Join myself host, Tara Preston & guest Colin Jackson for this weeks episode of Radiant Midlife where we chat about creating a foundation of sustainable and holistic training habits for midlife women.

Your body is changing, your schedule is packed, and the internet won’t stop shouting “fix your menopause belly.”

On this episode we take a moment to just breathe, turn down the noise, and build real strength that actually supports your midlife life. I’m joined by Coach Colin Jackson—a women’s fitness specialist and registered massage therapist—who has spent over a decade helping women 35+ lift heavier, sprint smarter, and feel genuinely at home in their bodies.

The conversation also names the cultural headwinds: the constant pressure for smallness and quick fixes. Instead of chasing shrinking goals, we choose power. You’ll hear how strength work can ease joint aches as the body regains stability, why plant-forward meals, fiber, sleep, and walking amplify results, and how to move from foundation to optimization using tempo, rep schemes, and rest intervals that target specific adaptations without losing the basics.

We dig into what intensity really means and why heavy compound lifts in the six to ten rep range outperform endless circuits for muscle, joint stability, and bone density.

If you’re ready to trade fatigue for focus and comparison for capability, this is your roadmap. Take a listen, & learn to celebrate your wins. Whether it's two to three weekly strength sessions, a short sprint finisher, or a consistent bedtime—and watch your capacity for strength & vitality in midlife grow.

🌹The Mother Wound & Perimenopause: Why Midlife Becomes the Portal of Reclamation🌹

In today’s episode of Radiant Midlife, we’re diving into a powerful and often unspoken truth:

Perimenopause doesn’t create the Mother Wound — it reveals it.

As midlife unfolds, your hormones shift, your nervous system becomes more sensitive, and the parts of you that have been holding everything together begin to unravel… not because you’re breaking down, but because your body is finally safe enough to show you what’s ready to be healed.

In this conversation, Tara explores:

✨ What the Mother Wound actually is (beyond the mainstream explanations)

✨ Why perimenopause amplifies old patterns of self-abandonment, over-giving, and emotional labor

✨ The biological + energetic reasons why truth rises to the surface in midlife

✨ The somatic symptoms that signal transformation — not decline

✨ How your womb and nervous system work together to guide your next evolution

✨ Why healing the Mother Wound is the gateway into your sovereign, matriarchal era

✨ The reclamation available when you shift from survival to womb-led power

You’ll walk away with a deeper understanding of your body’s wisdom, compassion for what you’ve been navigating, and a new lens for viewing perimenopause as a sacred initiation — not a collapse.

This episode is for the woman who knows she can’t keep doing things the old way…

and is ready to come home to herself.

Join myself Tara Preston, as I explore how midlife becomes a portal to rebuild feminine power by rewiring the nervous system, clearing wounded masculine patterns, and restructuring daily life to support flow. I talk about how practical boundaries, nourishment, and soul-level healing converge to create ease, vitality, and leadership.

• defining feminine power as anchored presence and flow
• the cost of hustle culture on womb vitality and hormones
• identifying wounded masculine patterns of control and suppression
• using the Akashic Records to clear ancestral and past-life threads
• stabilizing the nervous system for ease and creative power
• embodiment through nourishment, rituals, and time in nature
• setting boundaries and using voice to claim space
• restructuring home, work, and money to serve the feminine
• cycle breaking and lineage healing in the matriarchal path
