Hello Beautiful!

Is friendship supposed to feel this hard in midlife?

Whether you’re navigating an empty nest, moving into a new season of life, or just realizing that the built-in friendships from motherhood, work, or church aren’t there anymore—this episode is for you.

In today’s conversation, I’m joined by Cecelia Curtis, host of The Friendship Tour podcast, for a powerful and honest chat about what friendship looks like in midlife—and how to rebuild the kind of connection that truly makes life beautiful again.

We talk about:

• Why friendship shifts in your 40s, 50s, and beyond
• The emotional toll of losing built-in friendships
• How COVID and digital life changed the way women connect
• Myths we believe that keep us stuck in loneliness
• Practical, real-life ways to build meaningful friendships
• Why friendship is part of self-care and spiritual growth

Whether you’ve felt lonely, hesitant to reach out, or just unsure where to start—this episode offers real hope and fresh perspective.

XO,

Michelle

Hello Beautiful!

You don’t have to lose 20 pounds, change your whole wardrobe, or become someone else to feel confident again. In this episode, I’m walking you through a 4-part makeover framework designed specifically for Christian midlife women who are ready to stop hiding and start showing up — right now, exactly as they are.

We’ll cover: - Face: Skin, makeup & face exercise that lift without the needles - Body: Fueling instead of punishing - Style: Wearing what you want to highlight - Mindset: The most important shift that makes it all stick

I’ll also share a bit of my own story — and why weighing over 200 pounds doesn’t stop me from living fully, freely, and on purpose.

Grab your tea, hit play and let’s get back to living that beautiful life!

XO,

Michelle
