Dear Midlife (2025)

17/03/2025

🚨 “It takes 90 seconds to take your conscious mind to subconscious and for your nervous system to rewire and reset. 90 SECONDS to shift your entire reality. But here’s the catch—you have to actually sit with yourself.” 🚨

How often do we actually do that? How often do we pause long enough, reflect, dream, or process our emotions instead of enduring the endless hustle and distractions of life?

This week on Dear Midlife , we’re sitting down with the powerhouse Jaime Pallotolo—Energetic Master, Soul Activator, and Shamanic Healer—who is about to flip everything you think you know about success, manifestation, and breaking through your biggest blocks.

💥 Six-figure months?
💥 Viral TED Talks?
💥 NYT bestsellers?
💥 Calling in soulmate love and next-level abundance?

Jaime helps women do it all—without burnout, without over-sacrificing, and without playing small. Because let’s be real, wealth, success, and happiness should feel GOOD—not like punishment.

In this episode, we’re diving into:
🔥 Why your hustle might actually be blocking your success
🔥 How trauma (yes, even the “small” stuff) keeps you stuck—and how to release it
🔥 The secret to manifesting with ease, pleasure, and energetic alignment

If you’re done with the grind and ready to step into your most powerful, abundant self—this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.

🔥 Feeling Stuck, Burned Out & Wondering WTF is Next? Yeah… I'VE BEEN THERE.

Trapped in a soul-sucking job, clinging to what felt “safe” even though it was draining the life out of me. Stuck in the muck—as today’s guest, Michael Gardon, calls it. Sound familiar?

Here’s the thing: Your identity isn’t set in stone. You have WAY more agency over who you are and where you're headed than you think. Mike walked away from corporate burnout, turned a side hustle into a million-dollar business, and built Advantage Mapping—a framework to help you break free from the grind and design a life you actually love.

💡 Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
👉 Why your brain keeps you stuck in certainty (even when it sucks).
👉 How to stop asking “What do I want to DO?” and start asking “How do I want to FEEL?”
👉 Why building multiple paths forward is your secret weapon for success.

If you’ve ever thought, “Is this really IT?”—this episode is for you. 🚀

Ever have one of those New Year’s “I’m gonna change my life” moments that fizzle into a big ol’ pile of “meh” in just a few days? Yeah, we've all been there. It’s time to cut the BS and start doing things differently. Meet Julie DeLucca-Collins—habit queen, mindset coach, and all-around unapologetic badass—who’s here to school us on why lasting change isn’t about doing more, but about starting ridiculously small. Forget the comparison game and perfection; Julie’s got the secret sauce: start with "Tiny Habits", celebrate those micro wins until your brain gets hooked on feeling awesome.

And hey, I’m speaking from experience. I’ve felt stuck too—questioning who I’m supposed to be—and I’m done waiting for “someday.” That’s why I’m launching a kickass membership for midlife women in Q2 2025 to connect, support, and empower each other.

Unleashing Happiness: Life Lessons We Can Learn from Dogs 🐾

Back in 2019, I did something wildly out of character. I got a dog. Me—the girl allergic to dogs, raised in a family of "absolutely-not-dog-people"—went out and adopted Oliver Van Winkle Ti**le. (Yes, that’s his real name. No, I have no regrets.)

Fast forward through chewed-up shoes, middle-of-the-night potty breaks, and a global pandemic, and guess what? This single mom who once swore she’d NEVER be a “dog person” is now THAT dog person. Talking to strangers at the dog park? ✔️ Organizing doggy playdates? ✔️ Realizing my dog has a better social life than I do? BIG ✔️

But here’s the kicker—Ollie didn’t just change my life. He taught me how to live it. Dogs have this insane ability to remind us of what really matters:

🐶 Stop obsessing over the past and future—joy lives in the now.
🐶 Lose your mind over the small things (yes, that first sip of coffee counts).
🐶 Find your pack—ditch the energy vampires, keep the joy boosters.
🐶 Play like your happiness depends on it—because, newsflash, it does.
🐶 Embrace the unexpected—sometimes, the best things in life aren’t what you were chasing.

