As you move through the Christmas gatherings and small talk about work and life, is there a quieter part of you wondering, “Can I really keep doing this for another ten years?”

For many midlife professionals, the holidays bring more than just celebration—they spark deep reflection. Amid the lights and laughter, there's often a quieter voice asking if “fine” is really good enough. This episode speaks directly to that inner voice and helps you begin the new year with clarity, not just resolutions.

In this special Christmas episode:

• Discover the 3 hidden patterns that may be quietly holding you back from work that truly fits who you are now.
• Learn why pretending everything is “fine” erodes your self-trust—and what to do instead.
• Hear how leaving behind the myth of perfect timing can unlock real, aligned change in your career and life.

Listen now to uncover what you need to leave behind this Christmas to create the space for a more authentic and fulfilling next chapter.
