What Does Happiness Look Like in Midlife? with Gretchen Rubin
Midlife can do a number on your happiness. It’s a time when your kids are grown, your identity is shifting, and the roles that defined you for so long just don't fit anymore. Bestselling author and podcaster Gretchen Rubin has studied happiness for years and talks with Reshma about burnout, discipline, and whether the habits and goals that used to work for you still serve you. Plus, they get into Gretchen’s “four tendencies” personality framework, which are an incredibly helpful lens in understanding how we move through midlife. Follow Gretchen @gretchenrubin on Instagram.
