This week on Two Women Chatting, Michelle is joined by dynamic duo Marie Thom and Yvonne Vincent for a witty, heartfelt conversation about navigating midlife with confidence, creativity, and community. From finding their voices through writing to embracing ageing with a sense of humour, Marie and Yvonne share how life after 40 can be the most empowering chapter yet.

They also introduce their exciting new podcast, Hear Me Roar, which celebrates the midlife journeys of both women and men - breaking down stereotypes and sparking conversations about confidence, body image and wellness. Whether it’s publishing a book, transforming your health, or simply learning to laugh at the chaos; this episode is a joyful reminder that it’s never too late to rewrite your story.

Key Insights:

🎙️ Confidence Through Connection: Marie and Yvonne highlight how midlife friendships - often formed later in life - can be deeply supportive and transformative.

🎙️ Humour as Healing: Finding the funny in everyday moments isn’t just entertaining - it’s empowering and helps build community.

🎙️ Rewriting the Midlife Narrative: Their upcoming podcast, Hear Me Roar, will spotlight stories of personal growth, health and real-life reinventions from both women and men.

🎙️ Body Image and Self-Worth: Even with improved health, many still struggle with self-perception - Marie and Yvonne encourage open conversations about confidence and embracing change.
