The Midlife Rebel Podcast - Your Second Act Starts Here
Midlife Rebel is a podcast for women in their 40s and 50s who feel like something is shifting — even if they can’t quite explain it.
In 2022, I hit my own turning point. I stopped drinking, had my first Human Design reading, and started questioning a lot of what I thought I knew about life. What some people call a midlife crisis, I came to see differently — as a midlife awakening.
Because at this stage of life, things do start to change.
Your body. Your roles. Your priorities.
And the questions get bigger.
Who am I now?
What actually matters to me?
How do I navigate hormones and menopause in a way that works for me?
How do I stay vital as I get older?
What does purpose look like from here?
I wasn’t prepared to just follow the old story — that it’s all downhill from here.
I wanted answers. I wanted to feel better in my body. And I knew there had to be more to this stage of life than what we’ve been told.
On this podcast, I explore these questions through conversations with a wide range of guests — from health practitioners and authors to coaches and everyday women navigating their own version of midlife.
We talk about:
– health, hormones, and staying well in midlife
– burnout, stress, and emotional wellbeing
– purpose, identity, and starting over
– menopause, sobriety, and lifestyle change
– and the more esoteric side of things, including Human Design, astrology, and personal growth
This isn’t about blowing up your life. It’s about finding your truth and rewriting the old story — because there’s a little bit of rebel in all of us.
