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

Join me on this episode of Radiant Midlife, we're explore why so many midlife women feel tired and how that fatigue is a message to slow down, listen to the body, and shift into a feminine rhythm of leadership. We invite you to claim space, honor boundaries, and recalibrate energy through cyclical living.

• fatigue as guidance rather than a flaw
• overriding sacred yes and no drains energy
• codependency and approval patterns deplete reserves
• midlife hormonal shifts create a chance to reorient
• honoring cyclical rhythm restores presence and power
• first bleed, ritual absence, and the mother wound
• claiming space to listen to womb wisdom
• practical ways to pause, nourish, and hydrate
• redefining leadership through boundaries and alignment
• prosperity as a result of coherence, not overwork

Join myself Tara Preston, Host of Radiant Matriarch for an expansive paradigm shifting conversation around increasing over-flow in midlife & beyond.

In this episode we reclaim the joy of more by redefining it as nourishment, pleasure, and sovereignty rather than hustle, achievement, and depletion. We explore how nervous system capacity, deep listening, a reclamation of a woman's inner eco-system, emotional processing, and simple sacred acts create real overflow in midlife and beyond.

In this episode we cover:

• reframing more from achievement to nourishment
• conditioning that teaches women to override the body
• midlife recalibration through womb and heart listening
• building capacity for joy, vitality, and prosperity
• taking up space with boundaries and creative power
• somatic practice to discharge tension and receive more
• sovereignty as inner alignment that invites overflow

Now is the time. Maybe the maiden version of you gave herself away, but not the queen that you are becoming in midlife and beyond. It is time to claim yourself, and it is time to claim space for yourself.

Sovereignty Series 3 Week Transformation begins Wednesday: details: three 90-minute journeys, $250 USD (rising to $500 next round), begins Wednesday, October 22 at 11 a.m., recordings provided.

What if nourishment isn’t a reward for finishing your to-do list, but the foundation of your sovereignty?

Join myself Tara Preston, as I take you into a grounded, body-first exploration of feminine leadership—where the womb is the home’s center, radiance is regulation, and receiving is a practice you cultivate every single day.

Rather than pushing for worthiness, we unpack the hidden pattern of overgiving and show how slow food, sensual ritual, and creativity rebuild capacity from the inside out.

I share how the kitchen can become an altar and why texture, color, and scent awaken Shakti—the creative current that makes action feel effortless. We get honest about midlife depletion: adrenal fatigue, irregular cycles, inflammation, and the subtle ways cortisol hijacks clarity.

You’ll hear practical ways to rebalance—mineral-rich teas, supportive nutrition, gentler mornings, and rest woven into your cyclical rhythm—alongside deeper tools like Akashic record clearing, flower essences, and somatic practices that rewire patterns at their root.

We also draw a clean line between nervous system regulation and nervous system rewiring. One calms you now; the other changes your baseline so prosperity can land without push or panic.

Expect a clear path: self-mother the inner child, set clean boundaries, say yes to desire, and let your energy become magnetic instead of overextended. If you’re ready to feed yourself first—spiritually, emotionally, creatively, and physically—and lead with ease, this conversation offers both language and tools to begin.

Show Note Recap:

• reclaiming nourishment as sovereignty and infrastructure
• past-life and cultural patterns of female depletion
• the womb as the home’s nervous system
• kitchen as altar and slow receiving through food
• creative practice as life-force and circulation
• midlife repair: adrenals, cycles, inflammation
• regulation versus rewiring of the nervous system
• self-mothering the inner child to create safety
• boundaries, ease, and feminine prosperity

Burnout isn’t a personality trait—it’s a pattern we learned to survive. Today we get real about self-abandonment: how it forms in the motherline, why it spikes at growth edges, and how to rebuild a life where your body is listened to first. We move from abstract “self-care” to concrete, embodied practices that create safety, restore radiance, and make sustainable leadership possible.

I walk through the signs you’re crossing your energetic limit line, the subtle ways numbing masquerades as rest, and a simple morning framework to reclaim center.

Hand over heart, hand over womb, breath into the pelvic bowl—these small gestures rewire trust in your system. We explore somatic tools like swaying and hip circles, plus practical nourishment shifts—hydration, protein, nature, and clear boundaries—that stabilize your baseline.

You’ll hear how the Flower of Life Akashic Method supports untangling inherited depletion so you can harmonize with your own templates for prosperity, capacity, and flow.

If expansion has been feeling like a threat, this is your map back to yourself.

Mothering your needs isn’t indulgence; it’s infrastructure for sovereign leadership.

From there, you’ll create more with less push, speak fewer words with more weight, and lead from overflow rather than depletion.

After taking a hiatus from podcasting, I'm introducing the newly rebranded Radiant Matriarch podcast focused on helping midlife women reclaim their power, beauty, and wisdom during this transformational threshold.

• Midlife represents a magnificent opportunity for rebirth and reclamation, not diminishment
• Cultural narratives wrongly suggest women become "less than" when we actually step into deeper power
• By age 40, many women are depleted from years of pushing, doing, and overriding their cyclical nature
• Much of our depletion stems from generational patterns, mother line conditioning, and patriarchal systems
• Perimenopause symptoms often relate to long-term nutritional and energetic depletion
• The marketplace has turned menopause into a business, but the deepest healing begins with self-connection
• Powerful transformation requires asking: Where am I outsourcing my power? What am I hungry for?
• Akashic Records work helps clear emotional patterns stored in the body and untangle limiting beliefs
• Creative sexual energy in midlife can be harnessed for vision, leadership, and community contribution
• Practices like sacred nourishment, yoni steaming, and deep hydration support midlife radiance
