Welcome Back My Distracted Passengers:

Usually I am incredibly productive. And organized.

Usually I am able to work through my To Do lists and get shit done. It’s one of my super powers.

But lately, my attention span has been about a nanosecond and everything is a challenge.

I am not motivated to do much of anything of import.

I am doomscrolling through Twitter and checking the headlines every few minutes it seems.

I can easily waste an hour on TikTok (allthough I am getting some good ideas for the characters in the book I am writing).

I am getting through most of my daily habits in my Silk +Sonder habit tracker (both the monthly and the weekly) but the other work that requires more than 10–15 minutes of my time or doesn’t provide me with almost instantaneous positive feedback (or the ability to cross something off a list) doesn’t seem to be getting done as easily or at all.

It’s crazy. It’s frustrating. It’s not working for me right now.

Any chance you are experiencing anything like this?

How are you handling it? Are you resisting it and powering through? Are you giving yourself grace?

YouTube: Do You Feel Alone? (Midlife is an opportunity, not a crisis)
Tuesday’s video was inspired by a conversation I had with three women on Saturday on Clubhouse in the virtual co-working room. Midlife Madness + Piloting Your Life + Women and Power = ?

YouTube: Under Pressure and Applying Pressure (events of the week)
Oh boy was I riled up when I recorded Saturday’s video. I still am. We can’t sit idly by. What is happening is not acceptable. What are you doing it about it?

What’s my challenge for you today? Check in with yourself. Find some ease. Be gentle. Acknowledge the craziness we are experiencing. This is not normal.

With much love and gratitude,

Terri

P.S. Take the controls and be the pilot in your own life. It’s a beautiful day to fly, and you are cleared for takeoff.
