Midlife Muddle – Midlife Crisis?

What does the term “Midlife Crisis” mean to you? Are you going through one or been through one? Is it something we all go through as we navigate midlife?

Midlife is a time when we have increased responsibilities and can become overwhelmed with decisions whilst often distracted with other people’s problems. We also begin to question the life choices we’ve made.

Patrick and Michelle discuss their different interpretations on the midlife crisis label and offer tips on what has worked for them including, how to ignore inevitable judgmental eye-rolls and Michelle’s approach to the topic with her coaching clients.

This episode puts a fresh perspective on the cliches and stereotypes that surround the term midlife crisis.

So let’s “talk on to walk on” and let’s see where it leads….

Midlife Muddle – Let’s check in

Do you ever take the time to stop for a minute, and think about the last few weeks or months and what’s happened in your life or more precisely what you’ve achieved?

There are no rules with timing and we can be rubbish at remembering but we want to get better and help you do the same.

So this is our offering based on the first half of 2024. To help us add value we’ve linked our reflections to Patrick’s Midlife to 100 life pillars that he’s chosen as key to living a long and healthy life. They are:- physical health, mental wellness, sleep, nutrition and social interaction/relationships.

We discuss how we’ve stayed connected with family and old friends, both at home and abroad; we reflect on some personal achievements and how the simple things in life, like gardening, dogs and sleep keep us sane in our busy world.

Have a listen and then take a minute to think about what you’ve achieved during the first half of the year. We promise you’ll be pleasantly surprised plus it will help generate thoughts and ideas as to your plans for the year ahead.

So let’s ‘talk on to walk on’ and see where it leads…

Midlife Muddle Habits

Our first Midlife Muddle episode gave an overview of the importance of mindset and touched on how the narrative around midlife is finally changing from doomy gloomy to one of opportunity.

Whilst it’s all very well reading the headlines around “creating the life we want” and “finally being comfortable in our own skin” the reality is it doesn’t always feel that way. This is especially true if we don’t have at least a few good habits to help get us through the days when our joints are aching, we’re exhausted or we’re cracking up because, for the 10th time, we’ve forgotten where we’ve put our glasses or why we came up the stairs…

You will know which habits you either need to ditch or which habits you need to work on but if you want to hear our midlife habit experiences, ideas and top tips to not only survive but thrive in midlife and hopefully beyond then…

Midlife Muddle

Have you ever heard anyone actually say, “I can’t wait to get to 40, 50 or 60…”?
Whatever age you are, are you in denial about the prospect of midlife, or refusing to acknowledge you’ve hit midlife let alone begin to embrace the opportunities that midlife presents?

Regular listeners will recall us asking our guests about their midlife mindset so we thought we would share our own midlife perspectives and experiences in a sub series called “Our Midlife Muddle”.
Our plan is to talk about topics which touch all of us as we work our way through what can be either an overwhelming or empowering stage of our lives.
Future episodes will take a dive into our habit changes, physical and mental wellbeing, careers and how relationships often alter as we navigate our midlife.
Even if you’re not close to 40 please do still listen, to prepare for life when your 40 plus era comes knocking on the door. I had no idea what to expect and was definitely in the denial category!
As always, we will be underpinning our stories with reminders about how the power of meaningful conversations can contribute to our midlife mindset reset.

Is your self talk stopping you?

In this episode Michelle and Patrick discuss the power of self talk.
Our inner voice influences how we feel, how we respond, and is key to our decision-making.
Take a minute to think about what you’ve said to yourself today. Was it self critical? Or was it uplifting and helpful?
Experts estimate that the mind thinks between 60,000 – 80,000 thoughts a day and 80% of those thoughts are negative, being based on inbuilt beliefs often created by outside influences, especially other people and their opinions.

The episode includes Michelle and Patrick’s own techniques for tackling self talk with some revealing moments when they’ve had to dig deep to overcome their own feelings of overwhelm, self-doubt and imposter syndrome.

Just Us – our podcast reflections

This is the first of our Just Us episodes where Patrick and I talk about mind health and wellness topics or quite simply what’s on our minds.

In this episode we discuss Talk on to Walk on; our purpose and goals is an initial theme whilst looking back and reflecting on some of our most recent guests and their fabulous conversational contributions.

We remind ourselves and our listeners that:-

– It’s ok to feel the way we do on certain days and in certain moments.

– Despite guest differences, there was a common theme of how younger and older generations can all influence, learn from and inspire each other.

– Our guests have developed their own life confidence in different ways and

– Every-one has their own very different story and life experiences to share and, through the power of opening up, can have a huge impact on others.

All worthy reminders for our regular listeners but also, if you haven’t listened to our podcast before, this episode is a great place to start.
