| 6/4/26 |  Burnout, Body Wisdom & The Midlife Rebellion with Maria Angelova | What if exhaustion isn't the price of success? This week on Transforming 45, Lisa sits down with Maria Angelova, creator of the Angelova Method, fitness professional, former corporate leader, and passionate advocate for helping people reconnect with their bodies. After years of pushing through stress, sleeplessness, anxiety, and burnout, Maria experienced a series of wake-up calls that forced her to question everything she thought she knew about achievement, productivity, and wellness. Together, Lisa and Maria explore: ✔ Why so many high-achieving women mistake burnout for success ✔ The hidden ways stress shows up in the body ✔ How perimenopause invites us to rethink our priorities ✔ The connection between movement, emotions, and nervous system regulation ✔ Why self-awareness is the foundation of healing ✔ Small daily practices that create profound change ✔ The role of rebellion in becoming your authentic self ✔ How to stop living on autopilot and start living intentionally Memorable Takeaways: Your body is not working against you. The symptoms, tension, exhaustion, and emotional overwhelm many women experience are often signals pointing toward what needs attention, healing, and change. Midlife isn't the end of your story. It may be the first time you're finally writing it for yourself.

| 5/14/26 |  We Are Not Falling Apart: The Truth About Midlife Identity, Relationships & Letting Go with Angela Burk | What if nothing is going wrong… but everything is changing? In this deeply honest and unfiltered conversation, Lisa sits down with Angela Burk—author, marketing strategist, and self-proclaimed midlife hell-raiser—to talk about what it actually feels like to move through midlife. From confronting the mirror to redefining relationships, navigating shifting identities, and parenting adult children, this episode names the things so many women feel—but struggle to articulate. This is a conversation about grief, growth, desire, partnership, and the quiet (and not-so-quiet) realization that you are no longer who you used to be. And maybe… that’s the point. In this episode, we explore: Why midlife can feel so confronting—and why that matters The identity shift no one prepares you for How relationships evolve (and strain) in this phase What changes in partnership, intimacy, and communication Parenting adult children and the grief no one talks about The power of saying what you need—out loud Why you’re not falling apart… you’re becoming About Angela Burk: Angela Burk is a writer, marketing strategist, and author of Real Girl’s Guide to Midlife. She is a fierce advocate for women reclaiming their stories and building bold, unapologetic lives in midlife. A mom of seven in a beautifully blended family, Angela splits her time between California and Australia.

| 2/12/26 |  Sexy, Smart & In Control: Birth Control Without the BS with Saundra Pelletier | What if birth control didn’t come with daily hormones, side effects, or shame — and instead supported pleasure, autonomy, and confidence? This week Lisa welcomes Saundra Pelletier, CEO of Evofem Biosciences and the force behind Phexxi, the first hormone-free, on-demand prescription birth control. Together they explore the intersection of sexual health, empowerment, midlife identity, and why women deserve both protection and pleasure. This conversation moves beyond fear-based messaging into joy, agency, and informed choice — especially for women navigating perimenopause, postpartum years, or simply wanting an alternative to long-term synthetic hormones. What We Talk About Why traditional hormonal birth control may impact libido, mood, and identity The concept of a “Hormone Holiday” Perimenopause + still needing pregnancy protection Why women are conditioned to live with discomfort Teaching sons empathy and body literacy Pleasure as a revolutionary act Empowerment vs. fear-based sexual health messaging Reclaiming desire and confidence after 40 Key Takeaways You deserve options that align with your body and your life stage. Birth control does not need to equal daily medication. Sexual pleasure is not shameful — it is information, agency, and identity. Men want language and permission to participate in these conversations. Midlife is not the end of sexuality — it can be the beginning of intentional sexuality. Guest: Saundra Pelletier CEO of Evofem Biosciences, advocate for women’s reproductive health, and mission-driven leader bringing hormone-free contraceptive options into mainstream conversation.

