Midlife

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.
Let’s ‘talk on to walk on’ and see where it leads…

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.

Let’s talk on to walk on with Michelle and Patrick and see where it leads…

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.
