What if midlife wasn’t a crisis — but a calling?

In this heart-opening episode, I’m joined by educator, speaker, and midlife mentor Denise Drinkwalter, who brings over 30 years of lived and professional wisdom to the conversation. Together, we explore what it means to stop waiting for permission and finally choose yourself — not just in theory, but in practice.

We talk about:

Why women feel rage in midlife (and how to honour it)

The invisible labour of motherhood and caregiving

The power of embodied decisions: “for you, by you, because of you”

Redefining happiness beyond external approval

How to model joy and sovereignty for the next generation

Denise’s energy is warm, wise, and radically empowering — and this episode is an invitation to re-meet yourself with grace, softness, and truth.

What does it mean to awaken — not just spiritually, but politically, emotionally, and bodily?

In this bold and unfiltered conversation, I sit down with Rachel and Nasreen, the co-creators of Women Are the Medicine, to explore what happens when women begin to listen to the wisdom of their bodies and refuse to keep playing by the rules of systems that were never made for us.

Together, we talk about:

Awakening from patriarchy, burnout, and people-pleasing

Learning to trust the body — cycles, triggers, truth-telling

Plant medicine, nervous system healing, and soul-aligned risk

Rebellion, rupture, and returning to joy

The vision for a new way of living, loving, and leading

This is the kind of conversation that moves like fire and lands like medicine.

✨ For the woman who knows: she is no longer available for self-abandonment.

What happens when a woman finally steps across the threshold of self-abandonment… and chooses herself?

In this rich and resonant conversation, I’m joined by writer, healing coach, and creative force Marcy Neumann — who brings more than 50 years of hard-won wisdom to the table.

Together, we explore what it truly means to cross the sacred threshold into self-love, especially after years (or decades) of people-pleasing, performing strength, and putting others first.

Marcy shares with honesty and grace:

The difference between self-care and true self-love

How our bodies signal when we’ve been betraying our truth

What it means to mother without martyrdom

Why courage doesn’t always feel brave, but always leads us home

Whether you’re navigating your own turning point, or simply longing for deeper alignment, this episode is an invitation to remember that you are allowed to choose you.

Crossing that threshold is not selfish — it’s sacred.
