A 45 degree bank left or right in a helicopter puts your body under pressure, just like middle age. You are in a battle balancing careers, parenthood, relationships, aging, and all that comes with it. Former helicopter pilot Darisse Smith uses the stories from her life to talk about the pressures of being to the left or right of age 45.
