The Midlife Edit

The Midlife Filter: What I’m No Longer Apologizing For

Jen Weinstein Season 1 Episode 16

Episode Summary:

In this solo episode, we’re flipping the script on guilt and embracing the unapologetic power of midlife. I’m sharing the raw, real truth about the things I used to feel bad for — and why I’m done saying “sorry” for who I am, what I want, and how I live.

From saying no without over-explaining to owning your need for rest, this episode is all about giving yourself permission to evolve out loud. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to shrink, please, or perform, this is your sign to stop apologizing and start owning your space.

What You’ll Hear:

  • Why midlife is the perfect time to let go of people-pleasing
  • My personal “no-more-apologies” list — and why each one matters
  • How this mindset shift can change your health, confidence, and clarity
  • A journal prompt to help you release guilt and rewrite your story
  • An invitation to share your own list with me for a future episode!

💌 Journal Prompt:

What are you no longer apologizing for — and what freedom does that give you?
