Midlife Strategies for Badass Women

What if midlife wasn’t something to survive—but the perfect time to reset, reclaim, and remember who the hell you are?

Welcome to Episode 1 of the Midlife Reclamation: Summer Reset Series on Midlife Strategies for Badass Women! In this solo kickoff, head badass midlife strategist Sue Willoughby invites you to shake off the “shoulds,” bust a few myths, and start reconnecting with what actually lights you up.

Through childhood stories, horse wisdom, and a little tough love, Sue challenges you to stop waiting for someday and take one small, joy-filled step toward reclaiming your midlife—starting this week.

🔥 In this episode:

• Why midlife is not a crisis—it’s a calling
  
  
• Three myths that are holding you back from feeling fulfilled
  
  
• Why reinvention is not selfish—it’s sacred
  
  
• How to reconnect with your inner badass through micro-actions
  
  
• A weekly challenge to reclaim what you’ve put on the back burner
  
  

Whether you’ve been feeling stuck, soul-tired, or just in need of a good summer reset, this episode is your permission slip to get messy, get real, and get back on the damn water skis.
