If you’re having a midlife crisis, in a midlife funk about your career, empty nest, retirement, getting older or self-care, you're probably not a happy camper these days.
I get it. I've been there too! I remember what it was like to feel stuck and confused about how to be happier in midlife. It's so frustrating.
If only you were clear about what to do and how to move forward! You know you're wasting time and not living your best life.
Think about it. There's a cost to being in an autopilot rut like this.
What would your life would be like when you figure out what you want and know how to make changes that make you more fulfilled and giddy with excitement?
Yes...I said "giddy."
Imagine what it would be like to go from being last on your list to first as you learn to love your life after 50 or 60!
It's time to take control and make sure you don't have regrets.

Today's guest did something unexpected when she chose to leave her judgeship and follow a new direction in poetry. Her name is Jacqueline St. Joan.
Jackie is a retired lawyer, judge, and law professor, as well as an early feminist activist, community organizer, memoirist and novelist whose path to the bench was anything but planned.
She started her career as a secretary, went to law school at 28 as a divorced mother of two, and ended up representing domestic violence survivors before becoming the first judge in Denver's centralized protection order court. Her outspoken feminism brought public scrutiny though her rulings were consistently upheld and she was voted back into office.
Her shift away from law began after her father's death, when she started writing about their complicated relationship. A trip to a writers' conference in Aspen turned that project into a lifelong pull toward poetry, then fiction. Jackie stepped down from the bench gradually, working part-time as a mediator and law professor to stay financially stable while building a writing career.
Her memoir, Your Verdict: A Judge's Reckoning with Lawand Loss, (Golden Antelope Press) was recently published. Jackie is also the author of two novels, My Sisters Made of Lightand The Shawl of Midnight. Jackie served as a Denver County Judge from 1987-1994. Jackie was also recently inducted into the Colorado Women's Hall of Fame.

Being intentional about the kind of daughter you want to be with your aging parents is important. While we're busy noticing our own aging, our parents are aging too, and that realization tends to sneak up on us.
This episode moves past the logistics of caregiving (appointments, prescriptions, forms) and into the relationship underneath it. We need to ask ourselves an important question and it's not "what does a good daughter do" with senior parents. Instead, a better questions is "what kind of daughter do YOU want to be" with your aging parents.
Discover how my regret-proofing framework can work to support you during this time of your life. Learn how to become intentional in a relationship you can't control, with the person aging in front of you. This is a great way toregret-proof your life!

Are you really older and wiser? Research suggests that wisdom doesn't automatically increase just because we get older. Age gives us experience, but experience and wisdom aren't the same thing.
Wisdom grows when we pay attention to our experiences, reflect on what they're showing us, and allow what we learn to influence how we understand, trust, and lead ourselves. And this matters so much in midlife because by now, you have an incredible amount of data about yourself. You've had decades to discover what energizes you, what drains you, what you love, what you tolerate, what you regret, what you keep coming back to, and what keeps getting your attention.

Watch out! You won't be able to UNSEE this!
New Webinar:
WOMEN OVER 50: Discover the one thing keeping women over 50 stuck. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
There's a lot of advice out there about how to feel better in midlife.
Think positive. Find your purpose. Journal it out. Manifest it.
And a surprising amount of it keeps women stuck, disconnected, and settling for less than they actually want.
If you've ever found yourself thinking:
"Why does my life look fine, but something still feels off?"
"Why do I keep waiting for clarity that never comes?"
"Is this really what the next chapter of my life is supposed to feel like?"
...you're in exactly the right place.
YOU'RE INVITED!
In this webinar, you'll discover the one thing that's actually keeping capable, accomplished women over 50 stuck and, it's not what you think. It's not a lack of time. It's not overthinking. It's not that you don't know what you want.
My friend...Once you see it, you can't unsee it.
You'll learn:
😀 The four myths about being stuck that feel true but are actually keeping you exactly where you are
😀 Why thinking "I just need more time" almost never solves the real problem (and what does)
😀 The real reason the thought "I don't know what I want" isn't the honest answer it feels like
😀 What happens in your brain when you're coasting on autopilot and how to tell if you are
😀 A simple question that reveals, in about 15 seconds, what's actually not working in your life right now
😀 How to start hearing the whispers of what you want again, instead of talking yourself out of them
This isn't about scrapping everything you’ve ever done or built so far. It’s also not about becoming someone new.
Instead, it's about waking up to the one life you already have.
Here’s the thing: Aging is a privilege. And time matters.
Join me for an authentic, encouraging hour based on experience in the midlife coaching space for over 10 years that will help you see your next chapter more clearly than you have in a long time. ...

For decades, I told myself I was creative. But not really creative. I could do lettering and calligraphy. But I couldn't draw or paint. So being creative became something I did on the side of my life instead of something I let myself really own.
In this episode, I'm tracing that belief all the way back through a bathroom valance I made just because I wanted to, a plain Ikea table turned into a chessboard, and years of doodling whales I love so much I bought a domain for it. Then something happened. It felt like the summer that cracked creativity open. It centered around a cancelled Grand Canyon rafting trip, a friend's art studio, and a decision to create something rather than have a summer with only sadness.
This isn't a story about becoming an artist. It's a story about giving yourself permission and about one of the most common regrets I hear from midlife women: not letting yourself be happy. Please enjoy!
