Regaining Confidence At Midlife 30:48

منذ 5 أيام30:48

30:48

Our confidence can really take a dip at midlife for various reasons. Maybe it’s the loss of a relationship. A redundancy. Perhaps it’s a health issue, injury or even the change in your appearance. It’s important to acknowledge that it can be a challenging time, but equally important to note that with a few small changes, we can rebuild confidence in a fresh and new way that aligns with this stage of life. So in this episode we dive into what that looks like physically and mentally, offering up insights and tips that will help you feel empowered, inspired and hopeful. As they say, confidence is an inside job, not defined by age. So here’s your permission to step boldly into the world, and live a life on your terms!

The Extinction Of Experience: Interview with Author Christine Rosen 45:20

منذ 19 يومًا45:20

45:20

Something we’ve talked about a lot on The Midlife Mentors podcast is the impact of social media and the digital world we live in, in particular on our relationships. In this episode we dive deeper as we’re joined by Christine Rosen, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of the thought-provoking book The Extinction of Experience . In a world increasingly dominated by digital technology, many of us have become disconnected from direct, meaningful encounters with the natural environment and with each other. Christine’s work delves into how and why this shift has happened—and the profound consequences it may have for our well-being, our culture, and even our understanding of ourselves. During our conversation, we explore the roots of this “extinction of experience,” uncover what it means in practical terms for our day-to-day lives, and consider how we might reclaim a more authentic and engaged way of living. Whether you’re a concerned parent or educator, or simply curious about how modern life shapes our worldview, this discussion promises fresh perspectives and, hopefully, a few solutions to help us reconnect.

Tackling Ageism: An Interview With Professor Sarah Vickerstaff 48:46

منذ 5 weeks48:46

48:46

Something we started to focus on towards the end of last year is the issue of ageism in the workplace. We started to hear more and more anecdotal stories about people being unable to find new roles on the basis of their age, and even spoke to recruitment professionals off the record who told us that clients were filtering applicants by age. Clearly there’s a huge personal cost to ageism, but in today’s skill shortage environment there can also be great cost to organisations. The job site Total Jobs released research on ageism in 2024 that highlighted some disturbing trends, with 59% of recruiters admitting to making age-based assumptions and 46% considering candidates over 57 “too old.” We wanted to know more, so in this episode we’re joined by Professor Sarah Vickerstaff , Professor Emerita of Work and Employment at the University of Kent, and a leading expert in this field. She co-authored the Total Jobs research and she shares with us not only her findings about how age discrimination manifests in the job market, but most importantly—practical steps we can all take to create more inclusive, respectful work environments. Whether you’re an employer aiming to retain valuable talent or an employee seeking fair treatment, this conversation will shed light on the realities of workplace ageism and offer pathways for positive change. So settle in, and get ready for an insightful discussion that might just change how you view your career journey and the role age plays in it. We hope you enjoy it.

Changing The Menopause Conversation: Interview with Kate Muir 47:17

On this week’s episode of The Midlife Mentors podcast we’re absolutely thrilled to be joined by Kate Muir, who is well known for being the creator and producer of the groundbreaking documentary with Davina McCall on the menopause which premiered in 2021 and changed the menopause conversation in the UK forever. As a women’s health advocate and author of books on the menopause and the pill, this conversation with Kate is incredibly uplifting, insightful and informative. She shares how she had her own midlife crisis, brought on by the menopause - and brilliantly, how the initial rejections for her documentary concept on the menopause fuelled her passion to get the message out there even more and eventually led to Channel 4 and Davina McCall becoming involved. Kate talks about HRT, the importance of combining it with lifestyle factors such as weight lifting and nutrition and also the impact menopause has on our brain health. We know you’re going to find this a fascinating episode and we can’t wait to hear your feedback. https://katemuir.co.uk/ IG: @menoscandal Marbella Retreat (March 13-16th): https://thirtyeightdegreesnorth.com/midlife-reset-marbella/ Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

Too Old To Work...? 24:03

In November research was released that showed the average age at which candidates are considered “too old” for job roles is 57. This ties in with what we’ve heard anecdotally working with organisations and clients - that ageism is now a significant issue in the workplace. We have an ageing population and an increasing life span with many people happy to work beyond retirement - so how do we foster a more age inclusive work culture? In this episode we dive into the shocking stats around age and work, look at the benefits of having an age diverse workforce, dispel some myths about older workers and look ahead to what organisations can be doing to help create a more age inclusive culture.

By the time we hit mid-life it’s highly likely we’ve experienced a lot of disappointments and things just generally not turning out the way we expected them to. This can often crush our spirit, leading to self doubt, negative self talk and a feeling of hopelessness. Perhaps we even give up on our dreams. So in this episode we discuss what causes disappointment in the first place and we also offer up 10 ways to move through it so you can begin the journey of regaining your energy, confidence and faith that things will get better with time.

We discuss why men find it more of a struggle to maintain social networks as they age and what can be done to encourage either group or one to one interactions, so men can thrive at midlife and experience the positive mental and physical effects of community.

The Battle For Our Attention 19:43

In this episode I, Claire, go solo...discussing how there’s a very real battle going on for our attention. We’ve become slaves to mind dumbing dopamine hits - 24 hour news channels, doom scrolling, switching back and forth between apps, distracting ourselves and arguing with strangers online. It’s sucking the very life out of us and hijacking our ability to focus on what’s really important. And guess what? It’s no one else’s responsibility but ours to take back control. And right now, I couldn’t think of any greater, more important choice to make. This has been and continues to be a real journey for me, and so I hope this episode resonates with you.
