For women already in motion.

Midstride explores how to keep growing without believing you need to start over. Through thoughtful conversations, we examine health, wealth, work, relationships, identity, beauty, and the choices that shape a well-lived life.

forward, with intention

You're not starting from zero. You're building from experience.

Midstride is for women who are already in motion. By now, we have experience, relationships, accomplishments, mistakes, responsibilities, and momentum.

Growth does not always require reinvention. Sometimes it means deciding what to carry forward, what to leave behind, and what deserves more of your attention.

Where you are now can be a starting point without being the beginning.

Conversations that shape a well-lived life.

Each episode brings together experts, leaders, and interesting voices to explore the choices that shape a well-lived life, from health and money to work, relationships, identity, beauty, and what it means to live with greater clarity and intention.

Dr. Olivia Cardenas-Trowers

Olivia is a physician, surgeon, and women's health specialist who has spent her career caring for women and thinking deeply about what helps them live well.

Over time, that work led her to questions that extend beyond the exam room: how we think about health, ambition, money, relationships, identity, beauty, home, and what makes a life feel meaningful.

Midstride grew from a simple belief: growth does not require becoming an entirely different person. We are already in motion, and we are already building from experience.
