Take A Breath
A podcast for creating practical calm in the messy middle of midlife.
This is your space to pause.
Because life in midlife is full-on. Between work, family, menopause, and the mental load, your nervous system can easily end up in constant overdrive — leaving you feeling exhausted, reactive, and overwhelmed by even the smallest things.
Each week, I’ll share my own tools, alongside honest conversations and practical nervous system support — to help you create more calm, peace, joy, and inner steadiness. Not by escaping your life, because that’s totally unrealistic, but by meeting it differently.
So when you're ready, let’s take a breath together…

5 Ways to Ease The Midlife Emotional Load
Midlife can feel like a constant juggling act — from perimenopause to parenting, ageing parents to career demands, all while managing the invisible emotional and mental load that us midlife women know all to well.
In this episode, I share 5 simple, science-backed ways to ease the emotional weight you’re carrying — so you can feel calmer, more connected, and more like you again.
✨ Here’s what you’ll learn:
- How starting your day with just a few intentional minutes can change the energy of your entire day
- Why gratitude isn’t just about positive thinking — and how it actually supports your nervous system
- A tiny language shift that can reduce stress and give you back a sense of agency
- Why building awareness is the most powerful skill for calming a chaotic mind
- How to quickly shift your state (and stop overthinking) — especially in moments of overwhelm
This episode is packed with practical tools for busy midlife women carrying it all.
