What if the midlife crisis isn't a crisis at all?
We've all heard the phrases — the quarter-life crisis, the midlife crisis — and most of us picture the same thing: someone buying a sports car, blowing up their whole life overnight. For years, I rolled my eyes at the idea. My life was "normal"… until it wasn't.
In this solo episode, I get honest about the season that forced my own realization — losing my job, back-to-back surgeries, losing my dad, my brother's diagnosis — and how, somewhere in the middle of all of it, I finally understood I wasn't unhappy with my work. I was living my life on pause.
We get into the science that made me feel less alone: where the term "midlife crisis" even comes from, the U-shaped happiness curve, and the quietly powerful idea of languishing — that joyless, aimless, going-through-the-motions feeling that isn't depression and isn't burnout. I share the story of the woman who walked into my lobby with a vase of flowers, the question a friend asked that I couldn't answer, and what the regrets of the dying taught me about the life I was about to keep chasing.
