want to push myself more. I want more rest and downtime at this point in my life. I want to live at a slower pace. Krista explains in one of her episodes that slowing down actually allows for more creativity and greater efficiency. You can have better results without having to do more at a faster pace. That’s exactly what I want for myself right now! So, if you are a middle-age woman (or even if you’re not ) and these ideas resonate with you, check out her podcast and all the resources she shares on her website! It’s well worth taking the time, and I think you’ll be glad you did! :) Melanie G.
