Summary

In this episode of The Purpose Show, I’m chatting with Jen Lawrence about how women can reclaim their identity and prioritize self-care, especially as they navigate midlife. Jen shares powerful insights from her upcoming book, The Selfish Season, and we talk about why it’s so important to let go of societal pressures and focus on building your self-worth. We dive into setting boundaries, embracing self-discovery over seeking external validation, and handling challenges in dating and the workplace. Jen and I also discuss how parenting evolves as your kids grow, and why emotional resilience and joy are key to thriving. This episode is all about embracing who you truly are, practicing self-love, and living authentically.

Jen Lawrence is the Co-Founder of Selfish Company Inc. She's a Certified Master Life Coach, Certified Career and Business Coach, and a member of the International Coach Federation, specializing in helping midlife women get unstuck and create a life they love. She teaches The Art & Science of Success course at the University of Toronto. She’s the co-author of The Selfish Season and is building a community for positive, motivated midlife women seeking to finally put themselves at the top of the to-do list and build happier and more empowered lives.
