Like all transitions, midlife can be messy and sad and glorious all at once, leaving many midlife women feeling rather alone and somewhat invisible. But what does this transition we are experiencing lead to?
I'm here to remind you that if we manage our health and embrace it, growing older can lead to one of the greatest periods of growth and transformation of our lives.
I'm Jo Blackwell, a photographer, author and coach for women who want more from their lives post 50. This podcast is part of my business, The Midlife Movement, on a mission to make the midlife transition easier through coaching, information and community.
My aim is to help women step into a starring role in their own lives - whatever that means to you. The Midlife Movement was created to change minds about midlife and growing older, one story at a time. Because we only become invisible when when we stop seeing ourselves.

Healing the Motherline
20 GIU 2024 · How is your relationship with your mother?
This week, I’m talking to psychologist, Vanessa Wallace about her program, “Healing the Mother line.”
Vanessa explains how growing up in a dysfunctional relationship with our mothers can cause us to adopt behaviours such as people pleasing and “good girl” syndrome, or carry deep seated anger and resentment which we then pass on to the next generation.
We talk about inherited beliefs and self acceptance as a better goal than self esteem. And how by letting go of resentment and anger we can break the chain.

Billy Lahr's Mindful Midlife Journey
15 GIU 2024 · We all deal with anxiety in different ways - for this week’s guest, Mindfulness was a life saver.
https://www.mindfulmidlifecrisis.com/ is an intentional living and mindfulness coach, certified personal trainer, former educator, and serial overthinker. Billy is also the host of http://www.mindfulmidlifecrisis.com/, a podcast for people navigating the complexities and possibilities of life’s second half. Billy spent 21 years as an educator but experienced burnout due to budding mental health concerns, social media harassment from students, and a lack of job satisfaction. In 2021, Billy left his job as dean of students in order to travel the world in search of meaningful experiences and community. Since then, he’s been a GPS for those seeking purpose and passion by helping them identify strengths, explore curiosities, synergize with their crew, and cultivate consistency, discipline, patience, and self-compassion.
In this conversation, Billy talks about his experience of anxiety and overcoming it, traveling, and why finding your curiosity, your strengths and needs and your community is far more valuable to finding your purpose than “finding your passion”. Passion is something you discover as a by product of purpose rather than an end in itself.

The Time of her Life - a Novel
6 GIU 2024 · Imagine suddenly losing everything you’ve built up in the first half of your life - marriage, friendship, mother role, home - at one fell swoop.That’s what happened to the protagonist in novelist, Tracy Bloom’s latest romantic comedy, “The Time of her Life.”
This week, I’m talking to Tracy about infidelity, empty nests and some more of life’s fickle twists and turns. Having time in midlife to think about what we want from our lives now we no longer have to put others first, we talked about the Happiness Curve and how losing people we love makes us determined to live life to the full and to let go of some of the stress and striving.
Writing is Tracy’s second career and she describes how, over 13 books, her characters have grown up with her, reflecting her life and interests now. We also talk about how fairytales taught us that “happily ever after” always involved a woman finding a man to love her, and just how over that old trope we are!

Use your Head to Save your Brain with Mitch Clionsky
31 MAG 2024 · Dementia affects most of us one way or another, whether caring for parents or worrying about our own health and future. Today’s guest, neuropsychologist, Dr Mitchell Clionsky, talks to Jo about the latest research, reasons for hope and what we can do to decrease our risk.
Key takeaways:
Surprising facts about dementia: 50% of dementias are preventable and less than 5% of dementias are genetically caused.
There are no “dementiaologists”
Childhood trauma can play a role in dementia risk
Higher Education can have a protective effect on the brain
Midlife medical conditions increase risk, especially:
-
- Hypertension
- Diabetes
- lack of exercise
- sleep apnea
- hearing loss
- depression
- stress
There is a link between sleep apnea and
-
- gout
- erectile dysfunction
- frequent night peeing
- alcohol consumption - 3 or more drinks per night is considered dangerous, binge-drinking more so
You can buy Dr Clionsky’s book, co-written with his wife, Emily Clionsky MD, here: https://amzn.to/3KK5pZ3n (Johns Hopkins Press)

EMILY CLIONSKY, MD, completed residencies in internal medicine and in psychiatry, and is a diplomate of the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology.
MITCHELL CLIONSKY, PhD, is a board-certified neuropsychologist who specializes in evaluating and treating patients with cognitive impairment, dementia, ADHD, and traumatic brain injury.

Win at Life with Wild Water Swimming! with Melina Abbott
23 MAG 2024 · Melina Abbott says that wild swimming, especially in the cold of winter, gives you so much more than a momentary thrill: “In menopause, you do start to feel more anxious. You start to feel more afraid, but by doing something crazy, like plunging yourself in freezing cold water, it gives you confidence because you think, wow, I did something really hard. So when I come out, especially if I've not wanted to go in, I come out and go, yay, I did a hard thing. And then I know that I can apply that in every area of my life.” The benefits of cold water swimming include:
- increasing immunity
- reducing stress
- improving mood
- being good for anxiety and depression
- improving circulation
- decreasing inflammation
- and improving libido
