This week I turn 50. Instead of balloons or cake, I’m marking this milestone by sharing five truths that feel carved into me now. Call it my 5 for 50. These are the lessons I’m carrying into this next decade—about boundaries, embodiment, reciprocity, friendship, and trusting the timing of my life.

If you’re in your 40s, 50s, 60s, I hope you hear yourself in these truths. And if you’re younger, I hope you take them as reminders to claim your life sooner rather than later.

In this episode I share:

• Why I will no longer overexplain myself
• How my body, not the clock, sets the pace for my life
• The line I’ve drawn around reciprocity in relationships and work
• The honest truth about not knowing how to be a good friend until later in life
• Why I am no longer comparing my timeline to anyone else’s

Mentioned in this episode:

• Book a B.E.I.N.G. Session
