In this episode, we explore the journey from living on autopilot to becoming the conscious author of your life, especially for women in midlife. We discuss how years of prioritizing others, societal conditioning, and overwhelming responsibilities can lead to disconnection from our authentic desires and purpose.
Key points covered:
- The signs you're living on autopilot: feeling like you're just checking boxes, making decisions based on habit rather than desire, and struggling to articulate what you truly want
- Why midlife women are particularly susceptible to autopilot living and the hidden costs of this disconnection
- Practical strategies to wake up and reclaim your authorship, including the Power of Pause, daily intention setting, and conscious disruption of patterns
- How to shift from "should" to "could" thinking to open up new possibilities
- The importance of starting your day on purpose and regularly checking in with yourself
Remember that purpose isn't something you find—it's something you choose, every single day.
