The Pete the Planner® Show

The truth about a mid-life crisis


Listen Later

Forget the convertible and the questionable haircut — the real midlife crisis happens when you open your retirement account and realize the math isn’t mathing. In this solo episode, Pete explores the emotional and financial crossroads that hit in your 40s and 50s — when time feels shorter, careers plateau, and money goals start bumping into real life.

He unpacks why financial growth slows down, how priorities shift, and what to do when your sense of progress feels stuck on pause. From redefining success to right-sizing your lifestyle, this episode is part therapy session, part pep talk, and entirely relatable.
Key takeaway: Your midlife crisis isn’t a breakdown — it’s a recalibration.
