Why Midlife Feels Like Everything's Falling Apart (It’s Actually OK)
About this episode
🍂 FREE Autumn Equinox Gathering Sep 22 (RSVP + Watch for YouTube Live)If you're somewhere in midlife and it feels like everything's falling apart at once...your work, your relationships, where you live, even your sense of who you are all up for review at the same time...you're not going crazy, and you're not alone. There's a real reason this happens, and no one warns us about it. It tends to arrive right as we cross into the second half of life and stay with us through the transition. In this episode I share what I've been living through all Summer, why this "everything's falling apart" feeling shows up as if right on schedule, and how to navigate the discomfort of it.📕 FREE Journaling Workbook: Journaling as a Path to Come✨ FREE GUIDE: 7 Keys to RECLAIM Your Soul — A free guide and audio series with seven essential pathways back to your Soul to help you heal Soul-sickness, remember your True Self, and live a Soul-led life.I'm so glad you're here.💜 Kim Marie🔥 JOIN THE SOULSTEAD (FREE COMMUNITY): Click here to join our free community.
