Description

What happens when life doesn't go according to plan? Hosted by mother-daughter duo Amanda Segal and Nicette Beinart, The Midlife Pivot explores the powerful transitions, unexpected detours, and extraordinary reinventions that shape our lives. Midlife isn’t an ending or a crisis, it’s a crossroads. Whether a pivot happens by choice or out of necessity, this show is about saying "yes" to the journey and discovering that the plot twist you never saw coming might just lead to the best chapter yet.

In their own lives, Amanda and Nicette have navigated monumental shifts. Nicette took a brave leap at age 51, packing up her life in South Africa to immigrate to the United States and recreate her world from scratch. Amanda has faced her own defining pivots, from overcoming weight challenges and building a vibrant Peloton community, to navigating empty nest syndrome, transitioning careers after nearly three decades, managing menopause, and charting a new path following the end of a 35-year marriage. Together, they bring warmth, wisdom, and an infectious "glass half-full" perspective to life's biggest changes.
