Today on Feminine Roadmap: Finding your midlife passion with Mary K. Savarese. Mary shares how finding her passion in writing fiction literally saved her life and helped her heal. She is on a mission to inspire other women in midlife to stop procrastinating in finding a hobby that brings them joy. In her books she blends fantasy, romance and history to create a world where readers can escape the real world and get lost in the world of her characters. Writing for her was a path to wholeness and healing, giving her life direction, focus and a place to find joy. When she came to the crossroads of midlife she realized that connecting to what was in her heart, what brought her joy was going to be the key to her next season. Her encouragement to listeners is to take the time to become present to what it is that lights you up, what you’re drawn to and what brings you joy. Start slowly and experiment with things, figure out what parts of that you like and what you don’t. One important step is to be open to the outcome possibly being just for the joy of it. Mary touches on how we have spent a lifetime of service and accomplishing tasks begins to transition as we are in midlife. That transition from all the doing for others to connecting with yourself can be adventure if we lean in. Curiosity, courage and a willingness to take a posture of being a learner go a long way in helping find your midlife passion. For some, it’s an obvious thing while for others it’s more of a treasure hunt. No matter where you find yourself on your midlife journey, this conversation will spark inspiration. If you or a friend need a hit of “yes you can so just go for it” then this episode is for you! Grab a cuppa something wonderful and join us.
