Midlife Unplugged TV Show
Hosted by Lara Portelli, award-winning author, menopause and divorce mentor, and midlife rebel with a mic, this show is raw, real, and radically honest. It’s for those who’ve hit 40+ and decided they’re done playing small, done people-pleasing, and done following the damn rules.
On Midlife Unplugged, we rip off the masks and speak truth. From body changes to identity crises, breakups to reinventions, hot flashes to bold career pivots... nothing is off limits.
We have bodacious, unapologetic, purpose-driven guests who are ready to share their story with unfiltered honesty. If you’ve walked through fire, flipped the script, and found your power in the second act of life, this channel is for you!
This is your space to show up, swear if you need to, and inspire others with your truth.
Welcome to the F**K it years.
Let’s talk.

E2: Daniel Lloyd — Stand for And: From Addiction to a TEDx stage, the power of honour and connection
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Daniel Lloyd didn’t plan on changing his life—life forced his hand.
In this episode of Midlife Unplugged, Lara Portelli invites Daniel to share the painful turning point that followed addiction, chaos, and the murder of his closest friend. What came next was unexpected: detox, distance, and a promise that led him to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro.
That moment became the foundation for everything Daniel now stands for—creating a groundbreaking recovery program, speaking on the TEDx stage, and advocating for those who feel invisible. As he says, connection is everything.
