School of Midlife
This is the podcast for high-achieving women in midlife who want to make midlife their best life.
Women who have worked their entire lives, whether that’s in a traditional career or as the CEO of their household, or for many women, both. And they look around at their life in midlife, and think “I’ve worked my ass off for this?”
They have everything they always thought they ever wanted, but for some reason, it feels like something is missing.
This is the podcast for midlife women who are experiencing all sorts of physical changes in their bodies, while navigating changes in every other part of their lives, too: friendships, family life, work life.
This is the podcast for midlife women who find themselves wide-awake at 2.00am, asking themselves big questions like “what do I want?” “is it too late for me?”, and “what’s my legacy beyond my family and my work?”
Each week, we’re answering these questions and more at the School of Midlife.
When it comes to midlife, there are a lot of people talking about menopause and having a midlife crisis. This isn’t one of those podcasts. While we may occasionally talk about the menopausal transition, but that’s not our focus. Because we believe that midlife is so much more than menopause. And it’s certainly not a crisis.
At the School of Midlife, we’re looking to make midlife our best life.

The real reason you don't feel like yourself in midlife...after "fixing" your midlife body.
You’ve done the work to address the physical symptoms of midlife: balanced your hormones, changed your eating, added strength training. And you still don't feel like yourself in midlife.
And there's a reason for that. The real work of midlife? That's an inside job.
In this bonus episode of the School of Midlife podcast, Laurie is dropping us into a recent masterclass to encourage midlife women stop waiting and start living. Laurie shares her own story of rising out of a moment of deep personal and professional frustration to create what became The School of Midlife. And she names the real reason we get stuck again after the first breakthrough: we need structure, support, and community to keep going.
If you’ve taken a few big steps but don’t know what’s next—or you’re afraid you’ll lose the progress you’ve made—this one’s for you.
