In this weeks edition of Tranquility du Jour, I chat with returning guest Jennifer Louden. We discuss:
Shift in Ambition: Jenn discussed how her ambition has evolved in midlife, shifting from external validation and proving herself to living with more intention and focusing on the preciousness of life.
Navigating Grief: Experiencing the loss of loved ones deeply impacted her, reinforcing the value of life and prompting her to focus on what truly matters.
Community and Relationships: Building strong, meaningful connections, particularly with her husband and neighborhood community, has been an essential part of her healing and growth in midlife.
Wellness and Mental Health: Jenn emphasized the importance of physical wellness, especially exercise, and maintaining mental health through daily routines like limiting social media use and staying grounded.
