1
Today we have to talk about when nothing in your life is technically wrong, but you feel lost.
2
You feel like something is shifting.
3
So I think that you probably can't even make any sense of at this stage.
4
Look, many of you know that I have been going through a major, major life transition in the last three years.
5
And frankly, it has felt a bit like a midlife crisis, even though I'm only 40, I know, but one can still have a midlife crisis, believe it or not.
6
I've decided to report live from this at times very miserable place to be in
7
and a lot of the things that I'm experiencing are very fresh
8
so I'm doing some content about it I'm calling it the starting over series I've already made a few videos
9
so go check them out afterwards if you haven't
10
but so today I want to talk to you about this very strange initial stage
11
that happens before perhaps a midlife crisis emerge
12
or a life transition emerge you know the phase
13
when we are starting to feel something shift inside us
14
and we're like what is this like why is this even
15
happening i mean i don't even understand what this is about
16
because my life is great i don't have any problems
17
or i don't have any serious things like why would i start feeling different about my life
18
when it's when it's working perfectly fine but
19
so i want to talk to you about about
20
that first initial horrible stage
21
because ladies i was actually stuck in mine for a long period of time
22
because i had no idea what was happening i wish i
23
had this video then now look we're also going to be talking about
24
when is it just a phase and when is it a major life change emerging within you
25
or need for a life change like we're going to talk about
26
that as well but before i want to really go into like the first initial things
27
that are going to happen to you in case they're already happening
28
and you're like what is this you know i want to
29
be why am i like this i don't want to be
30
like this you know i want to be normal don't worry
31
that's perfectly normal in the situation to think one thing
32
that i want you to know is that oftentimes before these big life changes
33
or life shifts happen you are going to experience usually an internal shift before meaning
34
that you're not going to have like a major breakdown happen one day
35
and so that's why you start thinking about your life i mean it may happen
36
but usually it starts very quietly and subtly inside yourself okay
37
so you might not just one day wake up
38
and you want to burn down your life you might not
39
one day be like oh i'm having a major crisis this
40
is it you know how it oftentimes feel for many people is
41
that initially they just are feeling like something is a little bit off okay not
42
because something has happened not because there is a crisis
43
or a sudden urge remember just some different feelings maybe some different thoughts unusual thoughts you're having um
44
and i think in the beginning a lot of people spend
45
a lot of time just trying to make sense of what
46
this shift is about like what these thoughts are about like what why am i having these emotions
47
and and how come i'm feeling like this now one thing i want you to know is
48
that a lot of people they of course they they enter some form of big life transition
49
or even midlife crisis or whatever right because of some external event
50
that kind of triggers it all and acts like a catalyst
51
and that usually is actually a little bit easier almost even
52
if it can be incredibly painful
53
because you're not in control over these over this change it has been forced upon you
54
that change but at least you know you have a story
55
that explains your state of mind
56
because let's say your husband wants a divorce okay you can be like okay well I'm feeling like crap today
57
because I'm experiencing grief overwhelm this and
58
that you know it's very difficult this transition because of this divorce
59
and so when you're talking to people
60
when you're you know understanding your own self
61
and how to move forward there is some form of navigation
62
because you have a story to tie your feelings to but
63
if you are initiating a transition yourself oftentimes it is
64
because you have these first feeling emerge within you
65
and they oftentimes don't really carry a story okay they might be connected to something specific
66
that has happened true
67
but oftentimes they don't oftentimes you just feel different you feel
68
weird you feel lost you feel numb you feel less excited you feel a bunch of different things
69
and you might not understand why you are feeling these things.
70
So the point that I'm trying to make is
71
that it becomes very hard to justify whatever you are experiencing
72
and to make sense of it all because it doesn't carry a story.
73
Gosh, I hope you're understanding what I mean.
74
But for me personally, this has been a very, very, very difficult stage to be in.
75
And so when the internal life is shifting okay you're starting to change a little bit inside
76
but the external life like your regular life in terms of
77
like your day-to-day your goals your ambitions you know your mindset your values like everything is operating as per normal
78
but your internal self is shifting there's it's almost like it becomes like a mismatch
79
and that is what causes this feeling of disorientation of feeling lost confused
80
because inside you are kind of moving towards something else
81
but on the outside you're operating as per normal like in
82
the old self you know in my case I must tell you ladies I had no idea
83
that I was going through a major transition in my life until much later.
