Your Magical Midlife

The leap feels amazing. Then comes the predictable panic. Leaving the job, leaving what’s dead, building Desert Bloom. Dreams are safe. Doing can fail. Fear dresses up as prudence. Name the fear. Do the big scary thing anyway.

Why I’m easing off traditional psychiatry toward ceremonial work. Diagnoses as a guessing game. Medications that may or may not help. Ten years of retreading trauma (almost) never changes the way you feel.  Intention + ritual + a real act — like ashes in the water — moves the needle.  Lifts the feelings. Its what we do with our hands that heals our hearts.

Hot Girl Summer grows up. Gets some sleeves and eats at dusk. She's still got her wild streak but with a tired nervous system. Maiden / Mother / Empress / Crone as weather, not a quiz. Ambivalence about aging allowed. Hot was a costume. Fall is permission to stop auditioning for the parts of you that you've outgrown.

It's Saturday night, and we are north of 40. The couch wins. A caftan, a canceled plan, Tim Gunn over a Tito’s and tonic. Gen X already got it in — this is off the clock, not off the joy. Harvest Moon energy: bring in what’s ripe. Leave the rest in the dark. If you're with me, give this episode a listen.

Ojo site visit for Desert Bloom was done and dusted. Then off to The Midst in Pasadena for The Midst: How The Fuck to Old, Justina Blakeney. Inspiration overload. Two travel days in a four-day trip. Soft Girl Era: I don’t recover like I’m twenty-eight. Saturday night in my own pool with my honey. Inspired. Then I needed a week.

I was humbled at the physical stress and strain I felt while recently traveling to NYC-a place I thrived in not that long ago. I need more now. And that's okay. Have you discovered this about yourself as you've aged ?

I witnessed the terrorist attacks while working on an inpatient adolescent psych unit at Elmhurst Hospital. Here's how that day changed me, changed NYC and what I learned about resilience and letting go.

In August I traveled North to scatter my father's ashes in the Long Island Sound. It was the complicated closure I didn't even know I needed. 

Releasing yourself from the past and isn't about denial or bypassing the hurt, it's about acknowledging it, and letting go of it. For you.

Your Wound Isn’t in the Way — It Is the Way

What if the parts of your story you’ve been trying to hide are actually the very things that qualify you? 

In this episode I talk about the old belief that our wounds, messy choices, and late-blooming paths disqualify us — and how the opposite is true. Your imperfect life isn’t a liability. It’s the ground you stand on. You get to heal. You get to be happy. 

Your wound isn’t in the way.
It is the way.

This is episode 100.

In this special milestone episode, I look back at the messy, beautiful journey of the past hundred episodes — what I’ve learned about unmasking, midlife loneliness, sacred silliness, and becoming who we were always meant to be.

Thank you for walking with me. Here’s to the next hundred episodes of still becoming.
