In this week’s edition of Tranquility du Jour, I chat with guest Dr. Ellen Albertson on:
The Seven Steps to Rock Your Midlife
Dr. Ellen shares a transformative framework from her book Rock Your Midlife, including: know yourself, love yourself, energize yourself, reprogram your brain, empower yourself, rehab your relationships, and enlighten yourself. Each step is designed to guide women toward deeper self-understanding, vibrant health, and personal empowerment.
Redefining Midlife Through Resilience and Joy
From blindness to breast cancer, divorce to career pivots, Dr. Ellen opens up about how these challenges catalyzed her growth. She reframes adversity as an invitation to reinvent yourself and emphasizes that midlife can be the richest, most joyful chapter yet.
Breaking Up with the Hustle Culture
A former workaholic, Dr. Ellen describes how she stepped away from burnout by embracing her Human Design, discovering hand pan music, and becoming a yoga teacher. She encourages women to create space for new passions and reject the belief that worth is tied to productivity.
Tranquility Through Ritual and Self-Compassion
From walking barefoot on her Vermont property to tapping, journaling, strength training, and HeartMath breathing, Dr. Ellen’s daily rituals are rooted in self-love and embodiment. Her biggest advice? Make self-compassion your superpower—and let joy lead the way.
