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 â the unfiltered, unapologetic era where we stop chasing who we were and start owning who weâre 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 youâre 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: youâre not too old â youâre just getting started.
This is your comeback tour.
Your permission slip to evolve, not age.
Letâs make it a damn good chapter.
The Midlife Edit
Haunted by the Woman You Used to Be
đŹ Episode Summary:
In this raw and reflective episode, Jen opens up about the emotional weight of being haunted by the woman she used to beâthe version of herself that spent years performing, people-pleasing, and conforming to be accepted.
From doing things she didnât want to do just for attention (good or bad), to losing sight of who she really was (or maybe never fully knowing), this is a vulnerable look at how many of us, especially in midlife, are finally waking up to the realization that we donât want to go backâwe want to come home to ourselves.
If youâve ever felt like you were building your identity on what everyone else needed from you⌠this episode will speak to your soul.
đ In This Episode, Jen Talks About:
- How and why we shapeshift to gain approval and love
- The exhaustion of constantly performing for acceptance
- What happens when you wake up and realize you donât know who you are anymore
- Grieving your former selfâwith compassion
- The hard lesson that you canât change people who donât want to change
- Reclaiming your voice, boundaries, and identity in midlife
- Letting go of the old you, so you can finally meet the real you
