We’re absolutely fine but…we might have a bit of September dread. Not that shiny new term feeling, with a fat pencil case and a fresh notebook, but more of a 'holy fuck it is only four months until 2025 and what have we achieved!?!’ kinda thing. Anyway to lessen the load we put together the best bits from two wise souls we talked to this year. Psychotherapist Emma Reed Turrell, whose book What Am I Missing? is about why, after years of therapy, we sometimes still find ourselves stuck. She unpicks some of the knottiness that holds us back through four blind spot profiles: Are you a rock, a hustler, a gladiator or a bridge? We warn you: they are horribly resonant. And next we have the lovely Cariad Lloyd. Sadly, her father died suddenly when she was 15 and, after years of floundering, she took her grief and turned it into a beautiful living thing: her award-winning podcast Griefcast and her wonderful book You Are Not Alone, which is out in paperback. We talk grief myths, why the process doesn’t happen in a straight line, how to support people who have lost someone and why all that really matters is showing up…Anyway, this is not a self-help podcast but we hope it helps. Let us know how you are doing. And we’ll see you in September…PS: It’s our 200th episode…thank you so much for listening.

I'm Absolutely Fine! by The Midult
Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. This week we talk about Emilie turning 50 and why transitions are weird. Speaking of weird transitions, this is the last episode of the podcast for now. After three million downloads, six years and 237 episodes, we are taking a break in order to focus on some other, exciting things. Please join us on Instagram , where we’ll still be posting, ranting and raving. Thank you to our gorgeous producer Chelsey for putting up with us week after week; all the lovely sponsors who believed in us; all the extraordinary guests who gave us free therapy, enlightened us, made us laugh and cry. It has been such a privilege to be part of the podverse - here’s to leaping off the edge and defying gravity. See you on the other side… Learn more about your ad choices.

Are you a functioning panic-aholic? Are we reaching our panic rock bottom? Or is it bottomless panic like bottomless brunch but very much less fun? We discuss this and why fairy lights might be the only things lighting our souls right now. Plus an eyeliner trick to make your eyes pop - in a good way… Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. Anyway this week we talk about how we are almost unable to cope with the sheer volume of feedback/surveys/opinions demanded of us via email and text and phone: ‘TELL US HOW WE DID” they ask, then beg, then order us. Couldn’t they just wait for us to complain - which we can’t be bothered to do? To distract us we talk about the power of perfume to give us armour (Annabel wears fragrance every day) and to remind us of people, places, things…Starring Miller Harris, Cire Trudon, Chanel, Dyptique, Jo Malone London and Narciso Rodriguez.

Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. This week we go retro and talk about Rivals: unashamedly joyful romp or uncomfortable reminder of the inequities of the 80s? How much has really changed? Also - are there any Midults out there not devoted to lip balm? Do you have one in every desk drawer, coat pocket, bottom of bag? Is it less a lip balm, more a balm for our frazzled synapses? Lip balms supporting our existential crises this week include By Terry Baume de Rose Lip Balm , Carmex Classic Lip Pot Balm , Vaseline Lip Therapy Tin in Rosy Lips , Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask in Mango and Ciate Watermelon Burst 2-in-1 Everyday Lip Mask & Balm … We’ve clearly gone balmy.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week we’re taking a break from rifling through Annabel’s beauty drawers - instead we’ve gone to the vault and an episode we recorded last year about poetry. Because let’s face it, we are a little desperate for a corner of calm that we can tuck ourselves into; a mini-escape that is not demanding or exhausting or expensive. Our guest Allie Esiri found a way to calm the wild voices in her head; she is a poetry anthologist who harnesses our extraordinary literary resources to offer - if not a solution - then a balm for the soul. Of course, you might be thinking, ‘How is reading a poem a day going to make me feel less mad, vulnerable, sad, tired, stretched, defeated?’…Well, Allie came and talked about poetry. Read a few of her favourites. Recommended a few others. Does poetry have the power to make us feel a little less alone? Have a listen. Allie’s book 365 Poems for Life is out now… Normal service will resume next week, and when we say ‘normal’, we mean that term loosely, obviously… Learn more about your ad choices.

Happy Friday! Just slipping into your feed to let you know that the week is nearly over, and there’s only one more week to go before we have to get through the next week. Ok so Annabel is teaching Emilie to darn. YES, DARN. Because, MOTHS. But it’s not all rock ‘n roll. We also talk about parties (not dreading at all) and Annabel delivers a Midiot’s guide to blusher, so we don’t go out into the world looking like Victorian consumptives/Aunt Sally. She recommends Merit Flush Balm Cheek Colour in Cheeky; Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand in Pillow Talk and Jones Road Lip and Cheek Stick in Bright Coral…Check out our Instagram for the tutorials...

Ok we’re back, August is in full flow and we have stitched together our favourite bits from Podcast from the Edge: remember the time we gave up complaining?

Hi everyone, it’s podcast mash-up time! We’re starting with two of our favourite guests from the past year. First up is the incomparable Sophie Williams: There are few people as fluent, compassionate and authoritative and she came on the podcast to talk about her latest book, The Glass Cliff: Why Women in Power are Undermined and How To Fight Back . She was of course sensational; making us a little angry and lot more informed. Brace yourselves and have a listen... After Sophie Williams, there’s another friend of the pod. There aren’t many people who can go by just one name: Madonna, Cher, Beyonce and….Trinny. And we all need a Trinny in our lives, so here she is talking positivity and how she finds the confidence, hell, the energy to keep - well - flourishing so magnificently…plus her beauty must-haves.
