What the Heck? Is Midlife Crisis Really a Thing?
Sunburnt Souls – Where Faith and Mental Health Collide
In this episode of Sunburnt Souls, Dave sits down with Dr. Stephen Beaumont, an expert in counselling and pastoral supervision, to unpack the mystery of the midlife crisis. Is it a legitimate psychological phenomenon, or is it just a cultural myth?
Understanding the Midlife Transition
For those in their 40s to 60s, life can bring significant transitions—career shifts, relationship changes, aging parents, and deep moments of self-reflection. Dr. Beaumont helps us explore:
- What actually happens in midlife—biologically, emotionally, and spiritually.
- How culture shapes our expectations of this life stage.
- Whether the "midlife crisis" is inevitable or just a Western construct.
How to Navigate Midlife Well
Instead of viewing midlife as a season of crisis, Dr. Beaumont shares healthy practices for embracing it as a time of growth, renewal, and purpose. Topics include:
- How to process identity shifts with faith and wisdom.
- The role of self-reflection in shaping a meaningful second half of life.
- How spiritual and mental health practices can bring clarity and peace.
