The Midlife Edit
The Midlife Edit Podcast is where reinvention meets a killer playlist.
Hosted by Jen Weinstein, this is your backstage pass to midlife — the unfiltered, unapologetic era where we stop chasing who we were and start owning who we’re becoming. From fitness and nutrition to mindset, mental health, family, and the soundtrack that got us here, every episode hits a different note of what it means to rewrite your story and rediscover your power.
Whether you’re lifting weights, lifting your mood, or just trying to hold it all together between school drop-offs and 90s playlists, Jen brings honest conversations, real-life advice, and the occasional rock lyric that reminds you: you’re not too old — you’re just getting started.
This is your comeback tour.
Your permission slip to evolve, not age.
Let’s make it a damn good chapter.
