Two Women Chatting
Season 10 has arrived!
Michelle is joined by beloved broadcaster Gaby Roslin - known for The Big Breakfast, Morning Live, and Magic Radio - to explore how joy, kindness, and colour can transform our lives. Drawing from her uplifting book Spread the Joy, Gaby shares simple, science-backed ways to bring positivity into every day, from smiling at strangers to literally jumping for joy.
Gaby opens up about her lifelong shyness, how she found confidence through connection, and why laughter and silliness are her secret weapons against life’s challenges. She also talks about media ageism, women’s self-image, and why she refuses to apologise for her love of neon. With heartfelt reflections on friendship, creativity, and saying “no” with grace, this conversation is an instant mood booster.
Welcome!
The midlife space for laughter, inspiration and community
At Two Women Chatting, we are passionate about supporting and empowering midlife women. Our platform is dedicated to offering informative, entertaining content that inspires, uplifts and offers helpful advice.
Our podcast conversations cover an array of topics related to midlife such as health and wellness, relationships, the empty nest and self-discovery sometimes chatting about topics that are not comfortable but need to be discussed.
As we research topics and guests for our podcast we discover amazing websites and platforms relevant to midlife women so we created a midlife library of blogs, resources, guides and contacts which are regularly added.
If you are a woman in your 40’s, 50’s, 60’s or beyond this is your place, your sanctuary!
Welcome to the community!
love
Michelle and the TWC team

I'm a 'professional empty nester'! Whether it's your first or last kid leaving the nest, this time of our lives is such a rollercoaster of emotions. Believe me - I get it. I've gone through it three times already and I think I can help you. I've got blogs, episodes and reels to help, guide and support. Check out my midlife library and type in 'empty nest' for great blogs. Listen to Before They Go, After They Leave and Flying the Nest (with Dr Dominique Thompson) and Louise Minchin episodes. Follow me on insta for supportive reels and to hear my chat with Dr Claire Kaye, executive coach and new empty nester.
