Talk With Susan

Solo Episode - A first in a series about Traversing Our Mid Life Journey

This will be a first in a series of solo episodes about our midlife journey.  I am starting with a talk about defining midlife. I ask that you set aside these 20 some odd minutes to listen without interruption and with an open mind and open heart.  Maybe make yourself a soothing cup of tea and have your journal beside you as I prompt you with questions and thoughts that will hopefully provoke your curiosity, your thoughts and inner dialogue. If you could have one inner wisdom statement right now, what would it be? What do you feel is your biggest midlife challenge? Are you ready for a new opportunity?  Reframe midlife 'crisis' to midlife 'opportunity'. Reframe your own crisis into an opportunity statement.  ie my crisis is the loss of my identity.  My reframe is this is an opportunity to create my new identity. Use your imagination; how do you see your new life?  Choose one area of 'new'; what feeling comes up for you? Identify a persona that you take on in order to meet the expectations of someone else.  How does that make you feel?

From Feeling Lost and Hopeless to Reclaiming Her Confidence. Deb Johnstone-Her Mid Life Journey to Thriving

I'm thrilled to have as my guest a woman of inspiration.  I befriended Deb through our common passions and am honored that she accepted my invitation to have a conversation on Talk With Sue. Deb Johnstone is a professional speaker, writer, transformational coach, stylist, midlife transition mentor and yoga teacher. She is the founder of Women Reinventing MidLife and Transformational Pathways Australia. She is the creator of her signature program HER Rediscovery and the Women Reinventing Mid Life Club. She’s host of the YouTube channel, WRM TV and host of the WRM Summit Series where she supports women in the middle phase and beyond to rediscover themselves, build confidence and find new exciting direction. Deb has been through two midlife transitions herself. The first in 2012 as her kids were flying the nest and she started her own business. And the second when her dear father passed away and she hit rock bottom. Guided by her intuition through her grief, Deb created and took herself through a process that helped her move from feeling lost and hopeless to reclaiming her confidence, sparking her motivation and getting in touch with her real sense of identity. This ignited her passion to help other women experience this phase of life as the empowering transformational period it is. Deb says, "I have had a number of pain points. The first was when my mum passed away. I was 29 and pregnant with my second child. The second major one was my divorce and becoming a single mum at 34. The third major one was when my kids were getting ready to fly the nest and I changed my career to life coaching at 49. The most recent major pain point was when my father passed away and I hit rock bottom, learned to listen to my intuition and acted on it."

Aging Audaciously with Lisa Levine

Author & Certified Life & Health Coach, empowering women to age audaciously in body, mind & spirit. Lisa Levine has written a wonderful book about aging audaciously titled Mid Life, No Crisis. We sat and talked our way through the book, chapter by chapter.  There is too much goodness in this book and we didn't want to skip over anything, Any women who is experiencing transition in midlife will benefit from this book.  I know I did.   "The book provides easy, actionable advice to help you let go of what's holding you back to become the best version of yourself.   The book is packed with humor, inspirational quotes and practical tools and encorages you to use this transformative time to practice self care, cultivate positive habits and overcome fear so you can start living the awesome life you deserve.  The book is meant to help you create a plan to age audaciously on whatever terms you choose."   Lisa Levine She is a Certified Life and Health coach living in Seattle, Washington. Her career started in music business in NY and LA during the 80's and 90's working within the music video industry. Her first life transtion was when she got out of that business.   From there she started working toward a Masters in psychology before becoming pregnant and going on to raise her children. Around the age of  49 she wanted more meaning in her life and because of her own health challenges and that ofher daughters, her interest in health and wellness peaked.  She went on to get a coaching certicate from the Martha Beck Institute and continued at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition.  By the time she finished her coaching certification, she had greater clarity of purpose in her life and had a direction she knew she wanted to go in.  Prior to that she likened her experience like being in a boat in foggy waters without oars and not seeing the shore.

My Upcoming Offer - Cow Path to New Path

I'm excited to share this opportunity to work with me in a group coaching setting.  This is an introduction to my offer and more detailed information will follow.  I hope you join in and catch the excitement that I am feeling in my own journey.

"I don't want to let myself down". Misha Frankel. An intimate conversation.

There is so much we discussed that it's impossible to 'summarize' all that we spoke of. The greatest take away for me, in the most powerful sense, is when Misha shared her experience of looking at herself in the mirror, realized she didn't like what she saw or felt.  That was only the beginning of her new journey.  A journey that started with questions.  Internal questions she asked herself.  She began hearing her internal answers through breaking away from her life of expectations to a place of silence and new spiritual practices. It took great courage, in her own words, to wite her book, Gateway to the Soul.  How often are we too afraid to corageously step forward and listen to our still inner voice that is trying to direct us to become our best selves.  Misha shares about her courage to change her life.  A life she knew needed change. My conversation with Misha was so special for me.  What she spoke of resonated with my own journey.  (20+) Misha Frankel | Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/misha.frankel] GATEWAY TO THE SOUL: Exploring our Hidden Potentials - Kindle edition by Frankel, Misha .
