Reinventing Ourselves in our 50s
In this inspiring episode, I speak with Bettina Peets about her transformative reinvention journey from midlife crisis to midlife courage. Through the creation of Adventures For the Soul in her 50s, Bettina exemplifies how embracing change and leveraging our passions can lead to a bold and kickass new chapter. It’s a journey from self-doubt to self-discovery.
What started as a midlife crisis when her daughter left for college, transformed into a powerful example of midlife courage – what happens when we acknowledge our fears and doubts, look within, and tune into our greater purpose. Reinventing can be an amazing experience!
Bettina shows us that reinventing ourselves in midlife can be both fun and inspiring when we tune into who we’re meant to be.
