Many women arrive at midlife with a deep need for rest after caring for others for much of their lives. If you’ve spent years fueled by adrenaline and caffeine like I once did, you may not feel comfortable stepping off the go-hard path.

It’s time to lock down three healthy habits and make them part of your healthier and happier midlife journey every day.
