Feeling like you’re already “behind” on fall and it’s not even September? Mid-August has a way of mixing back-to-school chaos with that nagging pressure to overhaul your entire life overnight. But here’s the truth: in midlife, big overhauls lead to burnout.
In this episode of Smash the Crash, host Melissa Hinman shares why the all-or-nothing approach doesn’t work for high-capacity midlife women, and what to do instead. You’ll learn the SMASH framework (in a no-pressure, lite version) and how to build your own Power Plan: a simple, personalized roadmap to refuel your energy, reset your rhythms, and move into fall with clarity and ease.
