How to Heal Your Wife's Midlife Crisis
Episode 30
Tuesday, 28 October, 2025
You've been told "midlife crisis" means your marriage is doomed. Not true. In this episode, we break down what's really happening (identity crisis + FOMO) and how to respond in a way that actually helps—without chasing, lecturing, or pressure. WHAT THIS COVERS What a midlife crisis really is: an identity crisis where one role feels good (work, friends, gym) and others feel punishing (wife, mom) Why she skews toward the one rewarding identity and away from the rest The "FOMO" driver: "There's something I can only get outside the marriage" Escapism loops and why there's lots of talk but slow follow-through Your role: guide and endure—not fix TWO QUESTIONS THAT CHANGE EVERYTHING Identity: How can you support a positive view of who she is inside the marriage (wife, mom, family)? Make those roles feel rewarding again and show the real return on her sacrifices. Possibility: How can you support a vision of marriage that includes healthy versions of what she wants outside it (freedom, independence, novelty, meaning)? ENDURING THE IN-BETWEEN Expect one step forward, two steps back. Use the "walkabout" mindset: keep home base safe and positive for the moments she circles back, and quietly embody your answers to the two questions above. NEXT STEPS Episode notes, quotes, and overview: episode overview Want support while you walk this out?
