Midlife can feel confusing, even when life looks good from the outside. Careers change, relationships shift, and the way we see ourselves starts to evolve, leaving many people feeling stuck in between what was and what’s next.
In this episode, Kari Cardinale, Chief Content Officer and partner at Modern Elder Academy, explains why these moments aren’t breakdowns but transitions, and why learning to navigate them is an essential life skill. Through her work on Transitional Intelligence, Kari shares what’s really happening during midlife change and how to move through it with greater clarity and confidence.
You’ll learn:
• Why most midlife “crises” are actually misunderstood transitions
• The three stages of change: endings, the messy middle, and new beginnings
• Why the messy middle feels so hard — and why it matters
• How rituals, community, and small “glimmers” guide what comes next
If you’re feeling stuck or sensing a shift in your life, this episode will help you understand where you are and how to move forward.
