Feel like your life is getting smaller and smaller? Watch out for these

Your 50s can be an incredible decade—but they can also become a time when life quietly starts getting smaller if you're not paying attention. At 56, I've been thinking a lot about the assumptions I'm carrying into this stage of life and the habits I don't want to accidentally bring with me into my 60s, 70s and beyond. In this video, I'm sharing five things I'm watching out for in my own life—from becoming overly focused on retirement and choosing comfort too often, to assuming the biggest milestones are behind me or putting off things I still want to do physically. This isn't about panicking about getting older. Quite the opposite. It's about remembering that the life you're living right now matters just as much as the future you're planning for. I'd also love to hear from those of you in your 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond: What have you learned about getting older? What would you tell someone coming up behind you to watch out for? #Over50 #Midlife #Retirement #LifeAfter50 #WomenOver50 #HealthyAging #MidlifeWomen #RetirementPlanning
