Life Check Yourself 504 – Love After 40: 5 Proven Keys to Confidence, Boundaries, and Emotional Freedom
In this powerhouse episode of Life Check Yourself, I sit down with JM Ryerson—leadership coach, international speaker, and bestselling author of Let’s Go Win and Upgrade. JM is the founder and CEO of Let’s Go Win and has helped companies double (and sometimes triple!) their revenue by simplifying leadership, alignment, and performance. If you’re navigating work stress, team dysfunction, or feeling stuck in victim-mode, this episode is a must-listen.
We dive deep into what it takes to thrive in the ever-changing world of work—especially if you’re juggling it all in midlife. From mindset hacks to leadership strategies, JM shares no-fluff wisdom that’ll help you stop spinning your wheels and start winning with intention.
🔥 Top 3 Takeaways:
- Stop Mistaking Activity for Alignment
Being busy doesn’t mean you’re being effective. Clarity and simplicity are the secret weapons for massive growth. - Focus Creates Flow
Interruptions are killing your productivity. Protect your energy and time like it’s sacred—because it is. - Boundaries Build Freedom
Every ‘yes’ is a ‘no’ to something else. Learn how to say no without guilt, and watch your joy, health, and impact rise.
🕒 4:29 – Upgrade Your Mindset, Don’t Resist Change
“Write down how you’re feeling… Once it’s out, we can focus on the upside.”
Change is inevitable, but how we interpret it is optional. Writing out your resistance helps you move from reactive to reflective, allowing you to design your next move instead of defaulting to fear.
🕒 10:18 – Turn Off Notifications, Turn On Productivity
“Be intentional about setting boundaries with your time and tasks. It’s not rocket science, but it is discipline.”
Productivity doesn’t come from doing more—it comes from doing what matters, undistracted. Design your environment (like JM’s no-distraction computer setup) to match your goals, not your temptations.
🕒 21:13 – Every 'Yes' Is a 'No' to Something Else
“People won’t say no to others, but they’ll say no to themselves all day long.”
Boundaries aren’t about being selfish—they’re about being in integrity. Saying yes to one more late call might mean saying no to your kids, your rest, or your creative flow. Get clear on your why so your no’s feel empowering, not scary.
