Getting Off the Crazy Train: Living a Soul-Directed Life

Cheryl Richardson September 20, 2022

For decades, New York Times bestselling author Cheryl Richardson has been renowned as a self-care coach for professionals and other high achievers. But when she entered her elder years, life surprised her. All of her many achievements became less important than a new landscape of joys and aspirations that began emerging. “The journey through midlife and beyond,” Cheryl says, “is a shift from less ego to more soul.” In this uplifting episode, she joins host Tami Simon to share practical insights for anyone, at any “calendar age,” to move beyond outer accomplishments and approval, and nurture a deeper life of pleasure and purpose.

Cheryl Richardson is a New York Times bestselling author and self-care expert whose books include Take Time for Your Life, The Art of Extreme Self-Care, and her latest, Waking Up in Winter: In Search of What Really Matters at Midlife. Her work has been covered on Good Morning America, the Today Show, CBS This Morning, and many more. She was team leader for the Lifestyle Makeover Series on The Oprah Winfrey Show and joined Ms. Winfrey on the “Live Your Best Life” nationwide tour.
