About this listen

 KEY WORDS: awaken, midlife changes, passion, purpose, soul-searching, true self, authenticity, alignment, encouragement, growth GUEST WELCOME: Jen Underwood has spent 20+ years hiding in a basement working in public service. A book-writing project aimed at sharing her words of wisdom with her soon-to be 18 year old son took a surprising turn that caused Jen to awaken. It took her nearly 40 years to finally WAKE UP to living her life with purpose, passion and authenticity, and now says she can’t go back to sleep. She is on a mission to not only live her life the way she was meant to, but to also help others do the same. She recently started the Shake Me Awake podcast with the goal of speaking to others about how to show up authentically and live their lives with purpose and passion. She is determined to live life on HER OWN terms! NEWS: Women Behaving Boldly Retreat in Italy in 2025?!

The website is www.womenbehavingboldly.com BOLD POINTS Try to find your happiness in this world. Show up as your true self. Ask yourself a lot of questions. Who am I? What are your life lessons? How would you like to live? Who do you want to be? What are your true gifts? What are you passionate about? What’s your personal purpose? Do some soul-searching and discover what you want out of life. How would you live differently if you knew your days were numbered? Time is short. Start taking steps in that direction and the universe will start lighting your path. If you have lots of ideas and need to find a focus, ask yourself what is most in alignment for you, what do you want, and what do you hope to get out of it. Ask yourself what your goal is. Allow yourself wiggle room and schedule in what you want to do and need to do. Stop caring about what other people expect of you or think about you. Remember that we are our own gatekeepers to our own success and in living the life we want. When doubts creep in, find ways to encourage yourself and pump yourself up. Try writing little messages of encouragement to yourself. Seek out supportive circles. Choose the content you’re consuming. Live the life you’re meant to live and the life you want to live. Try to find your happiness and don’t apologize for what that looks like for you. Show up how you want to show up in life. If it lights you up, if it’s your purpose and passion, show up and do it. Shake yourself awake. Stop sleepwalking through life.
