Rock The Midlife

When we reach the 40s, everything we are going through, every change we notice is too often dismissed as "just" menopause. It diminishes our struggles, it belittles our experience and it's blurring our view on other issues that are presenting themselves.

It's not just physical changes, but more internal, deep knowing on a soul level, that things are changing. And while this rite of passage used to be celebrated and honored, now in modern days we brush it off and push aside.

In this interview, we talked about how we should accept, acknowledge, and appreciate this phase, allowing our souls to emerge and shine. Debs explained the astrology and Kundalini aspects of this passage and we both agreed that our bodies are divine creations with innate knowledge and a sense of working perfectly if we allow and support them.

Thinking of starting dating again after a divorce? It might be scary, awkward, and often times very challenging, especially with the luggage of past experiences most women (and men) went through - divorce, family court, empty nest, elderly parents...

In this interview, we talked about how women can break the pattern of dating the wrong guys by finding that inner peace and love for themselves first. And Jonathon gave some awesome tips on how women can understand men better.

As we approach midlife, it's so easy to get comfortable, content, and complacent, telling ourselves that we are too old, that it's too late, and that most of our lives are over.

Leanne is a perfect example of how life can be amazing even when we grow older. She embraced her inner knowing, trusting her intuition and living life to the fullest - jumping from one adventure into another, trying new things, and boldly following her dreams.

To be yourself in today's world requires courage, but also taking full responsibility for our thoughts, actions and emotions. Living the life on our terms and consciously creating the world around us demands the integratiy, honoring our values and most of all, choosing who we want to be.

In this episode, I talk about those choices that we are making every day, regardless of the situation, about taking ownership of our choices regardless of the outcome and about expecting miracles and magic regardless of our past experiences.

We are more confused and overwhelmed than ever when it comes to actually losing weight and keeping it off. All the options, information, diets, trends... we are bombarded every day with, yet more and more people are struggling with choosing to eat what's right for them.

Suz shared her own story of shame and fear around weight, which led her to her mission - helping other women find food peace. We discussed common mistakes and struggles that keep women from successful weight loss. Suz shared some really simple tips that anyone can follow to get and stay healthy.

Finding the right partner and having a great relationship seems like a big mountain to climb. Especially for women in midlife, who have been through their own share of bad dates or relationships, who now approach dating with caution and reserve and who are not settling for anything but the best.

We talked about finding the right partner and what do men and women really look for. And also about keeping the spark alive in the relationship and how to grow together. Scot created a mantra "Deserve what you want." to emphasize the importance of being the kind of person who will attract the right match. He also says relationships shouldn't be hard work

Being able to hold space and counsel for yourself is empowering. No one else can truly feel into the totality of your emotions, intuition, and true desires like you can. 

Susan shares how anybody can interpret messages the Universe sends, getting in touch and in tune with your soul, for yourself, and why it is so empowering to read your own cards and learn symbolism. We also discussed how the community has progressed toward a much more accepting attitude towards tools like Tarot and how those tools are now widely available for everyone to use.

In this interview, Sarupa talks about the true role of money as the exchange tool, nothing else. Yet we've made it so complicated. We give it so much importance. We make decisions through money. We measure our value, worth, and purpose with it. We tie so many fears and doubts and insecurities with it.

We talked about the common stories we tell ourselves of and about money and how to change those stories to serve us, not hinder us. When we change these stories, we change the energies in our lives. Sarupa encourages us to explore our relationship with money to discover who we are and who we could be in the world. 

When we hit our 40s or 50s, it seems like we have it all. But so many of us start to feel something is missing. We start to question who we really are, what we are here on Earth for, what's our soul mission and purpose...

In this episode, Alenka shares why she believes that getting to know, accept, and finally be yourself is the greatest gift of midlife. We get to see behind the curtains, the veils are lifting and the layers of our conditioning are falling away. We get to dig deep inside, finding and uncovering pieces of ourselves that we hid to please and accommodate others. To finally be ourselves.

Menopause is a natural phase in our lives, the evolution of women's bodies, yet so often it comes with anxiety, fear, and worry. Usually, it's accompanied by threats and intimidation stories from the elderly. Add to that the marketing and media that emphasize the problems and issues, and no wonder women get overwhelmed and scared.

In this interview, Angie Garton shares how to do menopause naturally. We discussed the symptoms that women can experience and the common mistakes women make when entering this stage. Angie talks about the simple steps and strategies so women can feel more control and can get on with their life again.
