Rewrite the Rules: Midlife Reboot Bundle

Speaker: 00:00:00

Welcome to the Unfolding podcast.

2

: 00:00:02

I am Erica Voell.

3

: 00:00:03

I am a Decision Mentor and

Inner-Trust Guide, and I work with

4

: 00:00:07

women mainly those in midlife.

5

: 00:00:08

Trust their inner guidance, understand

their unique strengths, and stop

6

: 00:00:12

saying yes to what drains them Using

Human Design coaching and Reiki, we

7

: 00:00:17

clear the noise so their no feels

powerful and their yes feels true.

8

: 00:00:22

When I originally created this

podcast, I created it as a space

9

: 00:00:26

to talk about the truths of midlife

identity and really evolving into

10

: 00:00:31

becoming more of our true selves.

11

: 00:00:33

And today's episode is

really special because.

12

: 00:00:36

I finally get to share something that I

have poured months of energy, intention,

13

: 00:00:41

and love into, and I am so excited

to finally be able to share this.

14

: 00:00:46

It is a completely free collection

called The Rewrite the Rules,

15

: 00:00:51

a midlife Reboot bundle.

16

: 00:00:53

So why did I focus on midlife for women?

17

: 00:00:58

Because we've been taught for so

long that midlife is a crisis.

18

: 00:01:03

It is not a crisis.

19

: 00:01:05

I know some people go through these

shifts where they feel like their life

20

: 00:01:09

is a crisis, and we have these moments.

21

: 00:01:13

In our mid forties where we're

like, is this all there is?

22

: 00:01:17

But it's really a shift into becoming

more of our wise, true selves.

23

: 00:01:22

It's a time when we finally stopped

measuring our value by how useful

24

: 00:01:27

we are or how agreeable we are to

everyone else, and in the moment

25

: 00:01:32

we realize that our mothers.

26

: 00:01:35

Whispered about menopause and midlife,

and we are so done whispering.

27

: 00:01:41

This is where I am so grateful for

some of the celebrities that have

28

: 00:01:45

brought this up and into the forefront

because we need to be talking about it.

29

: 00:01:49

We need to stop whispering in corners

and midlife is when we start asking like,

30

: 00:01:56

what is the next season going to be like?

31

: 00:01:59

What gets to be more true for me?

32

: 00:02:02

And how can I be more of my true self?

33

: 00:02:05

So why did I create the

rewrite, the Rules Bundle?

34

: 00:02:09

This is for women who are like me

and women like you, and women who

35

: 00:02:12

have spent decades doing what we

thought we were supposed to do.

36

: 00:02:17

Buying into the bill of goods.

37

: 00:02:18

That has turned out to be bullshit.

38

: 00:02:21

We've built careers, we're raising

families, we're caregiving, we're

39

: 00:02:25

managing households, and we're

being everything to everyone.

40

: 00:02:30

And somewhere along the way

we lost touch with ourselves.

41

: 00:02:35

I know this so intimately because I

spent years shape shifting, trying

42

: 00:02:40

to be who I thought I should be.

43

: 00:02:42

I changed jobs, I changed directions.

44

: 00:02:46

I tried to fit into a mold that never fit.

45

: 00:02:49

And no matter how hard I worked, I

still felt like I was falling short.

46

: 00:02:53

I felt like I was failing.

47

: 00:02:54

I wasn't enough.

48

: 00:02:57

But everything changed

when I found Human Design.

49

: 00:02:59

And you can go back to other

episodes and listen to more

50

: 00:03:02

about my story with Human Design.

51

: 00:03:04

But with Human Design, I started to trust

my body and I stopped over functioning as

52

: 00:03:09

a way of like trying to prove my worth.

53

: 00:03:12

So what I have done in this bundle is

I have pulled together a community of

54

: 00:03:16

experts, of 20 brilliant women offering

free resources to help you do the same.

