In this episode of the Coached Podcast (and the Coaching Masters series), Coach Keren Eldad sits down with reinvention expert, empowerment coach, and bestselling author Wendy Valentine, creator of The Midlife Makeover Show, the #1 podcast inspiring women worldwide to embrace midlife as a powerful new beginning. 

Wendy shares her own “from breakdown to breakthrough” journey: from heartbreak, debt, and chronic illness to driving a 25-foot RV into her future self,  and the radical tools that guided her, including:

• The Wheel of Midlife for evaluating where you are now
• Her FREEDOM Process – the exact 7 steps to reset your life, embody your new identity, and reclaim joy
• Speaking to why embodying your future self before you “arrive” can change everything
• Teaching us how small, deliberate steps (and even doing the “opposite,” as inspired by the greatest Sitcom character ever – George Costanza!) can open doors you never imagined

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to be a teacher of transformation or you’re standing at your own crossroads right now, this episode will light the way.

Key Takeaways:

• “We become great teachers by first becoming great students.”
• You can’t shortcut true reinvention, but you can make it practical.
• The “midlife crisis” can actually be a midlife awakening if you allow your old identity to die and commit to the new role.
• Kitten steps > analysis paralysis.
