What happens when the big job ends and no one's lining up to offer another? For Andrew Middleton, that moment sparked an identity crisis, financial panic, and ultimately, a radical reinvention. In this honest and hopeful episode, Andrew shares how it felt to be “airlifted out of relevance” in his 50s, facing ageism, self-doubt, and the loss of structure that once defined his life. But he didn't stop there. Instead, he built something new: a portfolio career based on curiosity, joy, and meaningful work including founding I'm Not Done Yet (INDY), a growing community for older people seeking purpose beyond retirement. You'll learn: Why traditional retirement isn't the only option - and might not be the right one;How to navigate the emotional and financial shocks of leaving a long career;Why soft retirement, side hustles, and experimentation might be the key to fulfilment;How to rebuild identity, community, and self-worth outside corporate life;Why men in midlife need to talk and how doing so changes everything.If you've ever wondered, “What now?” or feared becoming invisible as you age, this episode offers reassurance, inspiration, and a roadmap forward.

Welcome to Season 6 of the Rocking Midlife® Podcast!

Today's episode will help you understand the importance of increasing your awareness of your limiting beliefs in midlife. When you're in midlife, your decades of experience and life make it easy to believe what you think; sometimes that means your automatic thinking. When you make a specific effort to look for thoughts about what you may think you're too old to do, what you find out can be revealing. You may believe limiting beliefs about what you can really do, think, feel, and try on purpose. This will make it harder for you to fulfill your dreams.

According to our guest, there is a spectrum and on one end a spa visit or a break may help but on the other end, your commitment to work will dominate your existence and in some cases will be a tipping point to depression or worse.

She shares her story and ways to manage your life to avoid burnout. This is an important conversation with an expert who has made it her life's work to help others prevent and/or stop burnout. *This is a podcast interview and not intended to be mental health advice.

The first time put her in and out of the hospital for 7 months. The second time nearly killed her. Why she is on a mission to educate others about burnout and to help prevent it. How her 12-year old twin boys became her wake-up call. How burnout can you leave you not thinking clearly. Three things for everyone to think about for prevention and recovery Who are you?
