Midlife, But Make It Intentional: Confidence, Tiny Habits & Redesigning Your Life w/ Julie DeLucca-Collins
What if “midlife” isn’t a crisis—but a call to redesign your life with intention? 🦋
Jodi sits down with TEDx speaker and confidence coach Julie DeLucca-Collins (Go Confidently Coaching, host of Casa de Confidencia) to talk tiny habits, breaking burnout, and building a business—and a life—that actually feels as good as it looks.
Julie shares mindset shifts, practical routines, and two powerful client stories (from holiday side-hustle to boxed product line, and from solo trainer to thriving private gym) to prove that consistent, intentional action changes everything.
