Show Notes

Aging is an opportunity for expansion - not a decline.

In this episode, Lisa discusses how "midlife malaise"—anxiety, low libido, and burnout—signals a need for introspection and change.  She focuses on the shift from Grihastha (householder) to Vanaprastha (forest dweller) and how to embrace the beautiful transition between them.

Join her on this empowering journey of self-discovery.
