Midlife Unleashed

Welcome back to another episode of "Midlife Unleashed"! Today, we’re tackling something everyone faces eventually, falling off your healthy routine. Whether it’s coming back from vacation, surviving a stressful work sprint, managing family emergencies, or just dealing with the ups and downs of life, slipping off track is inevitable. But don’t worry, it’s not about never failing, it’s about how you bounce back!

In this episode, Doug Dorsey, shares practical, no-nonsense advice on how to get back into your groove without guilt, shame, or overwhelm, especially in midlife, when the pressure to “have it all together” is real. Doug breaks down why slipping up is normal, why quick recoveries are a learnable skill (not luck!), and how to build confidence with small, manageable changes instead of going all or nothing.
