  • Summary

  • Midlife in our 40s and 50s can be a challenging time. So many things are changing: our bodies, our health, our relationships, our work, our responsibilities, our dreams. We try to balance everything but sometimes it can be a struggle.

    But what if we gained greater self-knowledge to gain wisdom? Wisdom to acknowledge and handle our ignorance, uncertainties, and limitations. Wisdom to know that whilst we can certainly achieve external success using our strengths, we can also gain character by acknowledging our weaknesses.

    And the wisdom to know that whilst a lot is up to us, other factors such as luck, societal expectations, and perhaps fate itself, conspire to test our journey through midlife. A journey from which we might not only ask, What do I want from life? But What does life want from me?

    Drawing on a myriad of research from scientific studies, philosophy, life coaching techniques, and anecdotal tales, the Midlife Maps podcast provides a reliable source of introductory information for this much under-studied and often forgotten period of our lives.

    So, join the Mildlife Maps podcast as we find a map to navigate that!
