Yes, it’s the thought that counts, but what is the thought? Does a post of Facebook have the same thoughtfulness as a call? Is a direct text more intimate than a declaration on social media? Is a voice memo more personal than a text? Has all of this social media made a hierarchy of degrees of intimacy in your relationships?

There comes a point in parenting when you have to flip a switch in your approach. When you stop raising children and you start raising adults. It’s time to drop the facade and start sharing with your late teen/early adult children more of the human experience. There is huge benefit to them, and to you, to show not only the highlight reel of your life that they are probably already familiar with, but to start exposing some of the challenges you face, some of the regrets you may have, and some life lessons that you’d like them to internalize earlier than you did.

Kimby’s computer wont start and ALL of the thoughts start spinning. The problem? Let’s just say there’s a reoccurring issue with Kimby’s technology… Also it’s raining inside of Tracy’s house. Just another day in The Midlife.
Sharing what we need and being vulnerable is important to having a healthy relationship. Also knowing that not all people are safe and therefore not the right place to share your vulnerability. Tracy and Kimby discussing it all and unsurprisingly, it all comes back to understanding what’s “My Ten Acre
Why we are late to recording this morning plus our foray into The Tracy Anderson Method. We are not affiliated. Just an honest accounting…
It happens to everyone – you hit a slump and you have to get back on track. Kimby’s mojo’s been missing. We talk about it.
It happens to everyone – you hit a slump and you have to get back on track. Kimby’s mojo’s been missing. We talk about it.
We have a special guest… Yael Rallis joins us to talk about The Midlife and her journey in it. Yael never stopped living her dream. She is an uber talented rock drummer who has toured the world and had endless creative endeavors. Yael was true to her path and calling but talks us through her world and validates how yes, we all end up in The Midlife.
We start off with another episode of “why are we late to recording?”
Today we discuss the layers of grieving. And yes Tracy cries a lot while sharing which layer she is in with her Dad’s passing. Kimby talks about her Mother-In-Laws’ passing, and the gifts she got from her.
We are getting DEEP today. Let’s talk about the hard relationships. Do you have a relationship in which someone hands you 50 lbs of bad energy and you carry it? Tracy has found herself in one of these and is playing with not grabbing the energy being passed her way. One sided relationships feel heavy, but is the fear of loosing the relationship worse than the need to be the person you want to be today?
Kimby is in a slump, Tracy is on an upswing (so annoying but also good when you are in a partnership- one up and one down makes for a good relationship).
A lot of time we need to blow the whistle for ourselves, but do we ? Or do we let it all continue to pile up until we are underneath it all?
Pamela Anderson is the Midlife example we all need. Really. Have a listen as we discuss her Netflix documentary. Throw out what you think you know of the pinup image. This very real woman has got serious grit.
This episode was posted out of sequence to tackle a current event.
How do we use our friends?
Are our safe places for gossip and gang up energy or do we use them to be vulnerable to show in ways where we can grow and push each other to be better?
Should we let our people wallow? Or do we jump in and have the hard talks with love?
Vent? Or Advice? How do we show up for each other and how do we want to show up for others and have them show up for us?
We shared what’s working for us and answered AWESOME questions from the audience. If you want to in our audience on Wednesday Happy Hours, go to themidlife.co/happy-hour
In recording land it’s really Kimby’s birthday (in the real world her day in Jan 10) and it’s a doozy. The old pictures came flying in – do we like seeing old pictures of us on our birthday in midlife? Or do we hate it? Tracy is having a life lesson learning moment… you know those? Where you feel like you might disappoint a whole bunch of people? Are you expecting 100% satisfaction guaranteed? For you to be unflawed ? Hear Tracy’s human experience.
You have the power to set the energy of any situation. We’ll show you how. You are the matrix.
Parenting expert and coach Randi Rubenstein joined us today to talk all things parenting. And in Midlife, that really means applying all the “reparenting” you’ve been doing of yourself to ALL relationships – humans smaller and larger than you, those birthed from your loins…or not.
Many of us got the message that is was not polite to discuss money. We think that does all of us a huge disservice

“My Ten Acres” is one of Tracy’s favorite phrases. We thought it might be a good idea to dig down into exactly what it is and what it means to each of us. The irony, Kimby knows exactly what Tracy means by it, but in practice, she hasn’t fully embraced it. Come hear why and […]
Maybe it’s painful to realize how much influence your thoughts have over the outcomes in your life. But also, can you see how incredibly powerful you are?
