What's your thing? The thing you used to love doing, but life has got in the way of late and you've put your thing on the back-burner, consigned to the "not today, I've not got time" pile?

If this sounds familiar, join me and my guest Brand Photography Strategist Liz Devonshire as we explore How to Keep Your Passion Alive as a Midlife woman.

Liz shares how her love affair with photography began in her teens, and how she has kept the spark alive - both at work and play - over the decades, so that today it remains both her business and her number one creative outlet.

And, with many of us adjusting to empty nests, we share our insights and inspiration for how now is a great time to resurrect long-forgotten or overlooked interests that can start bringing us joy at this pivotal time.

Our full conversation is also available in the transcript.

How do you feel about AI? Is it becoming an essential part of your Midlife? Or are you steering clear, heeding headlines that humanity's days are numbered, as industry bosses warn we need to slow AI down or face extinction?

It's scary stuff.

And whatever stance you take, it seems AI is here to stay.

So how can we strike a balance between taking a Luddite stance, and risking losing our identity as we give AI creative reign over our lives.

I like to shake things up on Midlife Unlimited®, so I’m delighted to be joined by my SECOND every male guest, author and Founder of My True Talent Jez Kay, to explore How to Survive the AI Age as a Midlifer.

Join us as we delve into what it means to be human, what lies at the core of our identity and the lure of alter-egos, and the joy of paradox.

And don't miss our insights and inspiration for how to invite AI into our lives as a co-pilot while still maintaining authorship of our future.

Our full conversation is also available in the transcript.

It can feel like a struggle some days to find something to smile about, let alone have a good old meno-belly laugh.

But the positive power of comedy, and the joy of unleashing the ability to laugh at ourselves, are two of my not-at-all-guilty pleasures.

And my Episode 105 guest agrees. Because I'm delighted to be joined by Lynne Parker, award-winning Founder and Chief Exec of Funny Women CIC, to talk about How to Find Your Funny.

Lynne shares what sparked her love affair with comedy, and we explore the evolution of female stand-ups and the legacy that Funny Women CIC is creating - and how you can get involved, from both a creative and audience perspective.

Both advocates of positive ageing, Lynne and I also share anecdotes and inspiration for how we can harness humour to add life to our years and smash those stereotypes and age-related misconceptions.

Menopause. It's a fact, and we can't change that. But one thing I'm all for is making sure the facts we get surrounding menopause are just that - facts.

There's a potential minefield of misinformation out there, with companies jumping on the menopause bandwagon claiming you need their products, with no science to back this. There's even a term for it, meno-washing!

So if you're confused, bemused and heading into overwhelm, then this episode is for you.

Because I'm delighted to be joined by my guest Charlotte Body, founder of The Health Assembly - home of hormones and longevity, to talk about How to understand your hormones so you understand your health.

Charlotte shares insights and revelations and from her menopause and how what she experienced was the springboard for PAUSE Live which returns to London for its 4th year on Saturday 10th October 2026.

And Midlife Unlimited listeners can get 10% off tickets using the code PAUSE10 via the link below.

Are you getting enough? Could you always do with more?

Sleep! Arguably Midlife’s most precious commodity – and a hot topic with a myriad of information, advice and suggestions infiltrating our socials… to the point that it’s tough to sort what will actually work for us from the latest marketing fad.

So if you’re fed up with tossing and turning, but exhausted trying to find a solution, then Midlife Unlimited® Episode 103 is just for you.

Because I’m delighted to be joined by my guest Sonia Jenkins, Midlife health coach and author of The Invisible Midlife Woman, to talk about How to get a good night’s sleep.

We explore why sleep seems more important – and all-to-often illusive – than ever in Midlife, and Sonia brings her 40plus years’ experience in the NHS and as a nurse practitioner to debunk some of the misinformation we’re being fed.

Sonia and I share insights and inspiration for how to assess and rethink our sleep hygiene routine.

But our conversation goes much deeper than cutting back on caffeine and ditching the doom scrolling.

Don’t miss Sonia’s two powerful and practical experiments that will help you start getting to the root of the why you are not getting a good night’s sleep – and the steps you can take to turn this around.

If you’d told me 10 years ago that I’d be sitting here at 57 with a band of fabulous cheerleaders, and nurturing wonderful new friendships, I’d have laughed in your face…

Because I was lonely.

Friendships had drifted…

Circumstances had shifted.

And I didn’t have the confidence, or the motivation, to start forging new connections, whether for business or pleasure.

But it is possible… I’m proof.

And it’s a timely topic to explore as we kick-start September.

So I’m delighted to be joined for Midlife Unlimited Episode 102 by LinkedIn Strategist and trainer Jen Corcoran to talk about How to make Connections that Count as a Midlife woman.

Joining the dots can be scary, especially when a myriad of Midlife changes can be making us feel vulnerable.

From that wedding where you know no-one, to joining a new dance class, via the potentially overwhelming new networking event, Jen and I explore why temptation to choose JOMO over FOMO can cause us to miss out on marvellous opportunities to turn chance meetings into meaningful relationships.

We explore why quality over quantity is the way to go when forging Midlife friends.

Jen shares inspiration and anecdotes for her experiences as both an introvert and a super connector, and don’t miss our proven practical advice that you can use to start meeting people that light you up – whether at work or play.

And – it would be rude not to ask her – Jen walks us through how we can ensure our LinkedIn headline is a powerful tool for attracting connections that count.

Do you want to unlock the mysteries of the stars? After exploring Chinese Astrology with Denise O'Dwyer in Episode 88, in the interests of balance this Metal Monkey wanted to explore how I align with typical Gemini traits. So I've called in the expert, and am delighted to be joined for this episode by Astrologer and Art of Timing Advisor Ysanne Lewis to talk about How to use Western Astrology to make today your "one day".

Dubbed "The Modern Navigator" by her clients, Ysanne shares insights and anecdotes from over 40 years speaking the language of the stars and interpreting how they intertwine with the sun, moon and planets to impact and influence our lives.

And, using my birth chart as an example, Ysanne explains how we can harness astrology to make the most of the opportunities that Midlife brings... and use it to help us bring our goals and dreams to fruition.

Are you living Midlife in the shadows? Diluting your brilliance? Stifling how you really think... and feel.

Enough! It's time to unleash your fabulousness on the world in all your gloriously perfect imperfection, and my landmark Episode 100 guest Sonya Rose of Sonya Rose Coaching and I are going to help you do just that.

We're sharing our real-life insights and inspiration for how we have metamorphosed from people pleasers - even social chameleons - in near constant fear of judgment to women who are owning the Midlife stage... and can guide and cheerlead you to do so too.
