Is Mid-Life Really a Crisis? By Noelle Gavitt
How many times have you heard the expression mid-life cri-
sis? My bet is, quite often. Especially if you are in this stage of life yourself. Here is the first thing I saw when I looked up mid-life crisis: an emotional crisis of identity and self-confidence that can
occur in early middle age. Let’s think about this for a minute…aren’t there other times in
life when we struggle with our identity and self-confidence? Do you ever hear the termearly life crisis? Or old age crisis? I haven’t. Why do you think that might be? Most likely because of the limiting beliefs people have creat-
ed around where they should be
inmid-life.You are not expected to be that accomplished when you are younger, your life is just begin- ning.And by the time you are older, you are often retired and enjoy- ing life, and what you have accomplished. What is a limiting belief anyway? A limiting belief is something that you have accepted about
your life, yourself or the world that limits you in some way based on something you heard or were told at some point. It’s become true for you, however it’s not really the truth. Where do these limiting beliefs come from? They come from different places. Society for one. Maybe our
friends, our partner, our parents or even the media. Often times, they become engrained in us from the time we are young. We can begin to feel frustrated, striving to live up to these
beliefs. When we come to realize in mid-life that perhaps we haven’t accomplishedwhat those beliefs told uswe should have,we can become hard on ourselves.Wondering, why amI not where I’m supposed to be at this point in my life? Create a state of crisis. So here are some questions for you to consider…. 1.Where did that belief come from? 2. How has it affected you in your life up until now? 3. How would your life look different if you could change that
belief? 4.What new belief would you like to have? If you are willing to take the time to explore the answers to
these questions and create a new belief for yourself about mid-life, amazing things can begin to happen. Mid-life is a time where life is changing. Change, as well as
getting older, are inevitable. Maybe you were a stay at home mom who is dealing with an
empty nest and not sure what to do next. Your identity has been wrapped up in that and now you feel lost. Maybe you have been working in a career to help support your
family that you don’t truly love. Perhaps you are in a relationship that you’ve been staying in,
but you aren’t truly happy. Instead of looking at mid-life as a crisis, how would it be to
look at it instead as a time of transition and opportunity? How would it feel to be empowered and in control of your life?

www.doreenmolloy.com If you truly want to make
some shifts and changes in your life, there are again some ques- tions you will need to ask yourself and decisions that will have to be made. Sometimes we are forced to
make a change for one reason or another. But often times it comes down to deciding ifwe are ready to. Here are five questions to ask
yourself around change: 1. What is it that I’m getting out of this? (situation, way of
thinking, job, relationship, etc.) 2. Do I like what it is that I’m getting? 3. If not, what do I want instead? (If you like what you are get-
ting then no change is needed) 4.What realistic changes would I have to make in order to get
what I want? 5. Am I willing to make those changes at this time? These will be important things to explore for yourself if, or
when, you are ready to begin to implement change. Another important thing to remember is that your past does not
have to define you.We are human, we all make mistakes. Life is a journey of learning and growing.We are going to stumble and fall from time to time. As the saying goes, it’s not how many times you’ve fallen down. It’s how many times you’ve gotten back up. Just because your life has gone a certain way up until this
point, that doesn’t automatically mean that is how it has to stay. Holding on to the past is only a barrier to moving forward. It can keep us in a victim mentality. When you can begin to realize the lessons life has taught you
(and will continue to) and begin to let go of what isn’t working for you, it can make room for things to come into your life that are more in line with what you do want. If you are finding the same scenarios repeating in your life
over and over again – most likely it’s because you haven’t learned the lesson you were meant to learn just yet. A person or a situation will keep showing up until you are ready to learn what it is that you are meant to. Mid-life is a wonderful time where we can truly examine all
we have been through. A time to grow and flourish. An opportuni- ty to look within and create the life we want for ourselves, as well as begin to accept who we are in this moment. This moment is all we have. The past is gone and cannot be
changed. The future is not yet known. Who do you want to be – right here, right now? It’s your
choice. Noelle Gavitt is a Certified Professional Coach who special-
izes in working with women in mid-life. By examining what your values are, exploring all aspects of yourself (mind, body and spirit) and learning to release the past, she will help you create clarity around this next chapter of your life.
