#16 When The Things That Got You Through… Are Now Getting In The Way

Wine. CBD. Melatonin. A little something to knock the edge off before bed. This episode’s about substance use in midlife — not as a party trick, but as a survival strategy. We talk numbing, sleep anxiety, and the slippery slope of sedation-as-self-care. Because sometimes the things that got us through the hard nights… are the very things holding us back from better ones.

#15 Should’ve Started Sooner

I picked up softball in my 40s, got wrecked in the German championships, and somehow ended up playing baseball for real. This one’s about the weird joy of learning new things when your back hurts, your ego’s brittle, and your only regret is not starting sooner.

#14 What Is Success at midlife??

What does success really mean? A job title? A house? A dream gig? In this episode, I unpack 20 years of chasing status, from Blackberry envy to becoming a radio host, only to discover that none of it brought the fulfilment I expected. Now in midlife, I'm rethinking what success looks and feels like. Maybe it’s not about the car or the salary… maybe it’s just about not dreading Monday. And maybe, just maybe, the badge doesn’t matter as much as the breath you can take when it’s finally off.

#13 The Electric Redemption of My Aging Arse

I bought an e-bike over a decade ago, and honestly? Still, to this day, one of the best decisions I ever made. This episode dives into why midlife isn’t the time to grind uphill just to prove a point. From dodging sweaty commutes to exploring Alpine trails, this is a love letter to assisted pedalling, ageing knees, and the kind of freedom only a battery can buy. If you think e-bikes are cheating, this one’s for you. Clip in, and let’s ride.

#12 Your Blood Knows Before You Do

I went in for routine blood work and walked out with a medical slap in the face. In this episode, I talk about the second page of results that showed my triglycerides were 5x the safe level, the quiet warning signs of ageing, and the midlife moment when you realise your body is quietly filing complaints. It's not a crisis — it's a crossroads. Time to listen to the data before the damage.
