Examining Our Expectations At Midlife

About this episode

Send us Fan Mail

In our 20s and 30s, expectations feel hopeful - like there’s always more time, more chances, more room to fix things. 

But in midlife, expectations hit us differently. They’re no longer just about what might happen…they’re about who we thought we’d be by now.

In this episode, we’re diving into why the disappointment of unmet expectations feels more personal in midlife, what’s happening in your brain when reality doesn’t match the picture you had in your head, and how to update your expectations without lowering your standards.

We hope this discussion helps you feel less alone and more hopeful about who you’re becoming in this next phase of life.
