Welcome to Midlife, the brand new podcast from writer, host and storyteller Lisa Steadman. In this series, we'll explore what society doesn’t teach us about life after 40. As a younger person, we’re shown depictions of what a happy life looks like. College. Dating. Relationships. Engagement. Marriage. Parenthood. But no one prepares you for menopause or low T. The only advertisers trying to reach us are the pharmaceutical industry and retirement planners. And yet, midlife can be an incredibly rewarding and enriching stage of life, even with belly bloat, creaky knees and drugstore reading glasses.
