4: stress, midlife, and “why are you breathing like that?”

7: New Season, New Habits

In this episode of Take The Turn with Maryanna and Jay, we talk about building new habits for a new season of life.

By midlife, many of us have spent decades developing habits, routines, and systems — some helpful, some not so helpful, and some we barely notice anymore. But as life changes, the habits that carried us through one season may not be the habits we need for what comes next.

Inspired by ideas from Atomic Habits by James Clear, we discuss why goals give us direction, but systems create progress. We also talk about how identity shapes real change and how we can be more intentional in marriage, parenting, faith, health, work, relationships, and planning for the future.

Plus, we close with a fun round of Would You Rather… involving sharks, bears, coffee, chocolate, haunted houses, elevators, roller coasters, and the big question: would you rather have a rewind button or a pause button for your life?
