This episode is all about navigating, embracing, and enjoying midlife with guest expert and midlife alchemist Dr. Lisa Petty.
Dr. Lisa wrote the book Forget About Having it All – The Midlife Women’s Guide To Creating The Life You want. Her book explores the myth of having it all and the social expectations that hold women to an impossible standard. She shares how women can unplug from the programming that tells them what they should want, so they can focus on creating more of what you actually want in their lives. After hearing about this book and hitting 40 this year I knew I had to have Dr. Lisa on the podcast to share her wisdom with women.
Dr. Lisa is an author and teacher who specializes in helping women navigate midlife. Following an extensive career in nutrition and preventative health, she earned her PhD in Applied Health Sciences (Social and Cultural Health).
