Show Summary:

In this week's episode of Midlife by (Human) Design, Lori dives into Wicked: For Good and unpacks why the story of Glinda and Elphaba hits differently in midlife--especially when you're shedding the "good girl" conditioning and stepping into your truth.

Drawing on decades of love for the book, musical, and now film, Lori explores how both witches are powerful mirrors for the midlife awakening: Glinda as the archetypal pleaser conditioned to fit in, and Elphaba as the intuitive truth-teller who refuses to shrink.

Lori weaves Human Design through both character arcs—from undefined centers driving people-pleasing to channels of power, identity, and intuition—showing how Wicked brilliantly mirrors the real process of deconditioning.

Takeaways:
✨ Why midlife is the moment you stop smoothing your edges
✨ The "Defying Gravity" moment in midlife
✨ How deconditioning can look through the lens of both characters
✨ The one thing awakening always requires
✨ How to use your inner authority as your broomstick (yes, really)
