Message in the Middle: Midlife Women, Reinvention & Personal Growth
Message in the Middle is a podcast for women navigating the challenges, transitions, and reinventions that often come with midlife.
Hosted by Marianne DeMello-Smith, each episode explores the messy, meaningful moments that shape who we become. Through honest conversations with experts, authors, thought leaders, and everyday women, you'll discover practical insights, inspiring stories, and new perspectives on what it means to grow through life's most difficult seasons.
Whether you're facing a career change, caregiving responsibilities, health challenges, grief, relationship shifts, menopause, identity changes, or simply wondering what's next, Message in the Middle offers encouragement, wisdom, and real-world strategies to help you move forward with greater confidence and purpose.
Together, we'll explore resilience, personal growth, self-discovery, emotional well-being, and the power of turning life's messes into meaningful midlife messages.
Because midlife isn't the end of your story. It may just be the beginning of your next chapter.

Give Yourself Permission to Do What's Right for You During the Holidays - A Discussion with Victoria Longo
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode I continue the discussion around managing and preparing for the holidays. My guest and I discuss:
- Setting healthy boundaries during the holidays
- Learning to listen to your intuition
- Giving yourself permission to do what's right for you vs what others expect
In this episode my guest is Victoria Longo, an internationally known psychic/medium, energy healer and yoga instructor. She spent her childhood immersed in the 'woo' since it was common for her mother to see dead people. As she aged however, Victoria buried all that wild, wacky and weird stuff deep, deep down and did her best to fit into societal expectations. It wasn't until she quite literally lost everything, after spending years in misery, that she dug up all those buried interests and realized that reconnecting with the woo allowed her to step into her own gifts and finally find her happily ever after.
