I was at a retreat in Bali when I was asked to do something that made me want to disappear into the floor.
I had to ask a group of women for things I wanted. Simple things. Things to make my space more comfortable.
And I froze.
I couldn't think of a single thing to ask for.
Not because I didn't want anything, but because I had spent so long not asking, not inconveniencing anyone, just getting on with it, that I had completely lost the ability to even identify what I needed.
Sound familiar?
Maybe you're the woman who goes to work every day at a job you've had for years, you like it, it's fine, but lately there's this quiet voice asking "is this it?"
Maybe you come home, cook tea, tidy up, and then sink into the couch and turn on the TV โ not because you love what's on, but because it's the only way to stop your brain from thinking for five minutes.
And somewhere underneath all of that routine and responsibility is a woman who has absolutely no idea what she actually wants anymore. Not because she's broken. But because she's spent twenty years making sure everyone else was ok first.
Back in that room in Bali, I closed my eyes.
And when I opened them every woman in that room had quietly circled around me.
And they said "we love you."
I wanted to deflect it. Move the attention on quickly. But what I actually felt in that moment stopped me completely.
I felt seen. Supported. Unconditionally.
And I realised I couldn't remember the last time I'd let myself feel that.
That moment changed something in me.
And it's exactly why I created the Find Your Midlife Magic session โ because every woman deserves to feel that kind of clarity about who she is and what she's here for next.
If that quiet voice is getting louder, I'd love to help you listen to it. ๐ฎ
