We talk with Mary Farron about the moment a “happy life” stops feeling like enough and how intention turns midlife into an awakening instead of a crisis. We dig into women and entrepreneurship, positive psychology, and why purpose is built through small choices that add up to a scalable legacy.

• Building a business as a woman while managing self-doubt and risk
• The “full bucket” trap and the cost to your nervous system
• Using a midlife pause to choose meaning instead of drifting on momentum
• Bringing positive psychology into workplace culture beyond perks and platitudes
• Finding support systems when family support is not available
• Why happiness is less about circumstances and more about response
• Recovery and hardship as a fast track to awareness and gratitude
• Reconnecting leaders to belief and identity so teams can align
• Purpose as connection and contribution that shows up in everyday moments
• “You’re only old if your future is smaller than your past”
