And there's tips on how to do that in this book anyway already.

Yeah.

And I think also at midlife, there's lots of things that were working for you that maybe don't work for you anymore.

Right.

And whether that's drinking or, you know, it could be anything.

And that you're not, like, it's not working for a lot of us at midlife.

Yes.

And so you're not alone.

And I think that's where finding a community of people can be really helpful.

But I think that the thing that I've been...

struggling with a lot and you know midlife is this idea that I am more than just what I do I'm a person in the world and

I'm of value and worth regardless of my career or how much money I make or how big my flat is or my house is.

Like I have value as a person.

I think this is a thing.

That's a huge thing.

And I think it's a really, really big thing.

part because, you know, I've been really struggling with it because there's so much that I do want to do.

And in order to make time for those things, I have to begin again and start all over again.

And I have to let go of an identity that has kept me very safe for a long time.

I knew who I was doing that thing that I was really good at.
