5 Powerful Self-Care Questions Every Woman Over 40 Should Ask Herself
There comes a moment—often after decades of doing, giving, building, and supporting—when we realize it’s time to come home to ourselves.
For many women over 40, this moment can feel like a gentle nudge… or a powerful wake-up call. Whether it’s a shift in energy, health, relationships, or simply a longing for something more aligned, the message is clear: self-care is no longer optional—it’s essential.
Not the spa-day version (though we love those too), but the kind of self-care that invites deep reflection and loving clarity. The kind that reconnects us to our joy, our dreams, and the woman we’re becoming.
That’s why I created this free Self-Care Reflection Worksheet—a gentle yet powerful tool to help you pause, listen, and realign.
Here are the 5 self-care questions every woman over 40 should ask herself:
1. What no longer serves me?
Letting go is one of the most powerful acts of self-care. Whether it’s outdated routines, draining relationships, or limiting beliefs, this question invites you to clear space for something new.
2. What brings me joy?
It’s easy to forget what lights us up. Rediscover the people, places, and passions that energize your spirit.
3. How do I want my life to look and feel?
Visualizing your ideal life isn’t selfish—it’s sacred. This question helps you design your next season with intention and purpose.
4. What kind of woman am I becoming?
We are always evolving. Naming the qualities of the woman you’re stepping into can help guide your decisions with confidence.
5. What small changes can I begin making now?
Transformation begins with tiny steps. This question brings your vision into the present with tangible, loving action.
