Back to Episodes#292: She Never Left - How to Find Your Way Back to Yourself in Midlife Transitions, with Marie Crews
Description
Have you ever sensed that the woman you truly are is still in there, but life has made her harder to hear?
When you are moving through a life transition, whether it arrives through grief, divorce, perimenopause, career change, or years of putting everyone else first, finding your way back to yourself can feel like the hardest part. This episode offers a grounding, hopeful path forward - one that starts not with a dramatic overhaul, but with a single honest question and a willingness to listen.
This conversation with grief guide, life coach, and author Marie Crews draws on her lived experience navigating profound loss, divorce, perimenopause, and reinvention. She shares the practical tools and inner shifts that helped her - and the women she works with - reconnect with who they really are and move forward with clarity and self-trust.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- How journaling opens a doorway to the self-knowledge and career clarity already inside you, even when you feel too lost or uncertain to know where to begin
- Why asking "what else could be true?" is one of the most powerful questions you can use to loosen old stories and create room for a more aligned next chapter
- How the practice of whispering yourself home - a simple, quiet act of self-trust - can carry you through any life transition, one breath at a time
Press play to hear an honest, warm conversation about coming home to yourself - and why the woman you are looking for never actually left.
