The Midlife
Hosts Kimberly Samson and Tracy Feldstein bring you a no-holds-barred view of life from the middle. No topic is off limits. Bored by the sudden saturation of midlife “transformations” (yes, this intense questioning sometime in your 40’s and 50’s seems to be a universal experience) Tracy and Kimberly don’t think the answer is sanitized instagram feeds and talking endlessly about gray hair, menopause, ageism, and “go get ‘em, Honey, you’re not too old”. Kimberly and Tracy bring you something deeper. Still inspirational, for sure. But also raw and honest and funny. Part instructional/part entertainment, Tracy and Kimberly are wives, mothers, entrepreneurs and friends talking about everything you're thinking about and wondering if anyone else is too. What they've got figured out, they clue you in, what they're still struggling with, they openly share and work through. If they can smooth the journey for you too, they've done the job they set out to do.

How To Curb The Knee-Jerk Reaction
When we are hard on ourselves we inhibit our ability to communicate. If we are the ones who are being hard on ourselves than when someone even looks at us the "wrong" way or we get an email that makes us feel silly or that we did understand what we are doing, we REACT. We have knee jerk responses and defensively go on the attack. (and guess what we generally get back?.... more of the same kind of energy, more icky responses). When we have our own back, when we fully get who we are (and who we are NOT) we have more cushion inside of us and our responses have an ease, a playfulness, and a humble energy to them.
