  • I don't know about you...but I often feel like I'm constantly behind and racing just to stay still. That changed over the course of this summer, when I did a 7-week social media detox (I intended to do 6 weeks but was enjoying it so much that I've stayed away from being 'out there' for an extra week).

    In this episode, I share how I've gained a huge boost of clarity, headspace and perspective. You'll hear how I've cut out lots of things from my life that were draining me and overwhelming me. I also share how I cleared out a load of old stuff from my house...and the precious thing that I discovered hidden under all the clutter.

    I'm grateful to have moved into September feeling lighter, more present and far more in control of my time, my focus and my energy.

    I hope that listening to this episode inspires you to do some decluttering of your own. I'd love to hear from you if so. You can find me on the links below:

  • With the frenetic, back-to-school period about to kick in, I thought I'd re-share with you some guidance on how to stay grounded in the face of so much stress.

    This chat with Terri Creeden will make you think differently about what it means to lead your family. She shares how essential it is that we engage in self-care so that we have the capacity to help our family members to fulfill their own potential in life.

    Terri is a certified executive coach, trainer and facilitator. She believes in embracing slowness in our lives and leading with courage.

    She co-founded Grounded Parents Group with Sanela Lukanovic as an act of rebellion, after seeing how difficult it is for parents to find a space for their own self-development.

    Since the original podcast was recorded, Grounded Parents Group has opened up and expanded its personal development to parents and non-parents alike at www.selfdom.life.

  • I'm delighted to re-share this eye-opening conversation on a topic which affects ALL of us.

    As you'll hear Gwyneth Moss explain, we have all picked up limiting beliefs when we were young children. These limiting beliefs (also known as "false truths") are often what are sabotaging us as adults.

    In this episode, you'll learn how false truths dictate our thoughts, behaviours and life choices...without us even being aware of them.

    I've been fortunate to have trained in EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) tapping with Gwyneth. I think you will love her straight-talking wisdom.

    Gwyneth teaches people how to use tapping to help themselves, to help others, to help children and even to help animals. Find out more about her work at https://efthelps.com.

  • This is a re-release of episode 56 of my podcast. - and one of my favourite conversations.

    If I could persuade everyone to adopt just one habit, it would be a daily gratitude practice. It's no exaggeration to say that this is a practice that transforms people's lives on every level.

    This is a deeply uplifting conversation with the inspirational Holly Bertone. Holly discovered the power of gratitude after she was hit by a double whammy of chronic diseases which took her from over-achieving high-performer to bed-ridden and unable to function.

    Whatever challenges you are currently facing in life, this conversation will empower you to start reaping the remarkable benefits of gratitude. The research is unequivocal: gratitude transforms our emotional health, helps us to recover from past traumas, builds our resilience and improves our physical health too.

    Holly's approach is gentle and kind: she shows you how to start to build gratitude into your life, no matter how difficult that might seem.

    Holly is a best-selling author, sought-after speaker and gratitude coach. As a breast cancer and autoimmune survivor, she helps women to unwrap their resilience.

    She is President and CEO of Pink Fortitude and founder of Fortitude.Academy. She is a Project Management Professional and holds a Masters Degree from Johns Hopkins University. She is also a Certified Natural Health Professional.

  • You might be feeling stuck, frustrated and taken for granted - you might be feeling that life is passing you by, and that it's too late for you to create the life you want.

    I hope that this episode gives you hope that midlife is a golden period of opportunity to shake up your life and redesign it in a way that fulfils you.

    This is a very deep, soulful conversation with a wise, inspiring midlifer, Michelle Salon. Michelle is a mum of four who went from feeling depleted, overwhelmed and insecure to landing her dream job and letting go of the people-pleasing that was draining her.

    We discuss how the perimenopause can make us feel insecure in our career; the challenges of claiming time for ourselves; how the need for validation can hamper us; establishing boundaries around the time we give to others; finding joy in creative activities; and manifesting what we want out of life.

    It's been a joy to walk this journey with Michelle and watch her begin to blossom and thrive.

    It's so empowering to hear a real-life story of positive change in midlife: I hope that listening to Michelle will inspire you too to follow your dreams.

  • In this episode, I share a story from my past which nearly resulted in tragedy - for me and for many others.