84
I just thought like okay well I guess I'm just you know thinking a bit differently now you know
85
or just I feel a bit different.
86
I had no idea
87
that what I was actually experiencing was like a midlife crisis type of thing
88
or let's call it more like identity shift and life transition because I didn't even have those labels.
89
I was actually stuck for a very very long period of time not really understanding what was happening
90
because I was like okay I know something is shifting but I have no idea what this is
91
and this is by the way one of the reasons to why I'm making this starting over serious
92
because we have to just make sense of it all that's
93
sometimes the only way of how to be to get unstuck
94
and move forward like when you get clarity you know another thing that personally happened to me was that
95
I started experiencing a lot of guilt.
96
And the guilt is apparently very common, especially for us people who live in Western countries, because a lot of people,
97
let's say, again, as of maybe their mid or late 30s, up until who knows what age,
98
might start feeling like, wow, I'm feeling misaligned somehow.
99
I'm not into this as before.
100
I feel different.
101
I want to make changes.
102
But then you're like, but why do I want to make these changes?
103
I mean, my life is great.
104
I worked so hard to achieve these things.
105
I have no reason to complain.
106
I mean, look at other people.
107
I mean, they would love to be in my situations or look at other people.
108
They have real problems.
109
I feel like I'm inventing problems to myself at this stage because my life is fine.
110
I should just be grateful and carry on.
111
And that, let me tell you, creates loads of guilt.
112
You start feeling guilty because you have a bunch of good things in your life.
113
But now, let's say you want something different.
114
And you know what I have learned in the midst of all of this?
115
Two things can really be true at once.
116
I mean, it sounds a bit like a cliche and maybe it is,
117
but I've noticed how you can absolutely be grateful and feel incredibly privileged about your life,
118
but you can still be having valid feelings of misalignment.
119
Gratitude and misalignment can coexist together at the same time.
120
You can still feel so grateful for what you have and so misaligned at the same time.
121
That took me a long time before I fully understood that that was okay to feel, okay?
122
And I think a lot of people really do get stuck in the initial stages because they feel incredibly guilty, you know, and they might even experience high levels of shame.
123
And so you might start feeling like, okay, I shouldn't be having these feelings.
124
So you might even start rejecting those feelings and that's not necessarily good
125
because you do want to allow yourself to feel what you truly feel
126
and listen to yourself you know in the midst of that
127
because in the end maybe that voice inside you is trying to tell you something
128
that is worth listening to and maybe eventually you start actually making some life changes because of that voice
129
life changes that are necessary for you to make.
130
Another feeling of shame that I think happens as well is that when you are experiencing a lot of internal shifts,
131
they act a bit like invisible problems, okay?
132
Again, you might feel guilty like, oh, am I making up these invisible problems to myself?
133
Invisible problems feels in a way harder to talk to people about or even voicing, even sometimes to yourself people are asking you how are you
134
you're saying well you know what i've been maybe experiencing some depression
135
or a big feeling really off um i can't really explain what it is
136
and so then people start like okay
137
but is everything okay in your life you know
138
and people try to kind of make sense of it like is your work okay is your relationship okay has something happened, you know, and you're there like,
139
well, kind of nothing has happened, you know.
140
But so why this becomes an issue is because when something
141
so internal is happening and you can't really make sense of it all and give a story to people about,
142
it almost makes it feel a bit isolating
143
because it's hard to talk about something where even you don't understand what's happening you just know something is off
144
and that's it you can't explain it more than that
145
and it almost feels easier not to talk to people about it
146
because a you might not want to worry people you know
147
and B there isn't that much to add because obviously people will want to know more and so on.
148
So in my case as an example I've kind of kept a lot of this to myself
149
and I'm not saying that's what you should be doing by the way
150
because I think it always does help to to share you know your burdens with others
151
but I don't know it has been so incredibly isolating to carry this
152
and to try to explain it to people
153
and a few people will understand unless they have really experience it themselves you know
154
and in my particular case as well just as like a little side note
155
because you know I do make content about things
156
that I learn in life things that I experience
157
and I love being authentic here with you
158
but even I have struggled to talk about in great detail about what I am experiencing
159
because I mean I've been thinking to myself like my goodness this sounds
160
so unrelatable I mean people are going to look at me and be like okay she has leveled up her life.
