In this week’s edition of Tranquility du Jour, I chat with Anne Flosnik on:
Living Fearlessly and Fully in Midlife
Anne shares how she’s shed fear and self-doubt in this season of life. With a strong sense of agency, she sees midlife not as a narrowing but as an expansive time filled with opportunity, curiosity, and creative possibility.
Honouring the Body with Gentle Consistency
After a surprise osteoporosis diagnosis, Anne began building supportive routines like daily rebounding (mini trampoline), strength training, and mindful nutrition. Her message: small, informed choices can strengthen body and spirit over time.
Creative Spark Through Community and Writing
A creative writing class at her local library reignited Anne’s love for storytelling and inspired her to begin writing her memoir. She highlights how simple, local resources can awaken creative energy and support our evolving sense of purpose.
Tranquility Through Trust and Self-Compassion
Anne emphasizes tuning out the noise, trusting your inner compass, and celebrating what’s going well. She encourages women to honor their intuition, stop chasing perfection, and embrace each day as an unfolding gift.