    I'm very aware how fortunate I am to be here, alive and well, to share this with you today.

    You'll hear why our brains are so deeply vulnerable - and how easily they can malfunction from what we put in our body.

    I hope that sharing my story prompts you to reflect on your own story. What has happened to you in your past which might be affecting your present?

    As always, do drop me a note if this resonates with you.

  • Here are my honest reflections on the perimenopause and menopause - and what I wish that all women knew.

    I share the ways that I'm preparing for this transition - and the many ways that I used to sabotage my body's ability to balance itself. I'm glad I know better now.

    I hope this episode inspires you to care for yourself, whatever your age or stage of life.

  • In this (the final episode in this season of Midlife Illuminated) I share something that every woman needs. Particularly in midlife, when we are overwhelmed by the needs of others.

    It's the need to return to ourselves. In the classic book Women Who Run With The Wolves, this is described as "homing".

    With thanks to Clarissa Pinkola Estes - author of Women Who Run With The Wolves - for enlightening me on the need for homing.

    I hope this episode gives you the permission you need to do your own homing.

    I'm now starting a quiet time of no podcasting and no social media posting. To find out how transformative this was last year, listen to episode 68 of this podcast ("I saw the light! Here's how.") You can find it here:

    https://pod.co/midlife-illuminated/tuning-out-others-and-tuning-into-yourself

    Lastly, I'd like to say a big thank you for tuning in - I'm so grateful for you choosing to join me here. I look forward to sharing more illuminations with you when I'm back for season 5 (make sure you've hit the subscribe button to hear the new season). Wishing you a wonderful summer! Suzy x

  • Women have always been conditioned to put their own wellbeing last. Research shows that their pets get better care than they do. Pets are wonderful companions: they need and deserve our care. But don't we deserve some care too?

    Research has also shown that this "me-last" conditioning leads to serious consequences when it comes to our health outcomes.

    For our sakes AND the sake of our loved ones, let's rip up this script and begin a new one. I hope this episode gives you the inspiration to rethink your priorities and discover what lights YOU up.

  • Getting yourself healthy doesn't have to be hard work. It can actually be, yes, pleasurable!

    Here's my Peppermint Tea chat with Katy Grele, a 51-year-old mum who has come through breast cancer. Katy wasn't interested in doing any more short-lived, quick-fix diet plans. She wanted to adopt healthy habits to see her through the menopause...and the rest of her life. And she has surprised herself by actually enjoying this process.

    I hope that listening to our Peppermint Tea chat reassures you that you can also make the lifestyle changes you'd like to.

  • Ever tried a quick-fix way to lose weight or feel better or look younger? Ever tried a wellness gimmick that promised overnight miracles?

    We need to think beyond the short-term. We need to think about how we'd like to feel and live in the last years of our life.

    I hope this episode gives you a different perspective on weight loss, ageing - and on caring for yourself.

  • There's a crisis amongst women at work. Burnout is the no. 1 reason why women are leaving (or planning to leave) their job.

    I've been there myself. My mental and physical health suffered when I tried to juggle a high-stress PR job with caring for very young children.

    I talk through why we're at breaking point - and what you can do to protect yourself from burnout.

  • I'm just back from a sailing holiday in Greece. It rained a lot...but at least the food was fabulous. I thought I'd share with you what I've learnt about the fabled "Mediterranean diet".

    As you'll hear, food is SO much more than fuel - and the Mediterranean diet is SO much more than what's on our plate.

    I hope this episode gives you practical, simple tips on adopting a health-boosting Mediterranean lifestyle...wherever you live.

  • I learnt the hard way how to listen to my body's signals.

    In this episode, I share how my body screamed at me - and how I was deaf to what it was saying. I saw each new symptom as something I needed to mask or get rid of. I didn't understand that the root cause of them all was stress.

    I also guide you to tune in to what your body is telling you - and empower you to honour our one, precious body.

  • A goal to "get ourselves healthy" can look like a towering, daunting mountain to climb. It can also mean endless failed attempts that leave us with no faith in our ability to change.

    Being harsh to ourselves is a terrible motivator. In this episode, I share a much more effective, gentler way to adopt healthy habits - and start to thrive.

    I hope it gives you hope that you're not stuck - and that you can feel so much better than you currently do.
