Episode 45: Letters from Midlife: When You Feel Lonely in the Life You've Built
Description
In this episode of Letters from Midlife, I respond to a letter from a listener who writes, “Lately, I feel lonely, even though I’m not alone. I have people around me, but I feel unseen.”
It’s one of the quiet heartbreaks of midlife, realising that even a life you’ve lovingly built can start to feel a little empty when you’ve outgrown the connections within it. Together, we explore the difference between being surrounded and being seen, and what it means to rebuild authentic connection in this new chapter.
I share gentle reflections and grounded ways to begin again, from creating connection rituals and reaching out bravely, to nurturing the most important relationship of all: the one with yourself. Because loneliness isn’t a failure; it’s feedback from your soul, asking for deeper resonance.
