| 6/25/26 | ![]() EP #465: Wanting Something Just Because: You Don't Need a Reason to Want What You Want | You don't need a reason to want what you want. You don't need to earn it, justify it, or prove that it solves a problem or serves someone else. You are allowed to want something just because it makes you happy, just because it brings you joy, just because it's yours. That sounds simple. But after more than a decade of coaching midlife women, Suzy knows it's one of the hardest things to actually practice. In this episode, Suzy revisits the Permission to Want theme from Episode 436 but takes it somewhere new. Instead of focusing on the big, sweeping case for permission, this show is about what permission actually looks like in the small, everyday moments. Learn more here! | — | ||||||
| 6/18/26 | ![]() EP #464: Forks in the Road: When Fear Has Been Making Your Decisions | Most of us know what a fork in the road feels like. You've got a heavy decision to make. There are at least two possible paths. And when you're at the fork, you know it's time to choose which way to go and that you will have to live with your choice. What can be so surprising is how often fear has been driving the decision-making over the years. Not us. Fear. Dressed up as reason, responsibility, and common sense. In this episode, Suzy revisits the Forks in the Road concept from Episode 335 but takes it somewhere much deeper. She shares a personal realization she had recently about her own 1982 fork in the road, when she was accepted into a university program in the Caribbean and turned it down. She'd told that story before. But this time, she finally connected it to experiences from earlier in her life that explained, clearly and with compassion, why that fear made complete sense at the time…and as an older and wiser woman over 40 years later, why it may no longer apply to the woman she is now.

| 6/11/26 | ![]() EP #463: Envy for Good: The Unexpected Tool for Figuring Out What You Really Want | Did you know you can use envy for good? Envy is one of those emotions most of us were taught to push down, feel ashamed of, and definitely not admit to out loud. But what if envy is actually one of the most useful tools you have access to right now, especially in your 50s and 60s, especially when you're trying to figure out what you actually want? In this episode, I'm making the case for "Envy for Good™" and I'm doing it with more conviction than ever, because I experienced it myself this week. Learn more here! | — | ||||||
| 6/4/26 | ![]() EP #462: Empty Nest Joyride After Family Crisis with Linda Hanstra | This episode is about how a family crisis can lead to an "empty nest joyride" and insights into your passion to be a writer. Sometimes you can be surprised by the amount of insight gained from a difficult period in your life. Your empty nest phase can be surprisingly mighty. My guest today is Linda Hanstra. Linda is someone who went from being a working mother with four busy kids who felt like she had no time for herself or her passions, to a semi-retired empty nester with more time and more freedom.

| 5/28/26 | ![]() EP #461: Queen of your Brain Domain - The Midlife Upgrade | Over five years ago, I introduced a concept that has been at the heart of the Women in the Middle show ever since: being the Queen of Your Brain Domain. For women over 50 who want to stop living on autopilot and start living with more intention, that original episode was about learning to watch your thoughts, think on purpose, and take responsibility for your feelings and results. That foundation still holds. My understanding of what it really means to lead your life has grown and this episode is the upgrade. Building on the conversations from earlier episodes, Episode 461 takes the concept somewhere deeper. We're talking about shifting from managing your thoughts to actually experiencing your life while you're living it. With real, personal stories about a garden snake, tap-dancing tapioca, a pair of new sneakers, and a quiet morning with my dog, I bring the framework to life in a way that is warm, honest, and genuinely moving. Please enjoy this interview! Learn more here. | — | ||||||
| 5/21/26 | ![]() EP #460: How Your Past Can Inspire Your Customized Retirement with Suzanne Albanese | Are you ready to discover how you can use your past to inspire your customized retirement?

My guest is Suzanne Albanese. Suzanne came from a large family in rural Virginia. She went to college at Virginia Tech, where she met her husband. She worked in the furniture world, had a son, and earned her MBA from Averett University. Learn more here! | — | ||||||
| 5/14/26 | ![]() EP #459: When You Feel Stuck in Midlife (Even When Your Life Looks Fine) | This episode is about when you feel stuck in midlife even though everything looks fine. If you've been feeling stuck, unclear, or just slightly off lately…today's show will help you understand why. Feeling this way at this time in your life is common. But, what many women don't realize, especially when you're over 50 is this: It's probably not a clarity problem. Learn more HERE | — | ||||||

| 2/12/26 | ![]() EP #446: Awe, Wonder and the Joy of Life in the Slow Lane in Midlife | In this episode, Suzy reflects on what a recent Costa Rica retreat revealed about slowing down, presence, and the importance of awe and wonder in midlife. Many midlife women are highly capable, productive, and constantly managing full lives, yet feel restless, rushed, and disconnected. This conversation explores why awe doesn't arrive through effort or productivity, but through attention and noticing.

| 1/8/26 | ![]() EP #441: What Your Bucket List Wants You to Know (Before You Do Anything About It) | What if your bucket list isn't a list at all? What if it's a voice—your future self—quietly trying to get your attention? In this episode of Women in the Middle, we take the pressure off the idea of a bucket list and explore it in a completely different way. Instead of treating it like a to-do list or a set of goals, we imagine what your bucket list might say to you if it could talk—about the dreams you've postponed, the ways you've put yourself last, and what still matters as time starts to feel different in midlife.
