EP 130: Permission for the “ugly cry” is granted. “midlife mom” mixed with “empty nest” or “half empty nest”, omg! Get ready for a new solo mini-sode where I get into everything empty nest (half empty nest) and “teen son” as I call him is now “college son”. He just left for his sophomore year of college. I’m heading into my second “year of lasts” (last prom, last SAT, last college apps) with “teen daughter”, finishing her last year of high school and I’m trying to stay present for all of it, “hard and good” as I say!
I am digging deep with all of you into my personal journey through the “ugh’s and fabulosities” of parenting in midlife and the transition to an empty nest. I’m still a “half empty nester”. I know you’re feeling it too and I’m here to remind you that you are not alone. Parenting sh** mixed with new feelings of feeling irrelevant. Woosh! When we enter an “empty nest” era, our mom duties change from “mangager to consultant” and the need for self-reflection, personal growth and humor is necessary. Getting real with you, per usual. Today, I am giving you practical golden nuggets for navigating this experience!

10 Things To Age Powerfully In Midlife
Are you a midlife woman who is being flooded with information on social media regarding all things health and longevity? I am! Do the infrared sauna, stand on your head, go to f*king yoga, sweat your balls off, jump in a cold plunge, eat this, don’t eat that, the list goes on...
In this episode we are getting to the bottom of all this information with an amazing midlife health expert. You won’t want to miss it.
In this episode I’m joined by cleanse, wellness and overall transformational expert Elissa Goodman. She is a holistic nutritionist with a list of celebrity clientele and today I am asking her about midlife health tools, and all the things we see on instagram and think... should I try that?
Our first conversation Thriving, Not Just Surviving... Cleansing, Juicing & Transforming With Elissa Goodman took place during Covid in the early stages of my podcast. It was so fun to meet in person for this midlife chat and of course it’s available on youtube, so make sure to check it out there!
Looking forward to connecting with you! Here are some ways to connect with me!
