200: Rocking midlife with Dr Ellen Albertson
Body image, self-worth and ageing are all key midlife topics and many women struggle deeply with their bodies at midlife, often in silence. Dr Ellen Albertson is passionate about changing that. She’s a psychologist, registered dietitian, board-certified health and wellness coach and author of Rock Your Midlife. She’s known as The Midlife Whisperer and it’s easy to understand why. She’s been in my midlife orbit since I started this adventure and it’s great to finally get to talk to her. If you’ve ever felt at odds with your body, unsure who you’re becoming or simply tired of being told that midlife is something to “get through”, this conversation is both reassuring and quietly radical. We talk about: -Why so many women feel betrayed by their bodies at midlife -How media and beauty culture profit from women’s self-doubt -The difference between caring for your body and controlling it -Why self-compassion is the foundation for lasting change -Ellen’s experience of breast cancer, near-blindness and what those moments taught her -Menopause as a neurological and emotional shift, not just a physical one -Letting go of old identities and creating something new -Finding love, intimacy and connection later in life -Why curiosity is one of the most powerful tools we have -The seven steps Ellen outlines in Rock Your Midlife -Rebuilding relationships as we grow and change -Why midlife is about expansion, not disappearance And lots more.