And that brings me to today’s podcast guest: Michelle Waitzman, author of "Be as Happy as Your Dog: 16 Dog-Tested Ways to Be Happier Using Pawsitive Psychology." She’s here to spill all the kibble on why your Labrador might just be winning at life more than you are.

🎧 Listen now: https://linktr.ee/DearMidlife

AND…if you’ve ever felt stuck, unfulfilled, or just plain over it, we’re launching a membership in Q2 2025 to bring together badass women in midlife who are ready to build deeper connections (with humans, not just our furry friends). If you want in as a founding member, give a thumbs up to this social post.

"Stop 'shoulding' all over yourself!" 🎤⬇️

You’ve checked all the boxes—career, family, responsibilities—but if you’re still feeling stuck, like you’re playing small in your own damn life… it’s time to wake up. That voice in your head saying, “Who am I to want more?” is lying to you.

Today’s guest, Mindi Huebner, is here to help you rewire your brain, crush self-sabotage, and finally start owning your power. She’s spilling the tea on the 7 keys to achieving your desires, why mental rehearsal is your secret weapon, and how to stop letting your subconscious run the show.

🔥 REAL TALK: Grief isn’t just about death. 🔥

It’s the loss of a relationship. The loss of a dream. The loss of your freaking identity. It’s that gut-punch when your kid leaves for college, the heartbreak of watching a friendship fade, or the free-fall after losing a job. And let’s be real… midlife is FULL of these moments. 😩💔

This week on the Dear Midlife podcast, we’re getting raw and real about grief in ALL its messy forms—the kind that sneaks up on you when you least expect it and leaves you questioning who the hell you even are.

I’m sitting down with Deb Day Coaching LLC, a powerhouse coach who rebuilt her life after losing her husband suddenly at 50. She’s here to show us how grief isn’t just about loss—it’s about REBIRTH. 🌱💫

And girl, this convo hits PERSONALLY. I just lost my ex-husband—the father of my daughters. Our relationship was layered with love, laughter, and struggle, and his passing has rocked me in ways I never saw coming. I know I’m not alone in this… and neither are you.

💥 We’re talking:
✅ How grief shows up in unexpected ways (and how to navigate it)
✅ The sneaky triggers that knock you sideways when you least expect it
✅ How to stop letting stress, burnout, and self-sabotage run the damn show
✅ Why taking care of YOURSELF is the best way to honor what you've lost

You are stronger than you think. And on the other side of grief? There’s healing, growth, and a life filled with purpose.

🚨 Ladies, let’s talk real talk. 🚨

Ever found yourself bending over backward for a guy who clearly isn’t ready for you? Same. 🙋‍♀️ I once dated a guy with 8 kids, two giant dogs, and a schedule that would exhaust the Energizer Bunny. Between late-night hangouts and playing doggy daycare, I was drained. Guess what? All that effort didn’t fix the fact that he was emotionally unavailable. Shocker, right? 🙄

Here’s the wild part: It wasn’t just him—it was ME. I had a thing for chaos. Growing up in a whirlwind household made dysfunction feel weirdly comforting. Throw in a past narcissistic relationship, and I spent YEARS hustling for love like my worth depended on it. Spoiler alert: IT DIDN’T.

Sound familiar? 🎯 Different guy, same drama, right? It’s not bad luck—it’s the stories we carry. Until you rewrite them, you’ll keep attracting chaos in a different package.

Enter Soni Pelty, certified relationship coach and founder of Limitless Love with Soni—the badass guide you didn’t know you needed. 💃 Soni reclaimed her power after an arranged marriage and proved that life (and love) begins when you stop settling.

In her latest podcast episode, Soni’s spilling the tea on:
✨ Loving YOU first (beyond bubble baths and wine).
✨ Letting men step up while leaning into your feminine energy.
✨ Why knowing your worth changes everything.
✨ Dating as a complement to your amazing life, not your full-time job.

🔥 Ready to ditch the chaos and claim the soul-nourishing love you deserve?

👉 [LISTEN NOW] https://linktr.ee/DearMidlife and rewrite your love story today.
