ReLaunch -  NEVER GIVE UP on Your Possibilities

085 "My Midlife Sucks" with Lori Dean


Listen Later

Host of "My Midlife Sucks", Lori Dean joins us on the show to share four ideas and a handful of tips that can help us revive our mid-life champion.

Path of Development: Lori was working at a non-profit organization when she got a surprising call to be a radio host. Since that pivotal moment in time, she has become quite the broadcast media veteran - having logged hundreds of hours as a morning show co-host and producer, as well as a creator and host of music and interview shows.

ReLaunch! revival tips:

  • Feel the excitement in your body and allow your imagination to run wild.
  • Understand what you are supposed to be doing. Ask "Wouldn't this be a great way to live if____" Then gently push away from the ego's voice of "not possible";
  • The relative safety of the comfort zone is all an illusion;
  • There will be ups and downs; accept wherever you are and know it's going to pass.

What also helped:

  • Instead of waiting for retirement to do the unexpected and courageous, Lori and her husband sold their home and traveled for two years;
  • She learned to adapt, be curious, and expect a miracle;
  • Lori made meditation and daily intentions, a priority;
  • She learned how to take herself lightly and to surround herself with fun-loving people.

A book that influenced her greatly: Reframe your blame - how to be personally accountable.
