FLIPSIDE OF MIDLIFE® with Karli Newman
Hi there! I'm Karli Newman, and this is my podcast, FLIPSIDE OF MIDLIFE®.
In my mid-40s, my positive mindset was tested. I felt life was passing me by. I was restless in my career even though I loved my job, and exhausted after years of ignoring my self-care. PLUS the hormonal shifts of perimenopause were affecting me in ways I didn't know or understand.
Externally I maintained a positive attitude. Internally I struggled with changing my life’s direction. I didn't talk about it and it took me years to work through it.
Over time I took some big leaps, including a move back to Arizona. I created a new approach to my life and maximized my innate positivity. That’s how I ended up here - helping women like you tap into your positive mindset and inner expertise to see and seize the possibilities around you. I don’t want you to do this alone!
I’m a certified coach focused on whole-life wellness. I know from personal experience what a transformational time of life this is and how challenging it feels sometimes! I’m here to help you navigate obstacles, uncover how to move forward, and continue your unique journey of personal growth and self-discovery.
I intentionally create short episodes that fit into your busy life and get you thinking about your well-being. I cover topics that the women in this community care about (that's you BTW!).
Wherever you are in midlife and beyond, there’s space here to honor who you’ve been, love who you are, and be excited about who you are becoming.
This is the FLIPSIDE OF MIDLIFE® and it's a glorious place to be!
Go ahead...binge all of my episodes. xo Karli

This month we've been exploring abundance. First, noticing it within and around us, then appreciating it. Today we're learning how to intentionally attract more of it into our lives. In this episode, I share a four step framework to help you align your thoughts, energy, and actions, so abundance flows more freely through every part of your life. Keep listening and we'll walk through it together. Thank you for joining me for this episode of FLIPSIDE OF MIDLIFE®. I'm Karli Newman, your favorite Gen X dealer of Positive Vibes, Life and Wellness Coach, and Community builder for women in midlife and beyond. Have you heard of my ELEVATE membership? It's my private community for women in midlife and beyond who want to nurture their wellbeing, connect with other women, and tap into their innate expertise. Because yes, my friend, you are an expert on you. I provide tools members can use to stretch their comfort zones, and there's a monthly life coaching conversation where members can ask me questions and support and celebrate one another. It really is a beautiful thing. You can learn more about ELEVATE at the link in the show notes and transcript. Okay, let's dive into this framework, shall we? Here are four steps you can take to align your thoughts, energy, and actions with abundance. Step one, set your intention. If you want to be intentional about your abundance, it's helpful to set an intention. Pick a time that works for you in the morning. Whether it's before you get out of bed or over that cup of coffee or when you're in the shower, decide on the abundance you want to invite into your life that day. Maybe it's peace, creativity, connection, opportunities. Say it out loud, write it down, if that's helpful for you. Set your intention for the day every morning, and then you can move on to step two, which is feeling. Our thoughts start the process, but feeling abundance in our body helps to create the energy that brings abundance into our lives. If you picked an intention of creating joyful abundance that day, what does that feel like? How does an abundance of joy feel in your body? What is happening with your heart rate, your breath, your facial expression, the muscles in your body? How are you moving? How are you flowing through the day? This is how you feel the abundance. It's all about noticing how it feels when that type of abundance has come to you already. Step three is about taking actions that align with the intention you set that day. These might not be actions that you are predetermining, although they could be, but it might entail making a choice during the day. Will it be this or will it be that? Which one is more truly aligned with the intention you set that morning. And these can be teeny tiny, my friend. There's many small actions that lead up to a larger one. So for example, if you set an intention in the morning of wanting to foster more abundant creativity in your day, and you have sat with those feelings and what that feels like when you go through your day, you will be more aware of how to act in alignment with that. So maybe it's opening your journal, maybe it's pulling out your colored markers and pens, so they're sitting in front of you. Maybe it is an opportunity to sign up for an art class or another creative activity that's been on your mind, or that just comes into your view that day. Aligned action is a very important step in this framework. The fourth step after you take aligned action is to stay open. And really this flows throughout the framework. But abundance often shows up in surprising ways, ways that we haven't imagined or expected. When you remain open to abundance in this way, you will notice those opportunities. You will notice those signs and those possibilities that might look very different from what you had pictured. Trust, my friend. This openness is trust. Trust in the universe. Trust in yourself that what's meant for you is coming your way. And keeping an open heart and an open mind so that you notice when they do come your way. So that's the four step framework, my friend. You are setting an intention. You are feeling what that abundance feels like within you. You are taking aligned action that helps you foster that intention. And you're staying open. That openness helps you see those opportunities and abundant vibes more easily. When you set your intention and you feel the feelings, you're taking aligned action and you stay open, you are creating that energy flow, a consistent flow that allows abundance to come into your life and flow back out and flow back into your life and flow back out. It feels natural. It feels easy. It's not forced, and it's a beautiful thing to attract that abundance into your life with intention. I encourage you to try out this four step process. Why not start tomorrow morning, my friend? Set that intention for the abundance you want to bring into your life. Feel how it feels in your body. Take aligned action and stay open to what comes your way. If this episode inspires you, share it with another woman in midlife who is ready to invite more abundance into her world.
