Welcome to Under the Rug at Work, where we shine light on the issues that are often swept under the rug. In this episode, host Nicole Turnbull sits down with Frances Scadden , a Women's Empowerment Coach, Speaker and Mentor, to explore Midlife Work Woes.  

Frances challenges the conventional notion of a midlife crisis by reframing it as a midlife awakening - an invitation to reassess your life, break free from self-doubt and rediscover your true purpose. 

In our conversation, we dive into the challenges many women face during career transitions, including feeling lost, overwhelmed and constrained by societal expectations. 

Frances shares her personal journey from the corporate world to empowering women through coaching and reveals practical strategies for managing emotions, setting micro-goals and building a supportive work culture.

In this episode we discuss: 

• Transforming a midlife crisis into an empowering awakening

• Overcoming the guilt and anxiety of wanting more for yourself

• Practical tips to reignite passion and create momentum

• The importance of nurturing and mentorship in the workplace.

If you're experiencing uncertainty or feeling stuck in your career, this episode offers valuable insights and actionable advice to help you navigate midlife transitions with confidence. Discover how embracing change and fostering self-compassion can lead to a more fulfilling work and life experience.
