Stop pushing so hard (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You spent decades working in ways that were mostly about adapting yourself to others’s standards, and made little sense to you.This is how most of us operated throughout life. School wasn’t intuitive for many of us, but we accepted—and adapted to—it because this was expected of us, and because we grew up in households that trained us to suppress our authentic selves.Then, a string of employers rewarded us for suppressing our emotions in favor of achieving OKRs.The more we distracted ourselves fr
Why you don’t need to worry (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If there’s a significant problem in your life, you may find yourself stuck in the same tendency I often find myself drawn into—worry.I think it’s near impossible to sit in the fire of a difficult problem without spinning our wheels trying to figure out how to solve it.

You deserve what you want (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If you’re reading this, there’s probably something you want.Something you’ve wanted your whole life. And now that you’re in midlife—realizing your days are numbered (because this is what midlife is about waking up to)—you’re committed to finally going after it. This doesn’t mean there aren’t days when you feel completely hopeless. This is a normal part of the process. Just watch this video that a quarter million people related to about how normal it is to take backwards steps when you’re moving
