#194: 6 Lessons You Need About Fear, Courage & Career Transitions (That No One Talks About)


Listen Later

What if fear wasn’t a stop sign, but a green light?


 In this mini episode of The Midlife Reinvention Podcast, I share deeply personal lessons from my own career and life transitions. Whether you’re exploring your ikigai, contemplating a bold career move, or simply trying to find the courage to show up as yourself—this one’s for you.

Fear often shows up right before something meaningful. So how do you face it without letting it stop you?

In this episode you will discover:

  1. The #1 mindset shift that turned fear into fuel during my own transition

  2. Why your story—not perfection—is your greatest asset in any reinvention

  3. Practical ways to take small, brave steps that lead to massive momentum

If you’re standing at a crossroads, this episode is your reminder that courage isn’t the absence of fear—it’s what carries you through it.


 🎧 Tap play and rediscover your path, your voice, and your power.
