In this episode, our guest Christa Hull shares stories from her midlife journey and career transformation. She shares what it was like working with some of Vancouver’s top lifestyle brands, while also struggling with hormone changes, sleep issues, mood swings, and the grief of losing her mother suddenly. Christa talks about the moment she decided to step away from the fast-paced corporate world, choosing instead to slow down, prioritize self-care, and embrace practices including meditation, therapy, and mindful living.
She also dives into her transition into entrepreneurship—building a coaching and consulting business centered on leadership and community. Recently, she teamed up with her colleague Michelle Lazar to launch a masterclass on community marketing. Throughout our conversation, Christa reflects on the power of authenticity, the importance of community, and how embracing change can lead to something even better.
If you're navigating midlife shifts, this episode is full of wisdom, encouragement, inspiration and the perfect injection of laughter, just when it is needed.
