Midlife is not an ending — it’s a turning point. I’m Diseph Igoni, a licensed therapist specializing in women’s midlife mental health. Each week, I explore the emotional and psychological shifts of midlife with honesty and care. I created The Pause Culture Podcast to explore the deeper, often overlooked emotional and mental health aspects of midlife. While much is said about the physical changes of menopause and aging, we don’t often hear about the psychological and cultural shifts happening alongside them. This is a space where midlife is more than menopause. Each week, you’ll hear honest insights and reflections about the unspoken (and often misunderstood) realities of midlife—from identity shifts and career pivots to relationships, aging, and yes, menopause—all through a therapeutic lens grounded in mental wellness, empowerment, and care. This podcast features solo episodes and occasional guest conversations, weaving storytelling, resource sharing, practical strategies, and therapeutic perspective into every episode. Whether you’re in the middle of a major change or quietly wondering what’s next, you’re not alone. This is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with who you are now. Let’s talk about it.

  • S1, E1- Life In the Mid: A Midlife Origin Story
    Jun 8 2025
    Welcome to The Pause Culture Podcast, where midlife is more than just menopause. In this first episode, I share my personal and professional journey that led me to this space — one shaped by aging, navigating perimenopausal symptoms, confronting gaps in mental health knowledge, and advocating for myself along the way. I talk about what Pause Culture really means, why I created this platform, and how taking control of my midlife narrative has become an active, ongoing process. This episode is an invitation to reflect, connect, and engage in honest conversation about what it means to live fully and intentionally in this season. This isn’t just my story — it’s a dialogue I hope will inspire yours. Welcome to the pause that changes everything.

  • S1, E4- The Many Roads to Menopause-No Two Journeys Are the Same
    Jun 29 2025
    Menopause isn’t a one-way street—and for many women, the road is anything but straightforward. In this episode, we explore the many ways women enter menopause: naturally, medically, surgically, prematurely, and everything in between. Whether your experience came gradually, suddenly, or left you feeling unprepared, your story matters. You’ll hear about natural vs. early vs. premature menopause, the impact of surgical menopause and chronic illness, the emotional, relational, and physical weight of transition, why cultural silence does more harm than good, and how to ask for what you need—and why you absolutely deserve to. This is a compassionate, honest look at what it really means to cross the bridge into menopause—and a reminder that however you got here, you’re not alone.
