Midlife, Motherhood & Mayhem: Starting Over as a 38-Year-Old DJ

from We're The MotherFogging DJ's

In our very first episode of We’re the Motherfogging DJs!, Shanaz and Emma crack openthe booth door and let you in. … this is the unfiltered story of how two women in their late30s and 40s found their way (back) to the dancefloor.In this debut episode, Shanaz and Emma share how they found (and re-found) themselvesthrough music — from warehouse raves to motherhood, burnout, imposter syndrome andmidlife reinvention.Shanaz went from working on major tours for icons like Prince and Take That to raising hergirls — before stepping behind the decks and reinventing herself as a DJ in her late 30s.Emma left teaching, raised four kids, and returned to the decks after years away from thedancefloor.Together, they explore what no one tells you about midlife — the confidence wobbles, thephysical shifts, the identity crises… and the fire that comes back when you claim somethingfor yourself.This is not a menopause lecture.It’s not a nostalgia trip.It’s an honest, funny, no-filter conversation about womanhood, aging and club culture — andwhy midlife might be your most powerful era yet.Midlife isn’t the end of the party.It might just be the afterparty.Welcome to the movement.Welcome to the booth.We’re the Motherfogging DJs.
