Take A Breath
A podcast for creating practical calm in the messy middle of midlife.
This is your space to pause.
Because life in midlife is full-on. Between work, family, menopause, and the mental load, your nervous system can easily end up in constant overdrive — leaving you feeling exhausted, reactive, and overwhelmed by even the smallest things.
Each week, I’ll share my own tools, alongside honest conversations and practical nervous system support — to help you create more calm, peace, joy, and inner steadiness. Not by escaping your life, because that’s totally unrealistic, but by meeting it differently.
So when you're ready, let’s take a breath together…
Take A Breath
Thursday Thoughts - People Pleasing
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this week’s Thursday Thoughts, Lucy and I are talking about people pleasing, and what can happen when we prioritise other people’s needs, opinions and expectations over our own.
We chat about getting to know ourselves better, setting healthier boundaries, and becoming more comfortable with the fact that not everyone is going to like us - and that’s OK.
We also discuss why saying ‘no’ doesn’t always need an explanation, and how being more honest about who we are and what we want can ultimately lead to stronger, more authentic relationships.
We hope you’ll find something interesting or helpful in here.
Love,
Polly & Lucy x
