In this insightful episode of Make Time for Success, Dr. Christine Li discusses how to revitalize your energy in midlife. Fresh from her own experience recovering from the flu, she shares valuable perspectives on transforming old energy-draining habits into more sustainable practices. Dr. Li identifies three common habits that may be depleting your energy: the tendency to force yourself through tasks, expecting consistently high performance regardless of circumstances, and treating your energy as an unlimited resource.

She then presents a comprehensive 7-point framework for a midlife energy makeover, offering practical strategies to help listeners reconnect with their vitality and create more sustainable energy management practices. Whether you're dealing with changing responsibilities, bodily transitions, or seeking better ways to validate your efforts, this episode provides actionable steps for creating a more energized and balanced life in your middle years.

For listeners seeking additional resources, Dr. Li offers a free downloadable guide at MakeTimeForSuccessPodcast.com/makeover to support your energy transformation journey.
