“I’m just waiting for the right time.”
I hear this a lot from women in their late 30s, 40s and 50s.
It sounds smart and careful. But waiting for the perfect time often keeps women stuck longer than they want to be.
There’s always something:
Interest rates
Market headlines
Kids’ schedules
Work demands
Low energy from perimenopause or menopause
Life rarely slows down enough to hand you a perfect window.
What actually helps is having a calm plan. Not a rushed one. Not a stressful one. Just a clear understanding of options and timing.
When women stop waiting for perfect conditions and start preparing instead, the pressure eases. Decisions feel less scary because they’re no longer rushed.
