The State of Midlife: What the Data Found
Join us live with Forty Fifty's Ali Rand to walk through new research on midlife and what it found.
For five years, searches for “feel like a different person” climbed 363 percent, while searches for “midlife identity crisis” stayed almost flat. That gap is the finding. Women are living the biggest identity shift on record and turning down the word the culture keeps handing them for it.
If you've ever felt like a different mujer than the one you used to be and couldn't quite name what changed, this conversation is for you.
Forty Fifty spent five years listening to women in midlife: 200 first-person essays written under their own names, five years of search data, and the questions women bring to AI when they think no one is watching. They built it into The State of Midlife, a new kind of research on this stretch of life. The data is striking, and what stayed with us is how much of it sounds like the conversations we’ve been having with you here on Her Wisdom Era from day one. We highly recommend you read it before we go live. You'll see yourself in so much of it!
On Wednesday, June 3, Cristy and Ana are sitting down LIVE with Forty Fifty founder Ali Rand, a Nuyorican who is solidly in midlife herself. We’ll walk through what the data found and where our voices fit inside a conversation the culture hasn’t fully made space for yet.
We want you in the room with us here on Substack Live. Trae tus preguntas y tus dudas, and the things you’ve only ever said out loud to that trusted friend. Esto es una conversación, not a broadcast.
