In this Ask Mind Your Midlife episode, I’m tackling your real-life questions about rest, relaxation, and whether midlife women should be pushing harder or giving themselves permission to slow down.This is about more than just putting your feet up. It’s about mindset shifts, self care, and learning how to listen to what you actually need at this stage of life—whether that’s trying something new, taking a break, or finally letting go of the comparison trap.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:✔ Why some midlife women find it almost impossible to sit still—and how to relax without feeling lazy ✔ How overthinking and self-criticism drive us to keep “doing” instead of resting ✔ Simple ways to calm your nervous system, even if you’re someone who likes to stay busy ✔ Why it’s perfectly okay if you don’t feel like chasing a big new goal in midlife ✔ How to stop comparing yourself to everyone else and embrace what feels right for you🎯 OMG Moment: Rest is not weakness—it’s self confidence in action.
