Episode 5

Get Out of that Rut! - special guest Megan Ragsdale

Welcome to the Middle Age(ish) Podcast, hosted by Ashley Bedosky, Lisa Kelly, Dr. Pam Wright, and Trisha Kennedy Roman. In this episode, we speak with Megan Ragsdale, author of the book Risky Women.

Megan is an accomplished certified executive coach, author, and innovator, with a passion of helping others get out of their own way and reach their full potential! She is charismatic, captivating, and offers such valuable insight and pearls into getting out of the self created ruts and resetting your mindset.

Megan, Ashley, and Pam talk about their own health crises that led to them realizing they needed to change their focus and prioritize what mattered most. Lisa talks about life on the road touring as a professional singer, and how she needed to make changes for her own physical and mental health as a mom. Trisha talks about how this podcast really hits home as a reminder to live in the moment and not focus on the past or future worries that might not ever come to fruition.

"My real plea for women is to not do what I did, which was to wait until you have two mini strokes and have that be a result of your over-functioning and stress and not taking care of yourself. That is what brought me to a really full transformation in my own life from a health perspective, emotional, cognitive, the whole 360.  I had to really, really prioritize it ." – Megan Ragsdale - Author of Risky Women

Megan talks about the conditioning we have had as women throughout our lives to play it safe and focus on being who we think everyone wants and needs us to be.

"Dropping the expectations and really just taking that risk of being who you really are, I mean, that's the most rebellious act that any of us can do as women." – Megan Ragsdale - Author of Risky Women

We all so enjoyed our time with Megan and hope we can chat with her again in the future. She was an absolute joy and a total ceiling buster!
