About this episode

The episode explores the idea of midlife as a calling rather than a crisis, encouraging women to pursue their true desires.

What if this isn’t a midlife crisis? What if it’s a calling into something more? In this episode, I’m talking about the pull so many women feel in midlife, why we keep talking ourselves out of what we really want, and what happens when we choose safety over the life that’s trying to call us forward. If you’re listening and thinking, “Okay… this is me,” DM me the word BEGIN @janelleminto on Instagram, or book a Spart Session with me here https://calendly.com/janelle-minto . And we’ll have a conversation and see what’s possible for you.
