Say Hello to the Modern Gen X Woman

Modern Gen X Woman

We’re proud to be Gen Xers.

But we’re done being the forgotten generation and we’re over the Oprah article the New Mid-Life Crisis and the follow-up bestseller Why We Can’t Sleep.

It’s time to change the rules and the conversation around being a Gen X Women.

We’ve been deeply connected with Gen X Women, heck we are Gen X women and we’ve decided to not contribute to the dismissive and depressing conversations around who we are.
Instead, we’re here to shift the perspective around what it means to be a Gen X woman.
Let us be clear. This isn’t lip service, it’s about creating a movement and it starts with you. We want Gen X women to recognize value and demand their worth so the world takes notice.

In this episode, we’re introducing you to the Modern Gen X Woman and all she embodies. Take a listen and you’ll soon realize it is the podcast you’ve known and loved — only amplified.

In this episode, we point out the differences between a Gen X Woman and a Modern Gen X Woman.
The Gen X Woman…

• Is resilient but at the cost of burning out, the Modern Gen X Woman processes her emotions and then puts together a plan to deal with it.

• Likes being a part of the forgotten generation as she can stay safe and blend into the background, while the Modern Gen X Woman wants to use her voice and get recognized for her contribution.

• Has unrealistic expectations, she tries to do it all, perfectly and then is crushed when it doesn’t live up to her expectations. The Modern Gen X Woman bases her expectations against what she wants to do and then ruthlessly prioritizes against this in order to do it.
  
• Wears her busyness as a badge of honor, the Modern Gen X Woman doesn’t do anything to impress anyone else or prove her worth.
  
• Laughs at the generation wars, the Modern Gen X Woman knows she can use “middle child” perspective to bridge the divide.
  
• Super independent, the Modern Gen X Woman knows she can’t do it all alone and gets the right support.
  
• Wears all her identities as masks, the Modern Gen X Woman knows herself and her values first.
  
• Loves learning but feels like she never knows enough, the Modern Gen X woman learns and applies it immediately.
