Women in the Middle: Loving Life After 50

Suzy Rosenstein is a Master Certified Life Coach who has been putting out weekly episodes since 2017, and the show has crossed 450 episodes -- which is a serious commitment to this audience. The vibe is equal parts practical and personal, which is hard to pull off. Suzy talks about the messy middle of life after 50: career pivots that feel terrifying, empty nests that are lonelier than expected, body changes nobody prepared you for, relationship shifts, and the nagging feeling that maybe there is something more out there. She mixes solo episodes where she coaches directly through common struggles with guest interviews that bring in outside perspectives and fresh expertise. What keeps listeners coming back is her no-nonsense delivery. She will call out the excuses we all make while still being genuinely encouraging about what is possible. The show holds a strong 4.8 rating with nearly 300 reviews, and long-time listeners describe it as feeling like a conversation with a smart friend who happens to have a coaching degree and is not afraid to be blunt. Episodes typically run 20-40 minutes, making them easy to fit into a walk or commute. Suzy is particularly good at naming the specific fears that women over 50 carry around but rarely say out loud, and then offering actual strategies and frameworks instead of vague motivational quotes.
