  • E45: Perimenopause is a Portal

    Perimenopause is the gateway. It's a portal. It's the portal between your old self and your new self.

    And you have to walk through fire to get there.  It's a transformation. There's a reason why they call it "the change". Because it changes you in every way. Spiritually. Emotionally,  physically,  intellectually. It's a total repurposing of your soul. I have been massively transformed in the last decade. I don't see anything the same way that I did in my 30s. I don't look the same. I don't feel the same and I don't act the same.  Perimenopause will transform you from the inside out. You have to walk through fire to get through the initiation. But what's on the other side is worth it. Trust me.

  • E43: OMG WTF is Happening To My Face ??? Confronting The Stranger In The Mirror

    When you get to "a certain age" you may be startled when you see yourself in the mirror. One of the things there is so little discussion around is the overall strangeness of aging-and how sometimes your sense of self gets pulled out from under you. More often than not, when I see myself these days, I have a little startle. Is that me ? Me with the crowfeet ? The furrowed brow ? The under eye bags ? The spare tire ? That old lady couldn't possible be ME ? When did this happen ? It takes a lot of work and a mindset shift to accept our bodies as they inevitably change-no amount of diet/exercise/good habits/injectables or plastic surgery can stop the mark of time. So it's time to accept. And maybe have a little fun.

  • E42: The Great Escape: Ditching Corporate In Midlife

    A year ago, I voluntarily participated in a corporate lay off and ditched my 8-5 for good. I had been at that safe, secure, and (boring) job for almost a decade. It's been scary, challenging but......... ultimately rewarding. Somedays I'm in flow, building my business. Other days, I'm stuck in a panicked spin cycle. Choosing myself has been a big adventure and a huge lesson. 

    Do you dream of leaving your corporate job but need help getting out of your own way ? Email me at [email protected] and let's get you unstuck.

  • E41: The Queen Of The Crone Age A Conversation with Kit Messick

    Kit Messick is an archivist, horse enthusiast, and world traveling adventurer. She and I met in the early 90s while gogo-ing in some of NYC's biggest nightclubs. We have bonded over the years on our mutual love of goth/industrial and alternative music, alternative spirituality and the our love for The Coney Island Mermaid Parade. I invited Kit on because she is, like me, a woman who has lived an unconventional life of her own creation. 

    She prefers that you do NOT follow her on social media. Kit says "go read a book"

  • E40: I No Longer Identify As Young

    Baffled by youth culture ? Not understanding "the kids" ? Still under the impression that it's 1998 ? Not knowing when this happened to YOU ? You are not alone ! This week, I'm musing on fully accepting and maybe even embracing that I am wholeheartedly middle aged. 

    ..............It's okay. I'd rather know that I'll be doing chair yoga to Duran Duran when I'm 85 rather than to whatever a Dojo Cat is. 

    warning: this episode contains content that will make you cynical.
