How to Get Through Your Mid-Life Crisis with Lauren Zander
About this episode
“I am impressed with the midlife crisis.” We’re thrilled to welcome Lauren Zander, CEO and founder of the Handel Group, back to Hotter Than Ever. As a life coach, whose coaching technique, the Handel Method, has been taught at MIT, Stanford Business School, and to the likes of CEOs and celebrities, Lauren is no stranger to helping her clients navigate through midlife crises. Yet when Lauren experienced a midlife crisis of her own, it rocked her to her core ways that she could have never anticipated.
Join us for a candid and introspective conversation as Erin and Lauren share their personal midlife crisis journeys, what they learned in the aftermath, and how they rebuilt their lives and relationships into something more authentic and profound. We discuss:
- Breaking stereotypes and why midlife crises are sexy and liberating for women—not just men
- How the ending of their respective marriages ignited Lauren and Erin’s midlife transformations
- Reconstructing your identity after a long marriage
- Discerning true friendships and gaining clarity on what you need out of relationships
- Coming out on the other side of a midlife crisis—embracing self-honesty, listening to your body, and focusing on what’s most important
- Discovering the beauty in rebuilding a life, relationships, and aspirations with deeper significance and alignment
