Send us Fan Mail Money. We all need it, we all want more of it, but how many of us actually have a healthy relationship with it?

High Functioning Drinker Turned Sober Coach: An Interview with Sandra Parker

Send us Fan Mail In this episode we’re joined by Sandra Parker, founder of Just The Tonic Coaching, who knows first-hand what it’s like to be a high-functioning drinker. After a successful career in finance, Sandra changed her own relationship with alcohol and now helps others take back control. We explore why alcohol is so deeply ingrained in our culture, the emotional patterns that keep us reaching for a drink, and whether changing your relationship with alcohol has to mean giving it up altogether. We also get into the idea of indifference, getting to a place where alcohol no longer occupies your thoughts or dictates your choices. So, whether you’re sober curious, thinking about cutting back, or simply wondering whether alcohol is giving you as much as it’s taking away, this episode is for you. https://justthetoniccoaching.com/ Support the show Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

Couplepause: Our Book Is Almost Here

Send us Fan Mail In this episode we’ve got some really exciting news to share with you. After teasing this for what feels like forever, we can finally tell you that we’ve written a book! It’s called Couplepause and it’s coming out this November. We wrote it because we talk so much about menopause, andropause and midlife, but one of the things that often gets overlooked is what happens to our relationships during this season of life. We’re navigating changing hormones, stress, shifting identities, intimacy and all the pressures that midlife throws at us, often without really understanding what’s going on. We wanted to give couples practical tools to help them understand each other better, communicate more effectively and, hopefully, come out the other side feeling closer than ever. So today, we’re going to tell you a little more about the book, why we wrote it, what’s inside, and what else we’ve got planned for Couplepause. Because this is about so much more than a book. It’s about helping couples realise that midlife doesn’t have to mean growing apart. It can be an opportunity to reconnect and have an amazing future together. To be a first reader, email us at team@themidlifementors.com and title the email 'Couplepause First Reader' You can pre-order your copy of Couplepause here: https://amzn.eu/d/09BOMd00 Support the show Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

Rethinking Time, Productivity & Purpose: Interview with Lissa Figgins

Send us Fan Mail Do you ever feel like you’re in a constant battle with time? Always trying to find more of it and always falling short? If this sounds familiar, we’d encourage you to keep your mind open as you listen to this episode, and consider that the problem might not be time, but our relationship with it. This week we’re joined by Lissa Figgins, a scaling strategist and podcast host from the US, to talk about time from a Christian perspective — and the difference between managing our time and actually stewarding it. We talk about why modern life has left so many of us feeling constantly behind, the impact of technology, and why asking ‘what is it time for?’ might be a much better question than ‘how do I fit everything in? This is a really thought-provoking conversation, so let’s get into it.

What A Hostage Negotiator Can Teach Us About Communication: Interview With Nicky Perfect

Send us Fan Mail What can a hostage negotiator teach us about having better conversations? Quite a lot, it turns out. Today we're joined by Nicky Perfect, a former police hostage and crisis negotiator who spent years working with the police and UK government in some incredibly challenging situations - including kidnappings, terrorist incidents and major crises. She went on to become Director of UK Training for hostage and crisis negotiation, teaching police officers, military personnel and other professionals how to communicate in high-pressure situations. In this episode we talk to Nicky about conflict, communication, listening, relationships and why sometimes the most important thing you can do in a difficult conversation is not to talk at all. Because as Nicky says, connection comes before direction. So, whether you’re in a relationship, managing a difficult conversation at work, or simply trying to communicate better with the people you care about, there’s a lot in this conversation for you.

Send us Fan Mail We've had a few weeks off over August, but while we've been away, the world hasn't exactly stood still. So today we're having a bit of a catch-up - what's happened in the world, what's caught our attention, and what does any of it actually mean for us? From Meta and our relationship with social media, to the new UK government, gold quietly moving from the US to London, and what's happening in the bond markets and our pensions.

Why You're Running On Autopilot

Send us Fan Mail Let me ask you a question. If nothing changed over the next five years - if you kept living exactly as you are today - how would you honestly feel? It’s all easy to slip into patterns in life, so though we might be successful, busy, doing all the things we thought we were supposed to do… something feels missing. So in today's episode, I'm talking about one of the biggest hidden challenges of midlife: how we gradually drift onto autopilot without even realising it. I'll explore why success doesn't always bring fulfilment, why the second half of life asks different questions to the first, and, most importantly, how you can start living more intentionally again.

