What You’ll Find Around Here

Midlife is weird, messy, funny, and sometimes a little chaotic. I share things from my… we’ll call ’em midlife adventures! From cozy moments and books I’m loving to the thoughts and shifts that come with this stage of life and pretty much whatever the hell I want to talk about! 🤣 Check out the blog, YouTube channel, or podcast…

Hi, I’m Tish.

I’m a midlife woman who spent years hating my body, shrinking myself, and following all the “rules” about how women should look, act, speak, and age.

And let me tell you… that created nothing good. It kept me small, stuck, and miserable.

Eventually I said F*** it!

I ditched diet culture, questioned society’s bullshit beauty, body, and aging standards, and started choosing myself instead of trying to fit into someone else’s idea of who I should be.

Learning to build a more compassionate relationship with my body and question all the bullshit changed a lot for me.

Now a days I’m focused on living my Unapologetic Midlife era.

That means doing life my way – giving myself permission to take up space however I want in this phase of life. 🤩

Because midlife isn’t the time to shrink!

A podcast for midlife women.
