If you’re feeling like you’re behind in some area of your life, today’s episode is a must-listen.
Mel is directly addressing one of the most requested topics of all time: when you don’t feel like you’re on the “right timeline” compared to everyone else around you.
By the time you finish listening, the way you view your entire life will change.
In this episode, Mel goes decade by decade, and speaks to the pressures that people face in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and even 80s and 90s.
She will hit, head on, the “invisible checklist” and myths that are making you feel stressed out and behind in life.
If you’ve ever felt like you should…
-Have your career figured out by now
-Have already met the love of your life
-Have more money in the bank
-Own a home
-Find a life partner if you want to have kids
-Be less stressed and happier
-Have found purpose and meaning
-Be ready to retire
-Found your lifelong friends
Today’s episode is for you.
Mel is going to liberate you from the expectations of society, your family, your friends, and even the ones you’re putting on yourself. She has the facts, the science, the psychology, and thousands of listener comments to back everything up.
This is an episode you do not want to miss, and that you’ll want to share with everyone you love.
