In this episode of Obsessed, we talk all things, hormones, aging, pregnancy, and everything in between. We are continually inspired by the works of our favorite researcher and badass Brene Brown. Author and researcher Brene Brown writes, “We associate vulnerability with emotions that we want to avoid such as fear, shame, and uncertainty, yet we often lose sight of the fact that vulnerability is also the birthplace of joy, belonging, creativity, authenticity, and love.” At 55, Neeahtima Dowdy realized it’s still possible to reinvent herself into the woman of her dreams. And she shares how we can still be confident, fabulous, and powerful regardless of our age in this episode. Midlife is often viewed as a time when women hit a crossroads. They may start to feel invisible; they are losing their marketable quality, relationships, and professional aspirations.But more and more women like Neeahtima are choosing to buck the midlife stereotypes and embrace this stage of life. Whether by starting their own businesses, traveling the world, or simply enjoying newfound hobbies and passions, more and more women are redefining what it means to be in this stage of life. There’s no one right way to approach aging, but women are doing it their way and rocking it. From making lifestyle changes to improving self-confidence, Neeahtima proves that there is no age limit on happiness or success – and she continues to inspire others to do the same. She talks about how she’s thriving in midlife and gives valuable pieces of advice for those who may be feeling stuck.Neeahtima is the creator and host of We’re Not Dead Yet: Women Rocking their Next Chapter, a YouTube series where she inspires women over 40, 50, 60, and beyond to step out of their comfort zone and reinvent themselves, discover new talents, or find their passion.What You Will Learn From This Episode02:02 - Period, hormones, and pregnancy 04:12 - Not letting age become a hindrance in achieving your goals 07:31 - Starting a YouTube channel to inspire women to live their best lives 12:13 - Women who are still rocking in their 50s14:04 - Changing the age narrative and battling our inner demons19:47 - Taking care of our midlife selves24:47 - Being loud and proud with menopause26:14 - Embracing every stage of our lives while not being complacentResources MentionedThe Invisible Woman Syndrome : Aging & Irrelevance by Julie Lokun - https://www.julielokuncoaching.com/post/the-invisible-woman-syndrome-aging-irrelevance Connect with Neeahtima DowdyYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnIrTEfqQDeBXn28AMlNpGg Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/neeahtima_dowdy/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WomenrockingnextchapterLinktree: https://linktr.ee/WerenotdeadyetwomenSee What Your Obsessed Girls Are Doing and Send Us Feedback!CROWN AND COMPASS | Linktree - https://linktr.ee/crownandcompassgirls Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
