Becoming Who’s Next: Rewriting Your Life in Midlife
In this thoughtful and tender conversation, Kathy sits down with Sonya Fehér, a life coach who helps midlife women navigate transitions in identity, purpose, and relationships. Together they unpack what happens when the roles we’ve lived by begin to shift or fade, and how we can reimagine who we are when the script changes.
Sonya shares deeply personal reflections on divorce, single parenting, caregiving for her mother, grappling with loss, and learning to live with awareness that time is not guaranteed. She and Kathy explore the invisible weight of midlife expectations, from career changes to menopause, and how to replace “shoulds” and shame with curiosity and self-compassion.
You’ll hear how Sonya helps women assess and rebalance their energy across areas like career, health, relationships, and creativity. And you’ll be reminded that the goal of midlife isn’t to cling to who we were; it’s to discover who we’re becoming.
Key Takeaways
Loss and identity are intertwined. Midlife often brings a cascade of transitions (aging parents, grown children, career shifts) that challenge how we define ourselves.
Midlife is not expiration. Despite cultural narratives of invisibility, this stage can be expansive and full of new possibilities and rediscovery.
Redefining “I’m a person who…” We outgrow versions of ourselves; letting that evolution happen can be freeing rather than frightening.
Experimentation is essential. From fitness habits to friendships, trying new things - and being okay when they don’t stick - helps clarify what truly fits now.
