Redefining Your Second Half of Life with Dawn Barton | Episode 144


Listen Later

As I talk to women in the second half of their lives, I often run into the belief that the most meaningful moments of life are behind them. But what if the most meaningful moments of life are really yet to come?

I talk about this in my Empty Nest, Full Life book. This midlife or second half of life is actually where we get to enjoy what I refer to as our “encore season of life.” We have so much to offer the world in this second half of life. We know more than we did in our early years, we’ve done more, we’ve lost more, and we’ve loved more. Because of our experiences in the first part of our lives, we get to leverage all that we have learned and offer it to the world in a fresh, new way.

Helping us unpack this topic is Dawn Barton. Dawn is a speaker, entrepreneur, mentor, and the author of Midlife Battle Cry. She is passionate about helping others find joy through their hardships and in her latest book she is calling women to their “second-half mission.”

In this conversation, you'll hear:

  • How your best years are still to come
  • Your experiences and lessons learned can benefit others
  • Finding joy in writing the next chapter of your life
  • And much more!

I hope you enjoy this conversation about finding and redefining your second half of life!
