  • Summary

  • Welcome to 40ish! Brought to you by the hosts of the award winning podcast Self care Club, Lauren Mishcon and Nicole Goodman -two 40ish women who went searching for a podcast that truly spoke to their age group - Where was the show that captured the sheer, hilarious chaos of midlife? The one that understood the juggling act of teens, aging parents, career pivots, and hormones that have a mind of their own? When they couldn’t find it, they made it. 40ish is the podcast that midlifers deserve. A space where they tackle real dilemmas, rant about the absurdities of aging, and share every embarrassing moment—because if they're living through it, they are damn well laughing at it. And honestly, at this stage of life, comedy isn’t just entertainment. It’s survival. Get ready for candid conversations and a lot of laughter as this funny duo explore middle aged angst and (attempt) to solve all your dilemmas. Follow us on Instagram @40ish.podcast

  • Period necklaces, Parking & Homebase

    Period necklaces, Parking & Homebase
    May 8 2025
    This week on 40ish a woman asks if it’s sweet or if it’s weird to give her daughter a necklace to celebrate her first period. Lauren is hoping the idea may inspire Nicole’s husband to buy her a very special wedding anniversary gift. Plus, a listener asks what happened to her rock n’roll husband who used to play the guitar but now the only bass he is interested in is Homebase. We love to hear from you!

  • Picky Bits, Adulting & the Memorial Bench

    Picky Bits, Adulting & the Memorial Bench
    May 1 2025
    This week on 40ish, Lauren is installing a memorial bench (a bit pre-emptive for someone who is still living) whilst Nicole has a crash course in adulting when a youngster crashes into her car. A listener is fed up being used as a free Uber service by her colleagues and a prawn ring turns into a boxing ring when angry words are exchanged after a nice “picky bits in the garden” afternoon goes horribly wrong. Grab your carrot sticks and hummus and tune in for a serving of midlife meltdowns. We love to hear from you!
