So many myths in midlife to dispel, let’s start with these 7…

❌Myth #1 Your “best before date” has long expired
✅Sure midlife can be a time of loss, but our assets, strengths and skills can by far enrich our lives along with the acquired wisdom.

❌Myth #2: Changing careers in midlife is difficult or even impossible
✅Staying sharp, eager, curious and relevant can open doors for new and exciting career opportunities

❌Myth #3: Your best body was in your 20’s
✅Anti-inflammatory food choices and discipline with weight bearing exercises, rest and reducing stress can yield great physical results 50+

❌Myth #4: Physical intimacy wanes over 50
✅Physical (and emotional) intimacy with your partner can be far more satisfying in midlife due to trust, transparency and a lack of inhibition to speak up about your needs and desires. Talk with your menopause practitioner or counselor if you’re struggling in this area among others.

❌Myth #5: Empty nesting is a “syndrome”
✅Parents in general, and mothers in particular, report increased well-being and increased satisfaction with parenting once their children are out on their own, according to Psychology Today.

❌Myth #6: Retiring means sailing off into the sunset
✅This isn’t our parents’ retirement. Sandwiched between caring for aging parents and assisting our young adult children can leave us in a continued caregiver state. Plan and prepare.

❌Myth #7: You’re in control of your destiny
✅The greatest peace comes from trusting God’s plan over your life .. Jeremiah 29:11: "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future".
