#17: You without your job title

jeudi 6 août 2026 • Durée 16:06

For twenty-five years, Lisa was known as the girl who worked for the telecom company. Then the company was gone, and so was the version of her that everyone recognized.

In this episode, Lisa unpacks what happens when your sense of self gets built around a job title, a company, a role you're known for.

She talks about why she wouldn't leave her corporate career without a severance package, the three years it took her to claim the words business owner, and what identity actually looks like once the scaffolding of a career is gone. She also widens the conversation to parenting, and the grief that shows up quietly as her son moves toward adulthood.

#16: Before burnout had a name

jeudi 30 juillet 2026 • Durée 14:38

I used to believe that being tired meant I was valuable. It took years before I had a word for what was actually happening underneath.

In this episode, Lisa shares her burnout experience and what was really happening underneath the facts. She walks through the quiet, physical signs of burnout that rarely look dramatic, why a two-week vacation only touches the surface, and the small, unglamorous practices that helped her reconnect with herself.

#15: The real reason women in midlife avoid conflict

jeudi 23 juillet 2026 • Durée 13:52

You've rescheduled your whole day to avoid it. You've told yourself it just isn't the right time. This week, we're not talking about the conversation itself; we're talking about everything you do instead.

Coach Lisa unpacks why conflict is almost never about the surface thing; the dishes, the deadline, the tone of a message and almost always about a value quietly being stepped on. She walks through why avoidance feels easier in the moment even though it never actually is, why the same friction shows up inside you even when no one else is in the room, and what changes once you can name the value you're actually protecting.

If this sounds familiar, the midlife assessment at assessment.thecourageousmiddle.com is a quiet way to notice where you are right now. And for the longer read, this week's blog post goes deeper.

#14: Why you keep talking yourself out of changing

jeudi 16 juillet 2026 • Durée 19:41

You've done this before. You get excited about something, and somehow, a few days later, it quietly disappears.

This week, we're looking at why that happens, and it has nothing to do with how badly you wanted it. We get into SPF (safe, predictable, familiar) and why your comfort zone is built entirely from proof rather than truth. We look at why your subconscious mind and nervous system are constantly asking one question, is this safe, and why the doubt you feel isn't evidence against your decision. And we talk about the one question that interrupts the automatic no, and how repeating it, one small interruption at a time, is what actually rewires what feels safe.

#13: Your words change what you believe

jeudi 9 juillet 2026 • Durée 10:27

“I just think maybe we should revisit the timeline.” Say that sentence out loud. Now say it again without the first four words - We should revisit the timeline. Same thought. Completely different weight. In this episode, Lisa breaks down the small, automatic words so many of us insert before we've finished a sentence, words like think, maybe, and sorry, and why they show up most in the exact moments we need authority or clarity. She walks through why your subconscious mind is quietly working to keep you inside a comfort zone it built a long time ago, what a phrase like “I don't want to fail” is actually doing to your brain, and why noticing your own words, before you try to fix anything, is the real first step. If you are in the process of getting to know yourself better, take the midlife assessment at https://assessment.thecourageousmiddle.com/ to help explain what you are experiencing right now.

#12: When everything changes at once

jeudi 2 juillet 2026 • Durée 12:20

In midlife, your body is changing, so is everything else, all at once. This episode is about learning to tell the difference between the change you choose and the change that chooses you.

In this episode, Lisa unpacks why menopause was never meant to be called the end, what a program on perimenopause taught her about estrogen and grace, and the real difference between chosen change and unchosen change. She also shares three questions worth asking about any change you've already survived, the ones that show you exactly what you're capable of.

#11: Why you feel overwhelmed (Even when you are doing it right)

jeudi 25 juin 2026 • Durée 10:33

You're not behind because you're doing it wrong. You're behind because everything on your list looks the same. In this episode, Lisa Blanchet gets into the thing underneath the to-do list, the cognitive spiral that happens when your brain tries to hold everything at once and can't distinguish what actually matters today. If you've ever ended a full, productive day and still felt like you didn't get enough done, this one is for you. Lisa shares a client coaching moment where a list of twelve became four, and then became one clear next step. She shares a personal story of what happened when she came home from vacation and caught herself on autopilot and the practice, she used to stop letting her list be in charge. Listen at www.thecourageousmiddle.com/podcast or Apple and Spotify. And if you want to go deeper, the full blog post is waiting for you at www.thecourageousmiddle.com.

#10: It's Graduation Time

jeudi 18 juin 2026 • Durée 10:06

On his 18th birthday, my son's school communication app revoked my access. No warning. No transition. Just: you no longer belong here. And while that sounds like a small, practical thing, it didn't feel small at all.

In this episode, I'm sharing what that moment stirred up, and why I think it matters, not just for me, but for anyone navigating a season where something is quietly closing before the next thing has opened. We talk a lot about the big milestone moments: graduation day, the diploma walk, the dinner afterward. But midlife is also full of smaller transitions that arrive without ceremony, without a crowd, without anyone handing you a tissue. And those can be the hardest ones to hold, especially when you're holding them alone.

If your child is finishing school, or if you're navigating any kind of in-between right now, this episode is for you. Take the quiz at www.thecourageousmiddle.com/quiz to notice where you are in your own courageous middle. Or read the full blog post at www.thecourageousmiddle.com.

#9: The Courage Circle

jeudi 11 juin 2026 • Durée 14:43

What if trusting yourself didn't require a dramatic decision or a complete life overhaul? What if it started with just noticing?

In this episode, Lisa introduces the Courage Circle, a simple three-part practice grounded in awareness, curiosity, and choice. It's not a to-do list item. It's a way of being. A lens you can bring to any moment, any decision, any whisper that surfaces when life gets quiet enough to hear.

Lisa shares how one of her whispers arrived in 2016, quiet, unexpected, and impossible to ignore once she wrote it down. She walks through each step of the Courage Circle with honesty about what it actually looks like to practice it.

If you've been running on autopilot, this episode is an invitation to pause. One small moment of awareness. One curious question. One small step toward yourself.

#8: What it takes to choose yourself

jeudi 4 juin 2026 • Durée 13:47

We’ve been told that change happens in a moment, a leap, a lightning bolt, a breaking point that clarifies everything. And sometimes it does. But most of the time, that’s not the whole story.

In this episode, Lisa gets honest about what choosing yourself actually looks like from the inside. Not the dramatic version. The real one: slow, quiet, built out of small moments of awareness long before any visible shift.

If you’ve ever listened to someone else’s transformation story and wondered why yours feels so much messier and less certain, this episode is for you.

Lisa talks about what it looked like to walk toward leaving her corporate career, the role of honesty (not confidence) in starting change, why disruption is part of the process, and how self-trust is built, not found.

She also shares one small, practical practice for women who don’t know where to start: the “not right now” experiment.

Listen to this episode and then take a few quiet minutes with the quiz at www.thecourageousmiddle.com/quiz, a gentle way to notice where you are right now.
