The Power of Purpose - Finding Your Mid-Career Why

<p>In this episode, I reflect on my mother's experience of losing her sense of purpose in midlife after retirement. Watching my mother go through this journey has been difficult, as she’s always been a vibrant and active person who loved her family and was passionate about her work. However, once she retired she struggled to find a new sense of meaning and purpose in life.</p> <p>I watched firsthand how the loss of purpose affected her mental and physical health, and I realized that this is a common experience for many women in midlife. Major changes in life such as retirement, children leaving home, job loss, can be a time of transition and reflection, and for some, it can be a challenge to find new sources of fulfillment and meaning.</p> <p>Through my mother's experience, I learned the importance of having a sense of purpose and its positive impact on life. I also discovered some practical strategies and exercises for rediscovering purpose in midlife, such as exploring personal values, strengths, and interests, and seeking out new opportunities for growth and connection.</p> <p>In this episode, I share my insights and reflections on my mother's journey and offer tips and advice for anyone struggling to find their purpose in midlife. Whether you're going through a similar experience or simply interested in this topic, I hope that this episode  will inspire and encourage you to rediscover your sense of purpose and live a more fulfilling life.
