Sara Poldmae

The changes and transitions of midlife can really do a number on your sense of self. 


I’ve called in reinforcements to help me unpack what happens to your sense of self in midlife and how to rebuild it. 


Lisa Maholchic and Marna Brickman are therapists practicing in Annapolis, Maryland, at Guiding Therapy and they’re here to share their tips and tools for creating a firm foundation from which to navigate the many twists and turns of midlife. We’re talking about why it’s so important for women to have a strong sense of self during the transitions of midlife and what to do if you feel like you’re lacking that sense of self. 


Topics covered in this episode include:

  • What it means to have a strong sense of self 
  • How to identify your wants and needs 
  • The importance of finding and using your support system 
  • Tips for finding the right therapist for you


Maybe you’ve never felt like you had a strong sense of self and you’re ready for that to change, or maybe the recent changes in your life have shaken up your sense of identity and you’re reevaluating what’s important to you. Whatever your journey looks like, we want to help!
