How to have Extraordinary Relationships New Year New You looking for the glimmer of gold in 2026 with Narelle Chidwick | S4- Special Episode
Narelle Chidwick is the creator behind Instagram’s midlife.reallife, where she champions a “live more with less” philosophy focused on mind, body, food & mood for women navigating mid-life.
Based in [location unspecified], she blends honest conversation about ageing, lifestyle change and simplifying life with practical 15-minute tips, everyday wins and an inclusive, no-judgement tone. Her content invites followers to treat transitions — whether physical, emotional or environmental — as invitations rather than obstacles.
Her journey also includes turning a personal health wake-up (a diagnosis of Osteoporosis in her 40s) into a mission to educate and empower others about bone-health, nutrition, and strength in later-life.
With a loyal Instagram following (over 9,000) and a steady stream of posts, reels and reflections, Narelle has built a community of women who want more from mid-life than just “coasting” — they want clarity, vitality and purpose.
