Staying in a job and life that no longer fits comes at a price. From energy drains to lost opportunities, the hidden costs of career misalignment quietly erode confidence and joy. In this blog, learn how to spot the signs, understand the toll it takes, and take your first step toward a career, and life, that truly fit.

The truth is we can’t sustain powerful work, big visions, or wholehearted leadership without pause. We need moments of stillness to reclaibrate, reconnect and remember why we started in the first place.

To me, midlife begins around 39 and stretches to about 59. Not because of a number. But because something shifts inside. You start asking different questions. You stop tolerating old answers. You begin to wonder whether the life you’ve built still fits the person you’re becoming.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, unsteady, or unsure of your next steps — you’re not imagining it. We are living through a time of deep uncertainty. War, global conflict, economic instability, political upheaval — it’s affecting all of us. And for many women navigating career and life transitions, it can feel especially destabilising.

Hitting 50 and beyond is a time of opportunity and growth, even if it might not always feel that way! Practical and empowering tips on how to thrive in your career and life in midlife.
