Embracing Change and Rediscovery with Philippa Page
We’ve just dropped a truly heartwarming and honest episode on the Midlife Energy Podcast — and if you’re a member of the Midlife Energy Club (which you are, you legend), you’re in for an extra treat.
In this episode, I chat with Philippa Page, a mother of five, grandmother, and seasoned health professional with over 40 years of nursing experience — including three decades as a midwife and years in family health and emergency care. But beyond her impressive credentials, Philippa is a woman who’s moved gracefully (and sometimes messily) through midlife, empty nesting, reinvention, and rediscovery.
🔍 In the conversation, we explore:
- The emotional shifts that come with becoming an empty nester
- How midlife doesn’t always fit into a box (and why that’s okay)
- What identity loss really feels like after years of motherhood
- How to create meaningful support structures and friendships post-parenting
- Her honest and refreshingly simple take on self-care — especially for women living remotely
- Why community, movement, and curiosity are non-negotiables for well-being
Philippa shares her lived truth with such humility and strength. Whether you’re still wiping lunchboxes, watching your adult kids fly the nest, or rediscovering your own joy for the first time in decades, you’ll feel deeply seen in this episode.
🌟 Bonus Segment – Just for You!
Inside the Midlife Energy Club community, Philippa and I go a layer deeper. In our exclusive bonus segment, she answers unscripted questions about:
- Her real daily rituals (no fluff, just what works)
- How she coped emotionally in the quiet moments after her kids left
- Starting an online business at 54 (yes, really!)
- The importance of saying “yes” to new adventures — even if they terrify you
This part of the interview is raw, practical, and made especially for women like you who are ready to reclaim, reframe, and re-energise their next chapter.
