Tea With Sophie: Health, Confidence, & Vitality For Women Over 50
Tea With Sophie is a weekly show for women over 50 who want to feel like themselves again—strong, energized, clear, and deeply connected to who they are in this season of life.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by conflicting health advice… frustrated that what used to work no longer does… or quietly wondering, “Why don’t I feel like me anymore?”—you’re in the right place.
I’m Sophie Uliano, New York Times best-selling author, certified nutritionist, and mindset coach, and each week I’ll guide you through simple, powerful shifts across your body, your nervous system, and your identity—so you can age powerfully, without extremes, confusion, or burnout.
This isn’t about chasing perfection or following another rigid plan.
It’s about rebuilding self-trust, nourishing your body intelligently, and creating a version of you that feels radiant, grounded, and fully alive.
So make yourself a cup of tea… and let’s begin.

Ep. 5 - Feeling Stuck After 50? The Grief No One Talks About (And How to Move Through It)

Welcome back to Tea With Sophie.
Today, we’re talking about something that so many women experience but rarely name.
Feeling stuck. Flat. Disconnected. Like something has shifted—but you can’t quite explain it.
Often, this isn’t a lack of motivation. And it’s not something “wrong” with you.
It’s grief.
Not just the grief of obvious loss— but the quieter grief that comes with midlife:
- The loss of identity
- The loss of who you used to be
- The feeling of being untethered or uncertain
- The sense that something inside you has dimmed
In this episode, we explore:
- The two types of grief women carry in midlife
- How grief shows up physically, emotionally, and even in the gut
- Why so many women feel stuck, listless, or disconnected
- The importance of naming and feeling what’s actually there
- Simple ways to stay connected to life—even in difficult seasons
- And how to honor your grief without losing yourself inside it
Because grief is not something to rush or fix. But it does need to be acknowledged.
And when you learn how to meet it with compassion, it can become a doorway—not a dead end.
If you’re listening to this and thinking, “I feel stuck… and I’m not sure how to move forward,” please know—you don’t have to navigate this alone.
I offer a complimentary session that I call a Breakthrough Session, where we gently explore what’s going on and help you find your next step forward.

Be very gentle with yourself.
