Midlife Confidence

Our biggest challenges often lead to finding a deeply purposeful way to serve others. That’s definitely true for my guest, my very own sister Trina Limpert. She’s achieved a remarkable 25-year career in tech while being a working mom, getting through a divorce, navigating a new marriage and blended family – oh, and throw in a recession and major health scare, too! Now she helps women transition into valuable tech careers through a journey of self-discovery. You’ll love hearing Trina’s inspiring experience discovering her life mission. You can read more in her bio below. [Purpose series 4]

When your mind and your heart are spinning ... rest in the sweetness of peace. Good news, the world doesn’t need to calm down and you don’t have to get your life together before you can be at peace. We can learn how to feel it and hold on to it more often. So put that heavy load down and take a rest in peace even in a messy and uncontrollable life.

We’re designed to move, and we’re healthier and happier when we do. But sometimes our thoughts get in the way - especially as we notice signs of getting older. You can be aware and change them up so you have the inner motivation to take care of your body. The most important part is to create the right identity and focus more on building a habit than on the immediate results. Then the benefits will definitely come in time.

In this episode:

• Stop the compare and despair trap with your own past self.
• A story of what’s possible - Joan McDonald, 73 year-old fitness buff.
• Be willing to adapt workouts to where you are now – no judgment.
• The habit is more important than the activity.
• Overcoming your own resistance.
• We’re improving the mind, body, and spirit that we get to live with forever.
