40ish | The Funny Podcast on Perimenopause, Menopause & Midlife

This week on 40ish, Nicole has bought a steam mop and is feeling like she’s absolutely nailed adulthood. Meanwhile, Lauren has finally disposed of some Uniqlo “slacks” that were making her feel approximately 60ish.

In Midlife News, we’re talking about the latest research into HRT and dementia risk and what it actually tells us about menopause, HRT and brain health. Then we tackle this week’s dilemma: when your pregnant sister asks what you think of her baby name, are you actually obliged to tell the truth? Especially when the name makes you think of a Victorian ghost haunting the corridors of a stately home. Finally, we investigate one of the great mysteries of modern masculinity: the moustache. Why is every man suddenly growing one? Is there such a thing as a genuinely good moustache apart from on Tom Selleck?

If you’re enjoying 40ish, please share this episode with a friend who you think will love it too. Because nothing says friendship like sending someone a podcast about midlife, menopause, HRT, moustaches and Victorian ghost babies.

Welcome to the brand new season of 40ish - the midlife and menopause podcast for women in their 30s, 40s & 50s.

This week: a couple who are healthy, financially secure and stable, but have completely lost their spark. How do you start enjoying life and each other again? Plus, is raving the new midlife self-care? We're asking whether swapping the spa day for a crop top and loud music actually counts as wellness.

Also in this episode: Nicole has a full nervous breakdown over new studio tech, Lauren goes deeply evangelical about arch support and flip-flops (this is genuinely where we are in midlife), and has a disturbing realisation in a school uniform shop that she's turning into her own mother.

And today's meltdown: a woman wants it made very clear that marrying another woman does NOT automatically mean you get a partner who does the housework. Is it time for a formal domestic performance review?

New season, same 40ish chaos. Let's get into it.

We love to hear from you!
