Aging Holistically Wellness Types
Which Type Matches Your Vibe?
Standing at a crossroads, wondering what’s next?
Maybe you’ve hit your stride in many ways, but something feels… stuck. You’re ready for more meaning, more energy, more YOU in your next chapter.
The good news? You’re also standing at the perfect starting line for a new adventure.
I’ve worked with countless go-getters at a midlife crossroads who feel exactly this way. In fact, I felt exactly this way a few years ago.
I was caught by surprise when I found myself experiencing a midlife awakening, an unfamiliar awareness of my mortality for the first time.
It solemnly waved at me during Covid. I never experienced getting Covid myself, but a realization of how this virus was impacting people’s lives around the globe was especially sobering, similar to what it was probably like for you and the majority of the world (isn’t that mind-boggling to know that everyone around the world was impacted?).
For me, though there was a deeper unrest simmering beneath the surface, unrelated to the pandemic’s impact.
That summer, I resigned from everything I was participating in (volunteer gigs and personal projects) with the exception of my work coaching teens and young adults experiencing foster care and homelessness, which shifted from in person to virtual. It was wonderful to be able to support them during this time, but I personally felt directionless.
For the first time in my life, I felt like I was sitting on the edge of a precipice with no idea what I wanted to do. I was clear about me, who I was/am, I just didn’t know how to answer, ‘what next?’.
I’m not sure how, but the book Hidden Blessings: Midlife Crisis as a Spiritual Awakening wandered onto my radar in November of that year (when the student is ready, the teacher appears, right!?!). That rich content, along with the online companion course aligned with my essence, challenged my life story at that time, and helped me understand the need for a purposeful shift. It was as if the author wrote it just for me, and I received it with an open mind and heart at just the right time.
In the summer of 2022, I decided to resign from that coaching role. It was a difficult decision, but I no longer had the energetic bandwidth and focus to provide the meaningful support required for this special population. It was also evident that the organization’s and my values were slowly diverging. It simply wasn’t fair to them or to me to continue.
As providence would have it, about two months before resigning this role, another coaching opportunity with more flexibility, autonomy and a new start was offered to me; another right fit at the right time.
In the years that followed, immersing myself in research, exploration, trial and error, mindful meditation, and honest self-reflection allowed me to connect with my inner wisdom in a deeper way and find the clarity I needed to make a more meaningful shift.
Here I am, in 2025, unfolding into my purpose in my second act with a new narrative. I’ve unlearned and learned SO much over the last few years.
I’m looking forward to sharing what I’ve discovered via my life experiments, provoking a little thought, providing similar support, sprinkling some encouragement here and there, suggesting a few proven approaches, and more. My intention is to support others who find themselves at a similar midlife/second act crossroads. I understand!

👉🏽 Prefer a reflection/journaling option? Download the Areas of Life Circle!
Simply rate each of the 12 areas of life on a scale of 1-10 (10=totally satisfied, 1=totally unsatisfied), then consider why you landed on each rating, jot down any realizations, questions, etc. using this form or your journal. This can be an effective approach to examine your life holistically and begin making some shifts in your areas of choice, even setting some lightweight goals, adopting new mindsets, etc.
