    Midlife: balanced, miraculous

    Most of us associate the word "midlife" with the word "crisis". But Marianne Williamson has a 'new and improved' way of looking at it in her latest book, "The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife".

    As you'll hear in her interview with Liz Sterling on this Sunday's edition of Be You Radio on LITE FM, midlife doesn't have to be an endpoint where joyous experiences are a thing of the past, only to be looked back on. Rather, it's a new beginning, an opportunity to re-shape your life and seek out your dreams with the wisdom you can only gain from living the years leading up to this point.

    Everyone has their own experience of midlife, and it can be at any age (hey, I had my first mid-life crisis when I was 20!). Just remember, one can be mentally old when they're chronologically young, and vice versa. It's your state of mind that determines how old - or young - you feel and act.

    Join me, Liz, Maria Soldani and Susie Levan for the Lite Review on Be You Radio this Sunday morning at 6, in conjunction with the Work-Life Balance Institute for Women and Balance Magazine.

    Also, be sure to register for this week's LITE FM Office Stress Break to win your spot on the LITE FM guest list for the 4th Annual Work-Life Balance Educational Conference for Women, April 23rd, with keynote speakers Naomi Judd, Janet Bray Attwood and Bonnie St. John. It's going to be a fantastic day to Be Empowered, Be Inspired and Be Connected. I'll see you there!
