This episode looks at the Gen X blueprint many women inherited, the one that taught us to be capable, responsible, and endlessly strong while quietly disconnecting us from our own softness. We talk about how midlife exposes the cost of carrying everything alone, and how allowing tenderness, vulnerability, and rest can expand your definition of strength. It is an invitation to stop surviving and start softening into a more human way of being.