| 2/5/26 |  From “Is This Normal?” to “I Deserve Better” — A New Menopause Narrative with Shirley Weir | In this powerful conversation, Lisa sits down with Shirley Weir, founder of Menopause Chicks, to unpack what women truly need during perimenopause and menopause — not just hormone information, but clarity, critical thinking, and permission to advocate for themselves. They explore why so many women ask “Is this normal?”, how workplace stress and caregiving intersect with hormonal change, and why menopause is not something to “fix” but a transition that invites us to meet ourselves honestly and compassionately. What You’ll Learn: Why menopause hormone therapy is important — and not the whole story How to identify root causes (sleep, stress, cortisol, iron, burnout, identity shifts) The danger of normalizing women’s suffering Why informed decision-making is empowerment How menopause exposes systemic issues in workplaces Why midlife is a time to reclaim voice, agency, and worth How to stop “powering through” and start advocating Why you are the center of your healthcare team Key Topics: Perimenopause • Menopause hormone therapy • Insomnia • Cortisol & stress cycles • Bone health • Workplace advocacy • Women’s health literacy • Identity in midlife • Canadian menopause education • Critical thinking in healthcare • Menopause policy & leadership • Gen X women’s health About Shirley Weir: Shirley Weir is the founder of Menopause Chicks, one of Canada’s most trusted, evidence-informed menopause education platforms.

| 1/29/26 |  The 97% You’re Not Aware Of: Healing Your Subconscious in Midlife with Krishna Avalon | In this powerful midlife conversation, Lisa Boate sits down with healer and subconscious-mind expert Krishna Avalon to explore how women can reconnect with their inner compass, regulate their nervous systems, and stop abandoning themselves in midlife, parenting, and perimenopause. They unpack the difference between the conscious and subconscious mind, why 95% of our patterns live beneath awareness, and how trauma, boundaries, and sensory processing shape how we experience relationships, menopause, and the world. What You’ll Learn Why the subconscious mind drives 95–97% of your behavior and emotional responses How to stop people-pleasing and set boundaries without guilt Why perimenopause can feel like puberty in reverse—and why you deserve real support How highly sensitive, empathic women can stop carrying everyone else’s emotions Practical tools: breathwork, binaural beats, visualization, vision boards, and nervous-system regulation How parenting teens and young adults triggers identity shifts and abandonment wounds Why healing doesn’t have to be hard, and how safety in your body changes everything Key Themes: Subconscious reprogramming • Nervous system regulation • Midlife identity • Perimenopause brain fog • Boundaries • Empathy without self-abandonment • Parenting transitions • Somatic healing • Psych-K • Acupuncture • Internal Family Systems • Trauma-informed self-trust About Krishna Avalon: Krishna Avalon is a licensed acupuncturist, Psych-K facilitator, Reiki master, IFS practitioner, breathwork guide, and spiritual teacher who helps people transform subconscious patterns and reconnect with their inner safety and truth.

| 1/22/26 |  Finding “Enough” in a World Obsessed With More with Hussein Halleck | In this episode of Transforming 45, Lisa Boate sits down with Hussein Halleck, a Syrian-born Canadian whose life journey spans cultures, identities, and profound inner work. Together they explore authenticity, modern parenting, mental health in the age of acceleration, and what it truly means to define “enough” on your own terms. This is a conversation about navigating uncertainty, mastering the inner game of life, and learning to live with compassion in a world that never slows down. Takeaways: Authenticity and identity across cultures Parenting in an era of rapid social and technological change Mental health, nervous system overload, and modern life Redefining success and choosing “enough” Life mastery as an internal practice, not an external achievement Embracing uncertainty and the “dark arts” of self-discovery “Enough” is a personal choice, not a societal benchmark. Parenting is a co-evolution, not a one-way teaching role. Today’s children face emotional and systemic pressures unlike any previous generation. Technology accelerates life — and challenges our nervous systems and relationships. Understanding personal, community, and systemic domains helps us orient in complexity. True mastery is about inner alignment, not outer control. Compassion for self is essential in uncertain seasons of life. Embracing mystery can be a powerful path to growth and resilience. Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Hussein Halleck 02:06 Hussein's Early Life and Background 06:20 Parenting and the Concept of Being a 'Clueless Father' 09:37 The Acceleration of Change in Modern Life 20:40 Navigating Personal, Community, and Systemic Domains 27:04 Understanding 'Enough' and Internal Choices 41:51 The Dark Arts of Life's Mastery Why This Episode Matters: If you’re navigating midlife, leadership, parenting teens or young adults, or simply questioning how to live well in a fast-moving world, this conversation offers grounded wisdom and permission to define success on your own term Let’s Stay Connected: Website Instagram Facebook Facebook Group Got questions or feedback?
