Understanding Stress After 35

As you move beyond 35, life's demands shift, and with them, the nature of stress. It's no longer just about meeting deadlines; it's about balancing a complex web of responsibilities:
- Career Advancement: Pressure to lead, mentor, and continually innovate.
- Family Obligations: Raising children, supporting partners, and often, caring for aging parents.
- Financial Planning: Securing retirement, funding education, and managing growing expenses.
- Health Concerns: Noticing changes in metabolism, energy, and needing proactive health management.
- Austin-Specific Challenges: The intensifying traffic, rising cost of living, and hyper-competitive work culture.
