Midlife Advice | Perimenopause, Hormones and Midlife Women’s Health
You're a woman over 40, you're in the thick of perimenopause or menopause, and lately you keep coming back to the same thought: I just don't feel like myself anymore.
You're doing everything right. Showing up for your family, your work, everyone who needs you. But you feel exhausted in a way that sleep doesn't fix. Work feels harder and less fulfilling than it used to. Your relationship feels distant. Your body is changing. You’re overwhelmed with the neverending decisions. And no matter what you do, you just feel off. Disconnected from yourself.
Midlife Advice is the podcast for intelligent midlife women who are ready to stop white-knuckling through life and feel next-level good.
Each week, host Jessica Long brings you honest conversations about navigating perimenopause and menopause, hormones, overwhelm, relationships, confidence, and the identity shift nobody warned you was coming. Not as a patient. Not as a problem to be solved. As a woman who deserves to actually feel GREAT again.
Jessica is a holistic health coach, certified menopause coaching specialist, breathwork facilitator and fellow midlife woman navigating all of this right alongside you.

- Why am I so exhausted all the time?
- Why does work feel so hard lately?
- Why do I feel so disconnected from my partner?
- Why do I have low libido and will it ever come back?
- Why don't I feel like myself anymore?
- Is this perimenopause or something else?
This podcast was made for you.

65: How to Declutter Your Home When You’re Overwhelmed (Without Doing Everything at Once)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If your house feels cluttered but the thought of tackling it sounds like pure torture, this 15-minute daily habit might just change your mind and your approach.
A lot of midlife women are craving a calmer home—but between work, kids, relationships, and the general mental load of life, the idea of decluttering the whole house can feel like standing at the base of Mount Everest.
In this episode, Jessica talks with organizing coach Tracy Hoth about a much more realistic approach: a 15-minute daily decluttering habit. Instead of waiting for the mythical “free weekend” to finally get organized, Tracy teaches women how to make steady progress in small, doable increments.
She shares the five simple steps she’s been teaching for over 17 years—sort, purge, assign homes, contain, and energize—and explains why clutter isn’t just a visual annoyance. It can quietly drain your energy, raise stress levels, and even create friction in your relationships at home.
If you’ve ever looked around your house and thought, Where do I even start? this conversation will give you a simple place to begin.
