Life Coach BFF Show for Midlife Women

Heather Pettey and Dr. Carol Lynn co-host this weekly show, and their dynamic works because they bring genuinely different angles to the same topics. Heather is a certified life coach and Amazon bestselling author; Dr. Carol Lynn is an OB/GYN and menopause mentor. So when they talk about a midlife issue, you get both the mindset coaching perspective and the medical reality, often in the same episode. With 268 episodes and a perfect 5.0 rating from 110 reviewers, this is one of the most established midlife women podcasts out there. The format feels like an extended group chat between two friends who happen to be experts -- they riff on everything from marriage dynamics and empty nest emotions to hormone changes and goal-setting for women over 40. Recent episodes have covered topics like breaking out of autopilot mode in midlife and stepping into a new personal identity after years of defining yourself through family roles. The girlfriend-to-girlfriend delivery makes heavy topics feel approachable without dumbing them down. They have built a community around their Midlife Moxie brand, complete with a guided journaling practice. What sets this apart from other coaching podcasts is the consistent blend of emotional support and actionable strategies -- they will validate your frustration and then hand you a concrete next step. Episodes typically run 20-40 minutes, perfect for a commute or lunch break.
