Embracing Midlife with Karen Skidmore

Karen Skidmore is a Business Growth Coach and co-founder of the Embrace Midlife and Menopause Festival, taking place on October 21st and 22nd October 2021. In this episode, we talk about how catastrophic moments in our lives can push us to the edge, fear of ageing and dying and how embracing - rather than fighting - midlife and celebrating all that we are frees us to move forward.

About the Midlife and Beyond Podcast.  Like all transitions, midlife can be messy and sad and glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone and somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to?  I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50, and I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives.  The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time. Because we only become invisible when when we stop seeing ourselves.  email [email protected] to take part in the podcast or suggest guests.  See The Midlife & Beyond section of my website for more information and resources to help you navigate change with less stress and more joy! www.joblackwell.co.uk
