Welcome to another episode of the Women in the Middle Podcast
It’s common to have some mind drama about the first time you’re offered a senior discount in midlife. It can surprise you and throw you for a loop.
Today’s episode helps you understand why you may not respond the same way to receiving senior discounts as you do to receiving other discounts. You likely think you’re too young for a senior discount. But, someone may offer you a senior discount on the spot while you’re cashing out at the register and you may have mixed feelings about it.
Three reasons mind drama and senior discounts may be a weird and perhaps uncomfortable situation for you are explored.
It’s a great opportunity to notice your thoughts and feelings about aging and being offered a senior discount; then you can take a moment to decide whether or not you like your reasons. This new awareness is another way to help set yourself up for being more intentional and having more happiness in midlife.
