Episode 12 - Crossroads of the Mind: On Midlife, Comfort, and Challenge
Crossroads of the Mind: On Midlife, Comfort, and Challenge
At some point, many of us reach a place where life looks stable on the outside — yet something stirs within. In this episode, I reflect on a candid dinner conversation that held up a mirror to my own journey: the need to feel challenged, to grow, to be seen and pushed beyond comfort.
Is it a midlife crisis — or a wake-up call?
We explore what it means to stand at a mental and emotional crossroads, where routine meets restlessness and the search for meaning becomes louder than the pull of stability.
If you’ve ever felt the quiet discontent of “having enough but wanting more,” this one is for you.
🎧 Tune in and walk with me — literally and figuratively.
