Redefining Midlife with Jo Clark

192. Why Waiting to Feel Ready Is Keeping You Stuck


Listen Later

"I've missed my window." "Someone younger would do this better." Jo pushes back hard on both of these stories in this episode and makes the case that everything you've lived through so far isn't a disadvantage. It's your biggest head start.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why the "too old to start" story is an outdated trope

  • The decades of resilience you're carrying that your 20-something self didn't have

  • The body's odd habit of confusing "new" with "dangerous"

  • Picturing what could go right, not just what could go wrong

  • The one small step that actually gets you moving

You're not starting from zero. This episode is a reminder of everything you're already bringing with you.
