Feeling stuck? Embrace the wake-up call…

🎙️ “If we acknowledge that midlife shift and notice we want to go in a different direction but don’t know how… that’s a fantastic sign. It’s a positive sign. It’s the first step to waking up.” Says Susanne

For years, we may have been “good soldiers,” doing what’s expected: pleasing parents, ticking boxes, fitting in. But what happens when we realise something’s missing? When we think “There must be more to life”?

Susanne reminds us to pause. Acknowledge where we are. Celebrate all we’ve accomplished.

Maybe life isn’t about constantly chasing the next thing. Maybe it’s about realising we’re exactly where we need to be.

Listen to Susanne’s journey when you in the car next, on a dog walk or chillin’ on the sofa.

😩 Have you ever felt like life just kept piling on, with no way to catch a breath?

If so, you’re definitely not alone. Dawn Barnes knows this feeling all too well.

She poured everything into her work, leaving her priorities tangled and her health neglected. The long hours led to quick meals and ‘just one glass of wine to unwind,’ but it soon spiraled—impacting her sleep, her social life, and, ultimately, her well-being.

But Dawn found a way through. She started reconnecting with her authentic self, step by step. If this story resonates with you, check out her journey and see how she began to reclaim her balance.

🤔 Do you feel the same? There is a way forward.

On the latest episode of Life’s 2nd Act, I spoke with Paul Sutton, who opened up about his two-year struggle with a sense of unease and discontent, questioning the life he had built. Paul’s journey is about finding meaning and purpose in midlife, a far cry from the clichés of flashy cars and radical changes.

Through journaling, self-reflection, and small routines, Paul is learning to embrace this phase and redefine success on his own terms.

His story is one of courage, honesty and support for others on similar paths.

Midlife isn’t a crisis: it’s a chance to reshape your life.

Midlife Crisis: Some common signs and the potential for growth

Most of us are familiar with the term ‘midlife crisis’.
It’s referenced a lot in popular culture, often in a humorous way, referring to the common sense of regret, emotional turmoil, and strong urge to make significant life changes many of us feel as we approach middle age and the second half of life.
