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!

  • Midlife Body Aches & Frozen Shoulder
    May 9 2024

    EP 118: Are you a midlife woman experiencing intense shoulder pain? I was! Does your body just ache? Mine does. Is your doctor suggesting it’s just a pickle-ball injury or you just gotta push through the midlife grind? Mine was too! (even though I don’t play pickle-ball, lol) Are you knee deep digging through google for answers to why you can’t f*kn move your arms? Look no further because today’s guest has all the answers you are looking for about Frozen Shoulder, AKA Adhesive Capsulitis, the real medical term. And, the midlife “aches and pains” is called Arthralgia.

    Join me, Dr. Sarah Milken in an educational conversation called “Midlife Body Aches & Frozen Shoulder”. My repeat guest, Dr. Vonda Wright is a double board-certified orthopedic surgeon, best selling author and sought after speaker, empowering and educating women on longevity and health practices. I got so many messages about Frozen Shoulder that I asked her to come back and do a special episode answering all of your unanswered questions. We get into everything from the causes, treatments and prevention of Frozen Shoulder in midlife. And, we get into the midlife “aches and pains”! You won’t want to miss this episode.

    Listen to my previous experience and solo episode about Frozen Shoulder here: Snap, Crackle & Pop… Mystery Pains

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.

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.
