Fire Up at 55 Plus

What are your summer memories? … The ones that stick because they make you smile, chasing away stress, and so real that you can almost feel the moments: from running on concrete with slapping bare feet, to the juicy taste of watermelon, to the pop and shimmer of fireworks in the nighttime skies. The episode that follows is no. 15 from my first weeks of podcasting for you two years ago. Listening invites joyful recollections of summer that begin in childhood, to inspire happiness we can create for any age.

Feeling stressed out? Well, of course you are, but believe it or not that’s not always a bad thing. Midlife women do report the highest levels of daily stress compared to all other demographic groups according to the American Psychological Association. That includes caregiving responsibilities, health concerns, financial transitions, and age discrimination in work and healthcare. But don’t panic—we’re here to problem solve. Stress has layers and surprising benefits. Skeptical? That’s only natural, so over two episodes I’m revealing all to help you rewrite the story of stress in your life for a happier, more content future.

Moving out of a stagnated story can be desirable and daunting as you move into midlife and then beyond. When you yearn for more, figuring out exactly what “more” means to you, can be elusive. If putting everyone else first has been a lifelong, ingrained habit, by definition, your desires have been last. For many of us who learned early on to tamp down our wants, and dreams, being seen and not heard and deferring to our elders and authority figures … well we often still don’t know how to discover and claim what we really want.

So in the interest of giving you a hand in editing the story of you for 2025, today I touch upon a bit beyond-the-box thinking to get you started. If you haven’t figured out exactly what you want, no worries! This brief but impactful episode offers some inspiring samples of what can be achieved just by releasing the old in favor of optimism for your transformation tale. Together, let’s edit it so you’ll never want to put your storybook down.
