I Don't Think We Talk Enough About...
Episode 83 | Midlife and Identity (with Lorraine Candy & Trish Halpin)

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Lorraine Candy and Trish Halpin - who, between them, have edited nearly all the magazines we’ve grown up with and loved, and are now the voices behind the podcast Postcards from Midlife.
Together, we have a really honest, open conversation about identity in midlife - the unraveling, the quiet grief, the guilt, and that pull so many of us feel to start choosing ourselves again. We talk about parenting, the way we’ve changed, and how to cope with empty-nesting - oh and whether we can really ever be friends with our children
This isn’t about glossy reinvention or having it all figured out. It’s about the raw and messy, very human experience of changing - while still holding everything you’ve been.
If you’ve been feeling a bit lost, stretched, or like your life doesn’t quite fit the way it used to - I think this one will speak to you.
