Midlife Stress Reset: The Surprising Truth About Grief, Hormones & Why You’re So Tired
Episode 164
Wednesday, 19 November, 2025
If stress feels like a constant hum in the background and your goals keep getting heavier, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. I sit down with Dr. Sue McCreadie—holistic pediatrician and powerhouse midlife transformation coach—for a raw, compassionate conversation that untangles grief, hormones, anxiety, and the pressure to keep it all together. Dr. Sue opens up about losing her father and what the “wave of grief” actually feels like inside a busy life—kids, marriage, businesses, expectations. She explains how stress balloons when we fight reality, and how simple rituals, guided meditations, breath, and curiosity let emotion move through instead of lodging in the body. We connect this emotional work to the biology of midlife: fluctuating estrogen and progesterone, elevated cortisol, and mood shifts that can amplify anxiety. You’ll hear practical, holistic tools—protein-rich meals, strength training, sleep hygiene, sunlight, magnesium, omega-3s, somatic practices—that create a calmer baseline for your mind.We also confront the cultural script that worships productivity and fuels imposter syndrome. Dr. Sue shares a liberating approach to goals: set a clear intention, take focused action, then release attachment to the exact timing and path. And because healing can be light, we add a playful mindset shift: when life surprises you, say “That’s fascinating,” and notice how curiosity softens judgment.If you’re ready to feel vibrant, intuitive, beautiful, and empowered, this episode is your reminder that you are already enough—and that midlife can be your most joyful chapter yet.
