A Meaningful and Connected Midlife with Natalie Yan-Chatonsky
As we inch closer to 100 episodes, I have to pinch myself that I get to speak to amazing guests such as Natalie Yan-Chatonsky. Natalie is the author of 'The Art of Full Time Living', a book for midlife women to design a meaningful and connected life. She collaborates with visionary leaders to design experiences and services that support women through midlife transitions. This episode features conversations around:
Social connections and how essential they are for our vitality in midlife.
What is meaningful retirement?
How can we transition well into this phase of life?
The sandwich generation.
Balancing elder care, careers, and the complexity and challenges that it brings.
Natalie draws inspiration from various sources, including older women like her aunt, an Oscar-winning documentary maker who has always believed in Natalie's creative talents.
How the Australian Senate inquiry into perimenopause and menopause emphasised the need for systemic changes.
As Natalie continues to inspire and advocate for midlife women, she encourages us to prioritise social connections and embrace open conversations about different life stages.
