Ever hit that moment where you’re like… wait, what is happening with my life right now? In this episode we talk about what it really feels like turning 40 as a woman and going through all the emotions that come with life in your 40s. From wondering if you're having a midlife crisis to feeling the urge to start reinventing yourself at 40, this conversation gets very real. We get into the chaos of women over 40 life changes, the rollercoaster of perimenopause emotions, and what it's like living with high functioning ADHD as a woman while trying to hold everything together. We also talk a lot about motherhood — the strange feeling when you realize your kids are growing up too fast, the worries that come with parenting teens, and the emotions around possible empty nest anxiety. When so much of your life has been centered around your kids, it can lead to a real mom identity crisis and questions about motherhood and identity. Add in the constant women’s mental load, trying to juggle everything, and suddenly you’re feeling overwhelmed as a mom while navigating all these life transitions in your 40s. This episode is really about finding yourself again, going through self discovery after 40, and figuring out how to start balancing motherhood and self while dealing with the very real anxiety in your 40s. If you’re going through life in your 40s, feeling like you’re changing, growing, or questioning everything… you’re definitely not alone.
