The Right-Sized Life with Amy Schmidt
You've proven you're brave. You cannonballed into one chapter of your life and showed up fully — for your family, your career, your community, everyone who needed you. You did that. And it mattered.
Now you're asking a different question.
Not how do I do more? But does this still fit?
Welcome to The Right-Sized Life with Amy Schmidt — the podcast for women who are done maintaining the old life and ready to build the true one.
Every episode, Amy brings the honest conversation you've been waiting for — the one that sounds less like a self-help seminar and more like a glass of wine with your wisest friend. Real stories. Practical frameworks. Permission to let go of what no longer fits and make room for what actually does.
Because a right-sized life isn't about having less.
It's about having what fits — so when the moments that matter arrive, you are actually there for them.
Amy Schmidt is the founder of Fearlessly Facing Fifty, bestselling author of CANNONBALL! Fearlessly Facing Midlife and Beyond and the forthcoming The Right-Sized Life, TEDx speaker, and one of the most trusted voices in midlife women's media.
Go forth and live aligned. 🤍

EP 82: Don't get in your own way. A conversation with Molly Fay
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How often do we get stuck because we can't get out of our own way? Or we get stopped in fear because stress and anxiety are part of our cadence? A wise friend once said, "We can have it all....just not all at once."
In today's episode I have a conversation with the incredible Molly Fay. Molly is the Co-Host of TMJ4 The Morning Blend. My path crossed with Molly last year, and we became fast friends. Her story is inspiring, and she admits that she doesn't always have it all together, but she has learned over time to make herself a priority. Molly shares her insight and wisdom in an episode you don't want to miss. Being on TV comes with challenges, but when fear comes up, she gets out her toolkit for self-care which she will talk about in the episode.
Being on TV comes with challenges, but when fear comes up, she gets out her toolkit for self-care which she will talk about in the episode. Managing work/life balance and being a good Mom, wife, steward of her faith and friend are top of her list, and she will discuss ways in which she works hard to do her very best but allows herself the gift of grace when things don’t go just right.
Chicago native Molly Fay didn't expect to host a talk show. But the former investigative journalist, mother of three and self-described introvert, found herself doing just that eight years ago when WTMJ-4 launched "The Morning Blend," and she hasn't looked back. You can find Molly and her Co-Host, Tiffany here which streams daily.
