  • Dangerously poor advice

    Really terrible podcast that exploits women at one of their most vulnerable phases in life. Terribly inaccurate and harmful content.

  • Life changing advice for midlifers

    James and Claire are my trusted source, go to support and comforting peers through this midlife rollercoaster. When your emotions are all over the place and you are bombarded with information, it’s been a life saver to have you guys there who I trust not only are up to date qualified but also experienced in all of this stuff for me to know what to do. Thank you sooo much and keep up the good work!

  • Jam packed with relatable, empowering info

    I’ve recently started listening to James & Claire and really enjoy their approach. Each podcast is jam packed with takeaway tips - either from their own experience, from evidence based research, or a combination of the two. They cover so many important topics, always in a really relatable chatty style. Highly recommend for anyone on a health journey wanting to dig deeper into what derails us, why, and how to stay on track.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Age Rebellion: Why Midlife Is Our Time to Rise - Interview with Lyndsey Simpson
Q: What would you say to someone who feels fear about changing careers or pursuing a new path post-50?
Acknowledge fear as a natural response, then map out a 'glide path' rather than a cliff edge into retirement. Start with small, concrete steps, seek support from mentors and your circle, and test ideas with low-risk actions before fully committing. The goal is to build confidence through progress and a clear plan.
Choosing More: Life Beyond Alcohol - Interview with Casey Davidson
Q: What should someone do if they fear judgment for stopping drinking?
Build a supportive community, frame the period as a health experiment rather than a lifestyle deprivation, and seek out like-minded peers and mentors to normalize and sustain the change.
Choosing More: Life Beyond Alcohol - Interview with Casey Davidson
Q: How effective is gray-area drinking and can it be moderated permanently?
Gray-area drinking sits on a spectrum of dependence, and many people underestimate how addictive alcohol can be; permanent moderation is rare without recognizing the underlying triggers and committing to a substantial period of abstinence to reset the nervous system and habits.
Choosing More: Life Beyond Alcohol - Interview with Casey Davidson
Q: Casey, why do women in midlife come to you to get sober?
Women in midlife often face energy drains, social pressures, and hormonal changes that make moderation hard; they want to feel better, reduce anxiety, and regain control, not just cut back, which leads them to pursue goal-oriented, structured programs like a 100-day alcohol-free plan.
Raising Teens: From Conflict To Connection - Interview with Dr Suzanne Simpson
Q: Why do you think so many teenagers struggle at adolescence?
The guest explains that teens are wired for negativity and undergo brain changes until their mid-20s, making them more impulsive and emotional; social media and digital environments have amplified these challenges, contributing to anxiety and other mental health concerns.
