This is episode (4) of our special nine-part series entitled Families Change where Julie Flakstad, sits down in-person with Kelly Corrigan to discuss the voluminous topic of changing family dynamics as we enter midlife. In this episode, Kelly shares her valuable perspective + insights on how motherhood evolves as our children age, the ache of learning to let go, as well as her brave thought that while we can never get enough of our children, we shouldn’t need a thing. It’s a candid, heartfelt conversation where she also touches on the idea that we’re forever modeling for our children — even in midlife in terms of showing them that we can continue to flourish.
Our conversation also explores the vulnerable role of navigating aging parents and the concept of leaning into what they may need versus what we want. Kelly also generously recounts the recent loss of her mother and the invaluable lessons she taught her.
A few important mentions that we bring up during our conversation:

In this episode of The Midlife Truth Project podcast, hosts Julie Flakstad and Dr. Taz Bhatia sit down with Dr. Sharon Malone to discuss perimenopause and menopause, including why generations of women were left to suffer in silence, the now infamous Women's Health Initiative (WHI) Study and the resulting controversy regarding the use of hormonal therapy (HRT) and breast cancer. In this episode, we also discuss what’s happening to our bodies during the menopause transition, why women may feel like they’re ‘going crazy,’ common myths about HRT relative to symptom relief as well as the many long term health benefits including preventing cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and type 2 diabetes. The conversation also highlights a stark disparity in research funding, noting that less than 11% of the $45 billion in NIH research goes to women’s studies. Dr. Malone emphasizes the need for equitable access to quality healthcare for all women.