161
Her life is fine.
162
Why is she complaining?
163
It's like she's making stuff up just to have luxury problems almost.
164
And that's what I mean, you know, when I say that a lot of people in Western countries do start feeling these things at some point.
165
And yeah, they will feel quite isolated because you have it so good.
166
Why are you complaining?
167
Why are you inventing problems for yourself when there are others who have it much, much worse than you?
168
Why do you not want to change your life or turn it upside down when you don't have to.
169
But so how do we know when something is just a phase
170
or a thunk or whether we should really be taking those feelings seriously
171
and listen to what our internal self is telling us?
172
Like how do we know the difference between a phase and reality, I guess?
173
Now look, I first and foremost want to tell you
174
and a little disclaimer at the same time
175
that obviously nothing is ever set in stone
176
and I don't want to be sitting here influencing you to
177
to make some really big life changes I'm just here sharing kind of what I have experienced
178
and my thoughts around it
179
and as well what I've seen among my my research into this topic first
180
and foremost I want to say that if something used to energize you
181
but now feels more like is draining you not
182
because something is necessarily bad or you have changed your opinion about something
183
but it can simply be
184
because okay you have grown out of something it might belong to an older version of you
185
and i would also say similarly you know
186
when your goals no longer feels like they create excitement
187
because we all always have goals in our lives right like me as an example i used to have
188
so many level up goals
189
but then one day i was like i'm not really i
190
don't really care for this goal anymore you know this goal
191
doesn't give me anything i don't get like any excitement anymore from this
192
or whatever it used to give me it might really feel like
193
that emotional charge is gone i used to really really love
194
a lot to do with like the finer things in life
195
and luxury and things like that and even though i still like you know
196
that to a certain extent i was so much more into
197
that side of life before
198
because i used to get like i don't know some form of like big level excitement around all of that
199
but then one day i was like huh i don't feel
200
it's exciting as it used to be i feel like other things are exciting me more now
201
and that was like a very good sign
202
that okay maybe I am growing out of something you know shifting interest somehow now
203
if you're also starting to kind of fantasize about something completely different in your life
204
I had it a lot with like simplifying my life changing direction
205
or starting over sometimes even disappearing I was like oh what will happen
206
if I would just like completely disappear from I I don't know, YouTube or the social circles or whatever, right?
207
And so, yeah, you don't necessarily have to act entirely on those fantasies.
208
But I think when you really start thinking deeply about what if I really live differently than what I am doing today,
209
and you are imagining how that would look like and you're maybe even getting a little bit excited about that potential reality.
210
I started having a major shift about how I just wanted a more kind of nature style of life.
211
I always used to associate that life a little bit negatively.
212
I don't know why it's just my own stupid thing in my head, but like, I'm like, but, oh, but I'm not the kind of, you know, granola eating hippie,
213
you know, that's still not my type and nothing wrong with that type, But, you know, it's just so different to me, which is more, I guess,
214
you know, a girl who likes the finer things in life and aesthetics and that kind of thing.
