Today we share a decisive shift - Edge of Real is becoming Midlife Confidence Lab - to best support women in a midlife transformation to move from self-reflection to embodied, practical confidence. The heart stays the same: honest stories, truth-telling, and those moments of knowing you are seen.

We walk through the why behind the rename and how it helps the right listeners find us. Midlife signals who we serve. Confidence names the skill most women ask for. Lab sets the tone: low-risk tests, iterative learning, and real-world tools for decision-making when certainty is scarce. You’ll hear how growth in coaching and speaking opened new doors, why performative confidence falls flat, and what durable self-trust looks like when careers shift, kids launch, relationships evolve, and your identity asks for a roomier definition.
Expect continuity where it matters - same host, same Tuesday cadence, same feed - and upgrades where we collectively desire more. We outline what’s changing with the title and cover art, why past episodes remain intact, and how our content will go deeper into the how: rebuilding self-trust after doubt, choosing well when fear is loud, and expanding your comfort zone instead of abandoning it. You’ll get fresh journal prompts and decide on one bold, doable action to schedule this week, plus a clear invitation to stop waiting for perfect and to start before you know the endgame.
If the idea of claiming your voice and acting on your inner knowing resonates, press play and join us in the Lab. Your next experiment starts now.
