The Midlife Mentors

One of the biggest mistakes we see is midlifers taking an isolated approach to overcoming a struggle or challenge they have. Maybe they don’t feel good in their body so they’ll do a diet, get a PT or hire a nutritionist. Maybe they’ll try a gadget, app or test kit. Or maybe they feel depressed, anxious and demotivated, so they seek help - maybe with a doctor who prescribes pills straight away, or they see a therapist. 

All of these are fine - but they’re not tackling things in an integrated way. And that’s essential, because we’re holistic beings. And the purpose of our approach is to bring the mind, body and soul into alignment. To look at all aspects of the self, rather than just one part. Only when we do this can we truly thrive and reach our fullest potential.

In this episode we dive into more detail about this and give you the low down on our ENRICH method.

There can be a lot of change to our career at midlife. It might be that we have change imposed on us through redundancy, or perhaps we want to shift direction. Maybe we want a slower pace of life, but don’t know how or what that looks like, so we continue to feel overwhelmed and compromise.

In this episode I James, go solo, as I talk to executive search consultant Sally Dunwoody about how to manage your career to future proof for this situation, practical steps you can take if you find yourself in this situation already, and we explore alternative avenues such as non-executive roles.

I found this a fascinating conversation and I hope you do too.