55

: 00:03:22

This bundle is about validation

and clarity and relief,

56

: 00:03:26

and remembering yourself.

57

: 00:03:29

And for every person who signs up

to opt into the bundle, my company

58

: 00:03:34

is donating $1 split between two

organizations that matter so deeply to me.

59

: 00:03:40

The Menopause Society, which is helping

lead the conversation on improving care

60

: 00:03:46

and access for women in midlife life,

really providing a lot of information

61

: 00:03:52

about menopause and perimenopause.

62

: 00:03:55

To doctors and providers, and the other

organization is the KC Care Health Center.

63

: 00:04:02

This is a Kansas City based

nonprofit that provides high quality

64

: 00:04:06

healthcare to women and people

who otherwise could not afford it.

65

: 00:04:11

And healthcare is deeply personal to me.

66

: 00:04:15

I have had health issues much of

my adult life, but when it really

67

: 00:04:20

affected me most is before Obamacare.

68

: 00:04:23

In the mid nineties, I could

not get health insurance.

69

: 00:04:27

I had a preexisting condition that

stopped me from being able to access

70

: 00:04:32

healthcare in the way that I really needed

I didn't always get the preventative

71

: 00:04:36

care that I needed because I knew

that I most likely would not be able

72

: 00:04:41

to afford it, so I put things off.

73

: 00:04:43

It was a very long five years.

74

: 00:04:47

And then last year after I turned

50, I joined a perimenopause book

75

: 00:04:53

group and it was so informative and

I was shocked to learn how under

76

: 00:04:59

researched and poorly understood

this stage of life is even in: 2025

77

: 00:05:06

Women as a whole are under researched, but

women in midlife are even less represented

78

: 00:05:14

because in medical school, only 20%

of the education that OBGYNs receive

79

: 00:05:22

is about perimenopause and midlife.

80

: 00:05:26

There's so much focus on delivering

babies and pregnant women that they

81

: 00:05:31

don't even think about the fact that

half of the population is dealing

82

: 00:05:36

with perimenopause and post-menopause.

83

: 00:05:40

There's so little information

for doctors and for us as women,

84

: 00:05:45

the information is so scattered.

85

: 00:05:47

It's confusing, it's full of gaps.

86

: 00:05:50

There's so much stuff online that

is actually not even true, and

87

: 00:05:56

there are symptoms that maybe

don't, aren't fully understood.

88

: 00:05:59

Like I never could understand why.

89

: 00:06:01

Some days I can see well, and

other days I can't see well.

90

: 00:06:04

And then I went to my optometrist and

she said, yeah, welcome to perimenopause.

91

: 00:06:10

Your eyes are gonna change daily.

92

: 00:06:13

And then I found out that I

have morning plantar fasciitis.

93

: 00:06:17

I can't get out of bed sometimes,

not because I don't wanna get

94

: 00:06:20

outta bed, but because I get

up and my feet are just like.

95

: 00:06:23

Oh, I don't wanna move.

96

: 00:06:25

I learned about this from my massage

therapist and from this book group,

97

: 00:06:30

and my massage therapist actually

gave me a tool to use to help me

98

: 00:06:36

be able to get out of bed without

feeling like I'm going to fall over.

99

: 00:06:39

And unless you have the right

provider and a lot of time and

100

: 00:06:43

money, you're probably often left

to figure this all out on your own.

101

: 00:06:49

And to this, I say I'm so grateful

again to those who are bringing

102

: 00:06:53

perimenopause into the forefront.

103

: 00:06:56

Thank goodness.

104

: 00:06:57

For Oprah and Drew Barrymore and the other

celebrities who are stepping forward,

105

: 00:07:02

Glennon Doyle and talking about this.

106

: 00:07:05

I have, as I have been researching for

this bundle, finding people to contribute.

107

: 00:07:12

I have had more and more accounts pop

up on my Instagram feed and they are

108

: 00:07:16

hilarious because they are so true.

109
