Hi, I’m Lucie. Five years ago, the emotional turmoil of midlife turned my life into a sh*tstorm.  To make things worse, I had no idea that my chaotic emotions were due to the roller coaster of midlife. I thought I was crazy, and I felt completely alone. ​ Now, I help women survive (or avoid) the midlife meltdown with my podcast, The Roller Coaster, but it’s time to dive deeper and create the conne...

Do you ever look around at all the “stuff” that you have and wonder, where the hell it all came from? Over the course of the past 15 years, we’ve made 4 major moves, and each time we’ve decluttered in one way or another. In fact, one of the moves we made, was with just our clothes and a few personal items. Yet, somehow only 4 years later despite promising myself that I wouldn’t let it happen, a on...

Why can’t I sleep? That question has been on my mind, on and off, for several years. Sleep is essential to both our mental and physical health, and not getting enough sleep or good quality sleep, can wreak havoc on our lives. I know that I’m not alone, whether it’s hormones, stress, or something else, so many people are saying that sleep has become an issue for them. Being aware of the situation a...

When I first came across a video of someone using EFT, emotional freedom techniques, also known as tapping, I thought, what is this crazy ass guy doing. Repeating phrases and tapping on different places on his body. Fast forward a few years and I’ve learned a little more about it and even played around with tapping. But it still felt kind of weird and I keep getting caught up in if I was doing it...

Many women in midlife begin to crave a different experience in life and feel the pull to venture down a new path. I know for me, as my kids became more independent, I started to question what was next. Who was I beyond mom and wife? How would I rediscover what I was meant to do?  It was confusing and I had no idea where to start. Eventually, I built a morning routine centred around journaling, med...

The last few days have been a little rough, as you can probably tell from my voice, I’ve been sick, but I also haven’t been sleeping well even before I got sick. Really, I can’t remember when the last time was that I slept for 8 hours and woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. I’ve had my hormone levels tested and they came back “normal” but I know, something is off and for me, I have to dig d...

As summer ends and we’re all getting back to regular routines, it’s a good time to take a breath and reflect on the challenges that we’ve encountered over the past two years and the ones that still lay ahead. Many of us get through things by pushing ahead, and that also usually means that we’re suppressing our feelings and using that F-word. You know what I mean, saying FINE when really, deep down...

At some point in our lives, the emotional baggage we’ve been carrying around begins to weigh us down and we get stuck. The problem is that we may not even realize it when we become stuck.

Joining me today is Donna Tashjian, a Life Mastery Coach, an ordai...

Have you ever wondered why you do what you do? Why breaking repeating patterns is so tough and replacing them with new ones even harder? Is it possible to create real and lasting change? What would you say if I told you that you could change the behaviours, traits and beliefs that have been passed down to you? That’s right, passed down to, beliefs that are NOT true and NOT real. Today’s guest, Jan...

I don’t know about you but it feels like I woke up in my forties and the wheels were falling off of my wagon. My sleep schedule was all off, I was an emotional wreck, and my thoughts seems to be clouded in a thick fog. It took me a while to clue into that it was likely all caused by my hormones and the fast-approaching menopause. Joining me for this episode is Christ Elza, a nurse practitioner spe...

In this episode we chat about: How you can preserve your words of wis...

TGIF, thank God it’s Friday is a mantra that has been spoken for decades. We seem to be conditioned to live our lives for the weekends as if that’s where happiness can be found. We’ve been conditioned to believe that happiness is something that is attached to things that are in our outer world. That happiness is found in the things that we have rather than who we are. The great resignation is a si...
