Text Paige about this episode
Apparently, somewhere around 50, women are supposed to wake up, run out of f*cks and stop caring what anybody thinks.
Yeah… that hasn’t exactly been my experience.
I still care. I still overthink. I still replay conversations in my head and occasionally wonder whether I’ve made a complete d*ckhead of myself.
What’s changed is that other people’s opinions don’t automatically get the final vote anymore.
In this episode, I’m talking about why confidence hits differently in midlife — and why I think it has far less to do with becoming fearless and much more to do with learning to trust yourself.
I get honest about the difference between being capable and actually feeling confident, how years of overcompensating for being bipolar shaped the version of me everyone saw, and what happened when the roles I’d built my identity around started changing.
We’re also talking preferences, personal style, social confidence, saying no without submitting a 14-page supporting document, admitting when you need help, allowing yourself some bloody joy — and doing things before you feel completely ready.
Because maybe midlife confidence isn’t about finally becoming certain of yourself.
Maybe it’s about becoming much harder to talk out of yourself.
