Midlife Shenanigans with Tish

by Tishia Lee

A podcast for middle-aged women navigating the wild, beautiful, sometimes sh*t show that is midlife... hot flashes, perimenopause, rediscovering joy, identity shifts, empty nest, aging/changing bodies, and so much more. If you’re done living life according to what other people think a midlife woman "should" be doing, and you know there's still so much more life left to live, this podcast is for you! Midlife isn’t a crisis. It’s a reclamation. A rebirth. An awakening. Call it whatever you want - just not a crisis, please! ;-)I’m sharing raw unfiltered conversations about what it means to live midlife on my terms. The messy stuff, the magical stuff, and everything in between with honesty, humor, and lots of sass ;-). Think of this show as your weekly reminder: You’re still living. You’re still learning. And you have "permission" to shake this chapter of your life up - whatever that means for you. And remember in midlife snacks are required, sanity is optional and snorts encourage

Episodes

  1. Role Reversal With an Aging Parent

    In this episode, I share a moment from a recent trip to Gulf Shores, Alabama (where I spent three weeks with my mom and step dad) when I noticed the aging signs in my mom and felt the shift in our roles. I talk about what it was like to be the one reminding her to be careful, asking if she was…

  2. Stop Treating Your Body Like the Enemy (The Real Love Story for February)

    This February, forget everything you've been sold about love and romance. I want to talk about a different kind of love story: falling in love with your body. When was the last time you thanked your body for carrying you through life? When did you last celebrate what your body can do instead of...

  3. Getting Off the Floor at Fifty: Midlife Mobility Mishaps and Laughs

    In this episode, I'm chatting aobut the humbling moment when my 50-year-old body staged a full on rebellion against me! What started as a simple task—sitting on the floor to dig through bottom dresser drawers—turned into a five-minute + struggle complete with grunting, cussing, tears, and a very...

  4. When Your Body Lets You Down (or Feels Like It Does)

    Being sick for 13 days has taken me on an emotional ride I wasn’t prepared for — frustration, anger, tears, anxiety, and everything in between. And there's even been an unexpected positive to this 13 day "plague" ;-) Despite complaining, I have an important message/takeaway for you in today's...

  5. Just Checking In - Happy New Year

    Happy New Year! I'm sick so this week's episode isn't happening - at least the one I had planned. Instead, this is just a short "voice note" instead of a regular podcast episode. The takeaway from this little check-in is that you don't have to buy into any of this new year, new you bullcrap!

  6. Permission to Feel During the Holidays

    The holidays can bring up a wide range of emotions, not all of them joyful. In this short episode, I talk about giving yourself permission to feel whatever you’re feeling this season and leaning into compassion and self-love. Wanna be a guest? Head on over to…

  7. Perimenopause: The Unexpected Upside

    In this episode, I talk about something I’ve been noticing a lot in perimenopause and menopause spaces, especially on Facebook. So much of the conversation focuses on what’s going wrong. While I believe we absolutely need space to talk about the hard stuff, I also realized I’d been getting stuck…

  8. Why Being 'Too Much' Is Actually Your Superpower

    In this episode, I chat about being labeled “too ___” (too loud, too emotional, too big,, etc.) and why those very traits you were told to shrink are actually your superpowers in midlife. Tune in for a blend of humor, honesty, and midlife truth-telling as I share my own journey from shrinking to...

  9. The Power of No (walking away from an opportunity)

    In this episode of Midlife Shenanigans with Tish, I’m spilling the tea on an opportunity that landed in my inbox… and why I am saying no to something I literally journaled about wanting in 2026. I'm talking gut instincts, self-trust, midlife clarity, and the power of saying no. I also share the...

  10. Midlife Hormones: Finally, Some Answers

    Midlife hormones... after months of feeling like a sweaty, sleep-deprived, mood-swingy gremlin, my lab results finally came in… and honestly? The relief was real. To see just how out of whack my hormone levels are - talk about validation! In this episode, I chat about how excited - yes excited!…

    Midlife body shenanigans - those lovely random aches and pains that seem to pop up for absolutely no reason.

  12. Midlife Hormones Are Wreaking Havoc (But What If My Labs Say I'm Fine?)

    Midlife Hormones! Hot flashes, insomnia, and the unwelcome return of Aunt Flo after almost seven period-free months. I’m chatting about getting my hormones tested, soon, and the fear that everything might come back “normal” — even though I know something’s off. If you’ve ever sweat through your...

  13. Almost Menopausal… Until Aunt Flow Had Other Plans

    Seven months. That’s how close I was to hitting menopause — until Aunt Flow decided she wasn’t done with me yet! In this episode, I’m talking about the comeback no one asked for, the weird grief that hit when my period first disappeared, and how midlife hormones are turning me into someone I…

  14. Finding Joy During A Midlife Funk

    This week was a whole mood — zero motivation, too many tears, and me side-eyeing life like, “what even is joy?” But I found a few small sparks again (thank you, music and messy journaling), and I’m sharing what helped in case you’re crawling out of (or in the middle of) your own midlife funk too....

  15. Navigating the Weirdness of Midlife: When Everything Feels Off

    Midlife is f***ing weird. One minute I'm fine, the next I'm questioning everything — who am I, what do I want, and why my body seems to have its own agenda. In this episode, I’m talking about the restless, anxious, slightly unhinged side of midlife — the part nobody warned me about. The sleep...

  16. Fast & the Furriest — I’m a Midlife Speed Demon Now

Welcome to "Midlife Shenanigans with Tish"! In this episode, I share how my well-intentioned morning took a...

  17. Imperfectly Perfect: Launching Midlife Shenanigans

    Welcome to episode one of Midlife Shenanigans! 🎉 After recording this first episode more times than I can count, I finally said screw it - "perfection" isn’t the goal, connection is. In this brief episode, I share why I’ve stalled, how I’ve been sh*tting on my own dreams, and what you can expect...

  18. Midlife, Mischief & a Microphone

    It’s finally happening! Midlife Shenanigans with Tish Lee - the podcast I've been putting off and off and off... but no more! It's here. In this trailer episode, I’m giving you a sneak peek at what Midlife Shenanigans is all about — the vibe, the voice, and the very real sh*t we’ll be talking…
