The Flexible Neurotic

By: Dr. Sarah Milken
  • Summary

  • Dr. Sarah Milken, aka The Flexible Neurotic, is wickedly smart, really fucking funny, and so relatable that you might just think she’s your real bff. When she hit midlife, she looked at her judgmental dog and thought, “damn, this can’t be it.” So she grabbed her golden shit shovel, confirmed her next botox appointment, and decided to remix midlife. You’ll get in-depth conversations with thought leaders, doctors and women just like you, who are not defined by age or some bullshit crisis, but rather continue to strive and ask for more for themselves. Sarah will guide you, and maybe make you laugh so hard you get the midlife sneeze pee. Grab your wine and let’s go!

    EP 116: As a midlife woman, do you want to find a “thing”, a passion, something that makes you feel connected to yourself and others? Me too! This mini episode has some serious and practical nuggets for you! Get ready for a step-by-step guide to reclaiming your time and creativity in the second half of our lives. My midlife hottie guest shares all the details of her research on cultivating creativity and framing what she calls our unicorn space, in midlife.

    This week we are doing another quick golden nugget mini-sode excerpt from my past conversation with New York Times best-selling author, Eve Rodksy. Today might be the day where you “get unstuck” and find the “thing” or take the first step on the “thing”. This is crucial for meaning and joy in midlife. We want time for passions and hobbies and midlife magic but we just don’t know where to fuck*n start.

    Enjoy this mini-sode, then dive into the full episode, where we get into so much more of Eve’s research. Finding Your Midlife Thing. A Step-By-Step Plan and You Don’t Have To Do It All To Have It All With Eve Rodsky.

  • Big Feelings… Real Tools
    Apr 18 2024

    EP 115: Parenting hormonal teens while battling hormones yourself?! Me too! You are not alone there and according to parenting expert Dr. Lisa Damour there are some tools in teaching them to navigate “big feelings”, while maintaining you are own sense of equilibrium, as a parent. Honestly, this was an amazing reminder for myself and I know that so many of you parents will be able to relate. Let’s face it, on top of working a career or being a “stay at home mom” or quasi or full “empty nester and mid-lifing, it’s also our job to set our kids up for emotional success by giving them the tools for self expression and emotional regulation. These are the tools they will carry with them their whole lives and Dr. Lisa is here to break it down for us.

    This week we are doing another quick golden nugget mini-sode excerpt from The Flexible Neurotic Archive. This conversation was with Dr. Lisa Damour, a recognized thought leader by the American Psychological Association. She’s a best selling author, speaker and host of the podcast, Ask Lisa: The Psychology of Parenting. This conversation is always a good one to come back to on parenting teens and helping them manage their emotions, while we manage our own.

    Check out this minisode, then dive into the full episode, where we get into so much more on parenting, the teenage hormonal stew, and building strong connections with your kids. “Midlife Parents Managing The Teenage Buffet Of “Big Feelings”... Real Tools!”

I love this life altering Podcast.

I totally love this podcast. Dr. Sarah really takes the time to make, "it real!" Mid-life isn't easy. Being a female compounds the challenges. I love and appreciate how she makes all her topics genuine. As my days creep closer to my 50th Birthday 🎂 I find myself excited. Ready to start this new adventure.
