GCSE exam stress. It’s an emotive and important topic for many mid lifers. Not only because it’s tough to see your child under so much pressure, but because you’ll inevitably need to navigate the highs and lows - which of course, deeply impact you and the rest of the family. That’s why we’re thrilled to have Paul and Emily Hughes from parentguidetogcse.com on the show, giving their practical advice and solutions on how to help your child reach their maximum potential and make this tricky time more bearable. Having spent 15 years at teachers, they not only have great resources but a wonderful supportive community. The Midlife Male Handbook available now:AmazonWaterstonesWH Smith Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

Sugar. It’s highly addictive, hidden in every day food we consume and is responsible for the huge surge in diabetes around the world - causing approximately 500 unnecessary premature deaths each week in the UK. By 2025 it’s estimated just under 5 million people in the UK will suffer with the disease and we believe not enough is being done to warn people of the damaging, long term implications of sugar on their mental and physical health. Mid lifers - don’t be another statistic. Listen to this podcast so you can not only increase your chances of living a long life, but safeguard the quality of it. The Midlife Male Handbook available now:AmazonWaterstonesWH Smith Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

We've wanted to give up. We've all wanted to give up. It's natural. Sometimes it feels to hard, too emotional, too much of a struggle. That's the focus of this episode. The past few months have been challenging - so much so it threw us off course delivering these wonderful podcasts. But we're back with a bang and without a doubt, this is one of the most vulnerable, open and most importantly, highly relevant episode we've recorded. In this episode we get down and dirty about how we've managed to pull ourselves back from some seriously life changing stuff...and come out of it with a greater sense of power, purpose and self acceptance.

Life has thrown us a few BIG curveballs - hence a slightly longer gap between Season 2 and Season 3. But we’re here - living in central London and loving every single moment of it. In this episode, we share how this particular curve ball has made us even more determined and committed to inspiring you to thrive. We touch upon why we believe so many of you write in to us with the same challenges. Why, it seems, so many people feel lost and dissatisfied with their life and to a degree, don’t know where to begin turning it around. This episode is perhaps a little controversial - but it’s designed to give comfort and understanding. Along with some nuggets of wisdom to support you through mid life.https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/T3YCLPRThe Midlife Male Handbook available now:AmazonWaterstonesWH Smith Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

In this final episode of Season 2, Claire & James share their story. They often get asked how they got together, how long they've known each other, what they did before and if they've always been into fitness (to name but a few). They share their highs and lows vulnerably and honestly - in the hope that it inspires others never to give up on themselves or their dreams. They hope you enjoy it.The Midlife Male Handbook available now:AmazonWaterstonesWH Smith Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.

In this episode Claire & James talk to Jenny Bracelin - a highly sought after Money Coach about transforming our often tricky relationship with money, by addressing our limiting beliefs. At mid life many of us experience the squeeze of mortgages, children, ageing parents and feel trapped by our current financial situation. Our conditioning around money can bring up a great deal of frustration and fear -  preventing us from reaching our fullest potential and living a life on our terms, doing what we enjoy. However, just like our health, it's never too late to address the issue and luckily - the wonderful Jenny has some fantastic tips and advice on how to heal our money blocks so we can thrive, not just survive.The Midlife Male Handbook available now:AmazonWaterstonesWH Smith Please remember, if you find the show helpful or it makes you laugh, motivates and inspires you - please do like, share and rate us.
