    Friendship Breakups in Your 40s, Menopause Feedback & Midlife Mean Girls

    Today on 40ish Lauren wonders if Nicole is a totally new person post menopause. It kicks off with what may genuinely be the world’s worst lunch and ends as she rolls out of a hospital bed and attends a sip & paint evening (weird as she neither sips nor paints). The 40ish feedback on menopause education has been overwhelming and you are coming in all guns blazing. From rallying cries about women’s health and the absolute state of menopause support in the UK, to rightful rage about medical misogyny. This is the group chat energy we are here for! Today’s dilemma is a brutal one: being quietly dumped by your friendship group in your 40s. We unpack the rise of midlife “mean girls,” the paranoia of “is it me?,” and whether you should go full detective for closure or just block, delete, and emotionally relocate. Plus, we discuss the “7 year shed” Is it true we replace half our friends every 7 years? Because honestly, that explains a LOT. We have also been trolled and Lauren has plenty to say about it. (Mainly, stay under the bridge where you belong) If you’ve ever questioned a friendship, a life choice, or a £34 lunch that tasted like regret, this episode is for you. Get in touch!

    Midlife Spring Style Special

    Today on 40ish: Lauren ambushes Nicole with a Spring Style Special - a surprise absolutely nobody asked for (least of all Nicole), but like all good midlife crises, we commit and carry on anyway. Together they tackle the truly vital issues: are denim jackets officially mumsy now? And why someone calling Lauren “brave” for butter yellow nails is somehow both a compliment and an insult. They cover the reality of living in leggings, debating if New Look is no longer acceptable and wondering if co-ords are effortlessly chic or just giving pyjamas?  Also, Lauren has bought jelly shoes. Yes, really. No, we’re not okay. Expect tangents, mild outrage, and a cautionary tale from a listener of the “jelly bra” that promised lift, separation and miracles… and delivered absolutely none of the above.If you love it, share it with a friend who’s also standing in front of their wardrobe wondering what happened.

    Pesto, Patches & Public Farts: A Podcast of Petty Problems

    This week on 40-ish: Nicole is in BAD MOOD and Lauren is not helping by regaling her with her wholesome tale of foraging and pesto making. Of course, it wouldn’t be the podcast without a dilemma that makes you squirm. This week: what do you do when your judgy Mcjudge pants BFF best friend gets lip filler… and it’s not great? Should you say something, or take it to the grave? Elsewhere, expect the usual glorious tangents including the depressing moment when you realise you’re using No7 but your own child has upgraded to NARS, and a trip to the optician that took longer than a commercial flight to Europe. Finally, a listener meltdown that “trumps” all others. A sunny dog walk, a moment of overconfidence… and the horrifying realisation that you’ve been audibly farting in surround sound with an audience directly behind you the entire time. If you love the episode, share it with a friend who also enjoys a mix of chaos, candour, and questionable decision-making. Get in touch!

    HRT at the Pool, Menopause Questions & The Holiday Food Shop Fail

    This week on 40ish, Lauren is feeling self conscious about rocking up to the pool with her HRT patch fully on display and Nicole has zero empathy. She’s too busy wondering what happens post-menopause. Who are you when you arrive? Do you get a badge? A certificate? A lie down? Anyone? Meanwhile; A listener has spent good money on a thoughtful, meaningful 40th birthday gift for her sister only to discover she has quietly flogged it. Rude? Practical or deeply offensive? This week’s meltdown is a masterclass in idiocy. Imagine smugly organising a full online food shop for your holiday only to discover you sent it to the wrong house. Somewhere in the UK, a very confused family is enjoying a fully stocked fridge, while you’re stranded with nine hangry people. Honestly, we need a moment for this.

    Overpacking for Holidays, Menopause Drama & a Tricky Parenting Dilemma

    This week on 40ish, we’re discussing one of the most delusional acts of midlife optimism: packing holiday clothes for a version of yourself that absolutely does not exist. Does adulting mean that we have finally worked out that we just need the same two outfits on rotation and flat shoes? We’re also deep in a very important debate: what are we actually calling you lot? Fabbers (40 and fabulous, obviously) or Middlers Strong opinions welcome. Also, shoutout to the listener who is spreading the peace sign in traffic. In other feedback; One listener slid in with some strong opinions on our menopause chat. We’re not here to whisper politely. We’re loud, honest, occasionally unhinged, and very much ourselves. It won’t be for everyone and we’re oddly fine with that. Meanwhile, a mum is worried about her daughter’s weight gain. Do you say something or keep quiet and avoid knocking her confidence? It’s a tricky one. If you’re loving 40ish, share it with a friend ( ideally one who’s also packed five outfits but worn the same jumper for three days straight) Get in touch!

    Is It Hormones or Annoyance? WFH Washing Up Wars & Easter Egg Drama

    This week on 40ish, Lauren has to calculate exactly what a wee is worth and if a parking ticket is better or worse than wetting yourself. Nicol is debating whether she’s hormonally annoyed or just genuinely irritated… and whether there’s even a difference. Meanwhile we tackle a very relatable midlife dilemma about working from home, washing up wars, and the silent rage that builds when one partner washes only their own dishes and leaves the rest stacked like a passive-aggressive art installation. Plus, listener meltdowns include: the outrageous price of Easter eggs (and “bouji inclusions” that apparently cost extra now) and a full-scale marital chocolate war, featuring hidden Easter eggs, strategic quinoa placement, and a partner with the tracking ability of a trained Cadbury sniffer dogIf you enjoy honest chats about midlife relationships, marriage dilemmas, hormones, family life, and the ridiculous realities of being 40ish, this episode will feel painfully familiar.

    Am I Becoming a Hermit? Too Many Jeans and Social Burnout.

    This week on 40ish Lauren reveals the unreasonable number of jeans she owns - it’s essentially a denim museum at this point and Nicole is nostalgic about being grounded and realising she’s somehow become the parent she used to dramatically roll her eyes at. This week’s dilemma hits hard: Do you actually want to go out, or are you just going because society says you should leave the house occasionally? A listener questions the fine line between protecting her peace and slowly evolving into a happy little hermit. Plus, listener meltdowns include a yoga class invader with no concept of personal space, Lauren’s dead tree and Nicole’s emotional trauma with Lauren’s kitchen calendar. If you love this episode, share it with a friend who also secretly hopes plans get cancelled and owns too many jeans.Get in touch!

    Waving Goodbye, Hotmail Shame & the £100 Bottle of Wine

    In todays show: Lauren is sporting something brand new on her bum cheek and can’t wait to show Nicole - who is somewhat miffed at the pulling down of the pants live in the studio. We dive into the surprisingly emotional world of waving goodbye and tackle a very important midlife question: does having a Hotmail email address officially make you old, or should we all proudly keep our vintage inboxes and stop apologising for it? This week’s dilemma comes from a hairdresser whose client called for a 90-minute emotional chat and wonders whether the boundary between client and friend has been crossed? Plus, there’s a full meltdown involving throwing up and a listener rant that turns into a full relationship red flag discussion after she takes a new boyfriend out for his birthday and ends up paying for a £100 bottle of wine she didn’t even drink. Expect strong opinions, relatable annoyances and a bit of moral support for anyone navigating tricky boundaries. If you enjoyed this episode, share it with a friend with a hotmail address who waves you off at the door. Get in touch!
