Have you ever looked at the life you’ve built and realized that the version of you who created it isn’t the same woman you are today?
As we move through different seasons of life, our bodies, families, careers, and priorities change with us. What once felt manageable can suddenly feel overwhelming, and responsibilities we’ve carried for years may no longer belong on our plate. Giving yourself permission to evolve doesn’t erase everything you’ve accomplished. Sometimes, it simply means recognizing that it’s time to make room for what comes next.
Tune in to this new episode of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, as Jackie and Marisela have an honest conversation about navigating midlife, changing identities, and the responsibilities women carry through different seasons of life. They explore what it means to parent children who are becoming adults while preparing to care for aging parents, the importance of planning for the future, and the cultural expectations that can make asking for help or putting down responsibilities feel like weakness. Jackie and Marisela also reflect on listening to your body, recognizing when something in your life needs to change, leaning on the people around you, and allowing yourself to pursue a new chapter without viewing the one before it as a failure.