Cracking The Man Code: Unlock The Mystery of How Men Think, Love & Communicate - Interview with Mat Boggs

Send us Fan Mail Relationships can be one of the most rewarding parts of life... but they can also be one of the most confusing, especially in midlife. Many women tell us they feel like the man they love has changed. He's become quieter, more distant, or harder to connect with.

In today's episode, we're joined by one of the world's leading relationship coaches and author of Cracking The Man Code, Mat Boggs, to unpack what's happening beneath the surface. We explore what women often misunderstand about men, why so many men seem to pull away in midlife, what they're actually craving in a relationship, and the communication tools that can help create deeper connection.

Is 'Midlife' Having A Moment?

Send us Fan Mail In this episode we’re discussing whether there’s a midlife moment going on? When we launched The Midlife Mentors podcast back in 2019, people told us using the term midlife was a bad idea as no one liked it. Midlife wasn't a fashionable subject. It was something people associated with crisis, decline or simply getting older, not a stage of life people actively wanted to talk about. Fast forward to today and it feels like midlife is everywhere. From menopause and longevity to healthspan, hormones and even how employers think about an ageing workforce, something has definitely shifted. So is this just a moment in the spotlight? Or are we witnessing the beginning of a genuine reinvention of the way we view midlife that's changing what we think is possible? And what exciting things might come next?

Unlocking Financial Freedom For Every Woman: With Alex Theis

Send us Fan Mail Money affects almost every area of our lives, yet it's one of the subjects many of us feel least confident talking about. And yet - in midlife, when we're thinking about retirement, career changes, caring for ageing parents, or simply creating more freedom and security, understanding our finances has never been more important. Today's guest is Alex Theis. After an 18-year career in finance and investment banking, Alex combined her financial expertise with coaching to help women build confidence with money, challenge limiting beliefs, and make investing and financial planning feel far less overwhelming. Through her work and her 'Women Can Finance' community, she's on a mission to make financial wellbeing accessible, empowering and, dare we say it, even enjoyable. In this conversation, we explore why so many women lack confidence around money, how our childhood experiences shape our financial habits, the psychology behind spending and debt, practical first steps to growing wealth, and why taking control of your finances isn't just about money - it's about creating more choice, confidence and freedom in every area of your life.

If We Could Go Back Five Years...

Send us Fan Mail Five years ago, the world looked very different. We were navigating a global pandemic, rebuilding our business, and trying to make sense of an uncertain future. Like so many people, we had no idea what the next few years would bring. If we could go back and sit down with our younger selves, knowing everything we know now, what would we say? In this episode, we're sharing the lessons we wish we'd learned sooner - from trusting ourselves instead of the noise around us, to realising that healing is often more important than discipline, and why relationships, faith, rest and taking time to pause have become some of the greatest priorities in our lives. Whether you're navigating change, questioning what's next, or simply wondering if you're on the right path, we hope this conversation encourages you to reflect on your own journey - and perhaps helps you learn a few things from our hindsight rather than having to learn them all the hard way.

Why We Remember Criticism and Forget the Good

Send us Fan Mail Why is it that one piece of criticism can stay with us for years, yet we quickly forget the things that are going well? The answer lies in our psychology. Human beings are wired to spot threats and problems. It's how we survived. But in today's world, that negativity bias can leave us stressed, anxious and focused on what's wrong. In this episode, James is flying solo exploring the science of gratitude. Not as a fluffy self-help idea, but as a practical tool for improving wellbeing, resilience and perspective. James looks at what psychology tells us, why gratitude works, and how you can train your brain to notice more of what's good in your life.

We started out talking about career change for midlife women and how our purpose shifts as we enter our menopause years, but what unfolded was a much deeper conversation about the stories we tell ourselves, the dreams we've quietly put on hold, and why so many women reach midlife feeling disconnected from the parts of themselves that once felt most alive.

Who Am I Now? The Midlife Identity Shift

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever looked at your life and thought, "I don't feel like me anymore?" Maybe everything looks fine on the surface. The career, the family, the home, the responsibilities you've spent years building. But underneath, something feels different. You feel restless, disconnected, flat... or perhaps you're questioning things that once seemed certain. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. In today's episode, we're talking about one of the most common but least discussed experiences of midlife: the shift in identity that happens as our roles change, our priorities evolve, our bodies and hormones change, and we begin asking deeper questions about who we are and what truly matters. We'll explore why so many men and women feel lost during this stage of life, how it shows up in everyday behaviours, and most importantly, how to navigate it with greater clarity, self-compassion and hope. Because this isn't about having a midlife crisis. It's about discovering who you are becoming.
