About Midlife Rising

This is not just another midlife podcast about belly fat, Botox, or bone broth. We’re not here to help you stay young, offer makeup tips, or share recipes to sneak kale into your brownies. If you’re looking for hacks to stay small or “age gracefully,” this might not be the space for you. We’re here to burn down the old rulebook - and help you rise from the ashes. We unpack the invisible systems and internalized conditioning that keep midlife women stuck, over-functioning, and exhausted. We talk about the links between patriarchy, stress, and menopause symptoms. This is the conversation behind the conversation—raw, wise, and necessary. We’re Sheri and Jen - twin sisters, former “good-girls” turned paradigm-breakers, and your new favourite midlife truth-tellers. Our unfiltered conversations crack open the things women don’t say out loud. We’re here to offer you the tools, re-frames, and permission slips to finally stop performing and start becoming. Expect “why didn’t anyone tell me this sooner?!” kinds of insights, advice to nix your menopause symptoms without HRT, and paradigm-shifting “aha” moments that make you want to take your power back. So if you’re ready to stop performing, and rise into the woman you were always meant to be - pull up a chair. We saved you a seat.

Here's where your time pressure really comes from... If you're a woman over 40 who is always racing the clock, you've probably tried the day planners, the apps and the 5am club, and still felt behind.

   Why You Keep Circling the Life You Want (And Never Land It)

   You know what you want - the new career, the business, the trip, the relationship. So why do you keep circling it instead of landing it? Today, we break down why so many high-achieving women get stuck wanting to shift but not getting there. We unravel why the answer isn't more competence or strategy - it's actually becoming the person who has what you want. It's an identity shift. We unpack the fears and subconscious beliefs that keep women tied to an old version of themselves, share personal...

   51: The Cost of Making Menopause a "Medical" Issue

   We need to talk about something that's been irking us: menopause got turned into a diagnosis, and it's quietly keeping women out of leadership. Somehow menopause has become a medical problem to be fixed rather than a natural transition to be honored. It's the same thing that happens with puberty and childbirth - anytime a woman's body changes, we treat the discomfort as a disease instead of a signal. That belief shows up everywhere, not just in the doctor's office. Workplaces (and schoo...