215
But I do think in my soul, I must be that a granola eating hippie
216
because I am maybe drawn to a lot of those things like nature
217
and slower type of lifestyle and I don't know growing your own food
218
or something you know I am drawn to those things and
219
so I started to have a lot of these new interests pop up in my life
220
and I was like why am I interested in how to
221
manage your own land how to drive a tractor you know
222
I don't know I'm like I used to be interested in Hermes bags
223
and now I want to learn how to drive a tractor you know
224
but that's the thing sometimes it is a little bit like
225
that and you might not even take yourself seriously I certainly did not take myself seriously
226
but I think it's important to listen to what
227
that voice tells you another subtle sign might be
228
when you start feeling really detached from the identity
229
that people associate you with because of course people see one version of you perhaps
230
but inside of yourself you might already in a sub on
231
a subconscious level be associating yourself very differently i had
232
that as well you know especially i think a lot of people who maybe know me more as an acquaintance
233
or a friend a lot of people are like oh well anna you're
234
so nice and elegant and you know you like
235
that whole elegant thing and i was like yeah but that's actually
236
so not the entire side of me
237
and i started to feel like yeah that's true there is a side of me who still likes
238
that but actually i don't really feel like the elegant identity is is accurate for me anymore i don't know
239
and so that usually says that okay you might internally growing somewhere else
240
but your external hasn't yet caught up you know please do
241
know whatever i am mentioning it does sound like you might already be kind of understanding what you want
242
but i do know
243
that in the very very early stages you might oftentimes know what you don't want
244
but you have no idea what you actually want okay
245
so this new version of yourself has not really emerged yet
246
you just kind of know what you are done with and
247
so that is also very important to to know
248
that no need to put pressure on yourself to know what
249
you should be doing what you should be wanting what kind
250
of identity you should be having what kind of lifestyle you
251
should be living etc now these are just a few samples
252
of you know some subtle signs I would say there are probably
253
so many more but one thing is for sure
254
and this is what I personally did
255
when I started to feel like I was having a yeah
256
a change of heart emerge within me my first instinct
257
which really proved to be right was
258
that I was like okay you know what let me do a time test
259
because I need to know is this just a phase or is this kind of
260
i guess my new reality you know um
261
so i let this rest for about six months i'm not
262
saying you have to let it rest for six months maybe you need less time than
263
that but for sure
264
that can give you some clarity whether you know this is just a funk
265
or not sometimes you might even need to take some specific
266
action maybe you need to go on a holiday maybe you
267
need to take proper rest maybe you need to fix certain
268
problems in your life to see okay is this really a new version of you emerging
269
or were you just tired
270
or did you just need a break you know listen ladies i want you to know
271
that if you are in a confused place it is oftentimes the first sign
272
that maybe this is the beginning of a transition i'm not saying it is i'm not making any claims here
273
but confusion is oftentimes
274
a very good tell and that is
275
because the old is now losing its grip on you
276
or losing authority in your life but the new has not yet found its direction
277
so you are there kind of i don't know figuring things out
278
and therefore you are quite confused
279
so start listening to whatever your voice is telling you i'm not saying go up
280
and blow up your life today no and please do not panic either
281
because i know that
282
if you are going to embark on a transition it can
283
feel like quite an uphill it certainly have been like
284
that for me but i want you to know
285
that even in the darkest hour it has still been been
286
so worth it even if i'm not yet out on on the other side yet completely
287
but i do know that living in alignment is ultimately what's going to always bring you the most happiness in life, the most peace.
288
And so even if it's going to be a little bit painful at times to get to that alignment, or you have to take some difficult decision or decisions, or you have to, you know,
289
turn your life upside down for some time, in the end, I believe that it's going to be worth it.
290
I really do believe it.
291
Living authentically and living in alignment, I don't know, I really feel like this is the feeling, the ultimate feeling of freedom.
292
And I think we all want to be in that state of equilibrium, I guess, where we feel this is what we truly want to do in life.
293
This is truly how we want to live.
294
And so I think everything is worth it to get there.

- /p/ — ليس /b/: انطقه مع نفخة هواء: upside /ˈʌpˌsaɪd/, disappear /dɪsəˈpɪɹ/, simplify /ˈsɪmplɪfaɪ/, uphill /ʌpˈhɪl/, grip /ˈɡɹɪp/
- /v/ — ليس /f/: مع اهتزاز الأوتار الصوتية: invisible /ɪnˈvɪzəb(ə)l/, invent /ɪnˈvɛnt/, overwhelm /ˌoʊ.vɚˈwɛlm/, navigation /nævɪˈɡeɪʃən/, privilege /ˈpɹɪv.(ɪ.)lɪd͡ʒ/
- تتابع الصوامت — لا تضف حركة بينها: oftentimes /ˈɔf.ənˌtaɪmz/, alignment /əˈlaɪn.mənt/, elegant /ˈɛləɡənt/, guilt /ɡɪlt/, excitement /ɪkˈsaɪtmənt/
كيف تتدرب بهذا الفيديو
- استمع إلى الفيديو كاملًا مرة واحدة دون أن تتكلم، ودوّن الكلمات التي لا تعرفها.
- ابدأ بسرعة 0.75×، وردّد جملة جملة، ثم عُد إلى السرعة العادية عندما يصبح الأمر سهلًا.
- سجّل صوتك وقارنه بالأصل، مع الانتباه إلى كلمات مثل oftentimes, emerge, isolate.
ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟
التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
