40 really is the new 30

40 really is the new 30 | News Article

What was the moment you realised you might be middle aged? Was it when you admitted to yourself that you have a favourite stove plate?

The Good Morning Breakfast shed some light on the subject. Maybe we just need to make middle age sound cool, maybe we need more middle-aged influencers.


Good news is that 40 might really be the new 30. Your 40s are often seen as a milestone that brings big changes, but that doesn't necessarily mean you need to slow down or feel older. If you compare “middle age” in 2025 with “middle age” fifty years ago, many people are experiencing this decade differently, forty-year-olds have more energy and confidence.
