You think you're just waiting until life gets easier...until the kid graduates, until the project wraps, until the hot flashes stop. But here's the truth: waiting is costing you your one big, wild life. And midlife? That’s your wake-up call.

🎙️ Episode Summary:

In this fiery, heart-to-heart episode, Laurie calls out one of the most common habits among high-achieving midlife women: waiting.
Waiting until your job settles down.
Waiting until the kids are grown.
Waiting until your parents are taken care of.
Waiting until you feel better in your body.

But what if waiting is exactly what’s keeping you stuck?

Drawing from raw conversations with coaching clients, her own story of midlife reinvention, and the painful realities of caregiving and aging, Laurie makes the case that you can’t keep waiting to live your life—because eventually, you’ll run out of time.

She also ties in the School of Midlife’s upcoming free masterclass about why so many women still don’t feel like themselves even after addressing their physical symptoms—because until you figure out what you really want, fulfillment will always feel just out of reach.

In this episode:

• The invisible cost of “waiting for the right time”
• Why you don’t need to quit your job or blow up your life to make a change
• What’s really stopping you from putting yourself first
• A fresh reframe on success in midlife
• How to start now—before everything is perfect
