Talk on to Walk on with Michelle Walters

About Talk on to Walk on with Michelle Walters

I am Michelle Walters, creator of “Talk on to Walk on”. In 2020, I stepped back from 30 years in the corporate world. I now know I had burn out. The global lockdown timing was fortuitous giving me permission to pause for longer than I thought I needed. And so began my healing process - a story I have still yet to fully share but, “Talk on to Walk on” was born and you hear glimpses of my story during my shared conversations throughout the podcast episodes. Be it by circumstance, habit or fear of judgment, we are all guilty of keeping true feelings and desires buried. As a result we then limit ourselves in the life we want to lead. “Talk on to Walk on” which has evolved into a coaching, mentoring and talks offer, is my way of addressing this. My husband, Patrick, an accomplished corporate leader, business and life mentor now joins me and you on our joint, life journeys. We met and changed our careers while navigating midlife. We are passionate about sharing our ongoing mindset lessons as well as inspirational life stories from guests who, through simple conversations and positive self talk, found the courage to ‘walk on’ to where they are today. We believe with the right mindset and courage to open up to the right people, there is no limit to what can be achieved, at any stage of life and this is our offer to you. Please do subscribe, rate and review. You are helping us to share our mindset messages, supporting our community and encouraging more people to share how they really feel and to take the steps towards their dreams. “Talk on to Walk on” supports Liverpool community causes and charities both financially and through our voluntary talks and flexible payment coaching offer. If you like what you hear and wish to take the smallest steps to create the life you really want, whatever your age, then please do connect with us. Press play now and let’s “Talk on to Walk on” together, and see where it leads... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy (https://acast.com/privacy) for more information.

   #48 Trailer for: Is It Scary To Be 60?

   Is It Scary to Be 60? Is turning 60 scary? Or is it actually a chance to look back, let go and look forward with a little more freedom? In this episode, we’re celebrating Patrick turning 60 although, in low-key fashion, there’s been no huge party or extravagant celebration! Instead, the highlight was a very special trip to Kenya where Patrick went to Pembroke House school from 8 - 13 and where some of his earliest memories were formed. We talk about how much our upbringing shapes who we become as adults, the expectations, habits and ways of thinking that stay with us for years. But we also explore the freedom that comes with getting older: learning to let go of some of those expectations, accepting that not everything has to be done the way it always was, and becoming more comfortable with who we truly are. There’s plenty of reminiscing, but importantly, no regrets. We talk about the value of looking back fondly while resisting the temptation to live in the past. After all, there’s still plenty to look forward to. We giggle about our new midlife identities. On safari in Kenya, we imagine ourselves as Meryl Streep and Robert Redford in Out of Africa… while back at home, we’re more like the midlife couple from The Good Life, happily pottering around the garden and allotment! And then there are the inevitable ailments that seem to become part of the conversation as we get older. We laugh about our various aches, pains and longer recovery times but also recognise how lucky we are to live in a time when many of these things can be treated and fixed, even if our bodies don't bounce back quite as quickly as they once did! Patrick also asks Michelle the question that perhaps matters most: how does she feel now that Patrick has turned 60? And Michelle gives him an honest answer… So, is it scary to be 60? Perhaps it’s less about the number and more about what you choose to do with it. Come and join us for a personal, funny and reflective conversation about getting older, growing wiser, letting go, remembering where we came from and being excited about what comes next. Because 60 might just be the beginning of the next adventure. Listen to "Talk on to Walk on" on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or watch on You Tube.

   #47 Trailer for: Are You Two Away Again?!

   Episode 47: Why We Travel And Why It's Never Too Late to Start Michelle and Patrick explore their shared love of travel, where their passion came from, and why midlife might actually be the perfect time to embrace adventure. From childhood sparks, Patrick's love of National Geographic magazines whilst growing up in Kenya, Michelle listening to her merchant navy uncle's tales around the Christmas table to their most recent adventures in Bali, Kenya, Rome, and Scotland, this episode is an honest, funny, and inspiring conversation about what travel really gives you. In this episode they cover: The difference between going on holiday and going on an adventure, and why both have their place How a love of travel often starts long before you can afford it and why your "inherited blueprint" matters Why imperfect trips make the best stories (a B&B that wasn't ready, wrong-way subway rides in New York, getting soaked in Scotland in January) The real benefits of travel: improved mental health, cognitive sharpness, social connection, and the confidence that comes from problem-solving on the go Why talking to locals, taxi drivers, waiters, shopkeepers is one of the richest things you can do anywhere in the world Their visit to Restart Africa, a children's charity in Kenya founded by Mary Coulson, which gave them a profound perspective shift Practical tips: don't over plan, build in rest, travel off-season, ignore the stereotypes, and crucially, "just book it" Why many midlifers value experiences over things, and why the post-COVID hunger to travel is entirely understandable The importance of staying fit and well so travel remains an opportunity for as long as possible Key takeaway: Get a map out. Write down where you've always wanted to go. Don't dismiss it. There will always be a reason not to go but if you do it, you won't regret it.
