About this listen

 In this transformative episode of Wine, Whiskey, and Life, Michelle sits down with James Davis, coaching psychologist, men’s health advocate, and creator of The Midlife Mentors podcast for a no-holds-barred conversation on what it really takes for men to rise through the mess of midlife.James shares hard-won insights from his own life and work, pulling back the curtain on the silent epidemic of social isolation, the emotional fallout of divorce, and the toll of trying to go it alone. But this isn’t about staying stuck, it’s about the comeback.Together, they explore how vulnerability, real connection, and small, consistent changes, like better nutrition, gratitude, and honest conversations can rebuild confidence and reshape identity. They also unpack how to reignite relationships with the DATE framework (Doing, Action, Time, and Excitement) and why aligning with your true values is the ultimate power move.If you're ready to ditch the lone wolf mindset and get real about the work and the rewards of reclaiming your life, this one’s for you. Straight talk, solid tools, and a reminder that you’re not alone.

Key Takeaways & Lessons:
  • Isolation isn’t strength, it’s sabotage. Connection is the real comeback move.

  • Vulnerability fuels growth. Dropping the mask opens the door to real transformation.

  • Small changes = big momentum. Daily shifts in habits rebuild confidence from the ground up.

  • DATE your relationship back to life. Doing, Action, Time, and Excitement can reignite connection.

  • Reclaim your purpose. Midlife isn’t a crisis it’s a call to align with who you are now.
