What if the reason you’re not expanding… isn’t because you’re not capable—but because you’re not available for it?

In this solo episode of Midlife Audacity, I’m bringing you into something I’m actively learning in real time as I begin reading The Big Leap. This isn’t a “I’ve mastered it” conversation—this is a come with me conversation.

We’re diving into the Upper Limit Problem… the subtle, often unconscious ways we pull ourselves back just as life starts to feel good.

You’ll hear real, relatable examples of how this shows up in midlife:
 • When things are finally clicking at work… and you start second-guessing yourself
 • When you’re feeling happy and at peace… and then create tension in your relationship
 • When your children become more independent… and it quietly shakes your identity
 • When life feels good… and your mind starts waiting for the other shoe to drop

This isn’t about self-sabotage in obvious ways.

It’s about the quiet, everyday patterns that keep you stuck in what’s familiar—even when you’re ready for more.

We also explore the connection between mindset and nervous system regulation, and why your body may interpret expansion as unsafe… even when it’s exactly what you want.

I’ll leave you with a series of powerful reflection questions to help you notice where you might be holding yourself back—and what becomes possible when you allow yourself to stay in the good just a little longer.

This is the exact work we’ll be diving into inside my May Book Study Seminar, where we don’t just read the book… we live it.

If you’ve been feeling the pull toward something more—but also noticing yourself retreating… this episode is for you.
