Your Magical Midlife
Calling all wildflowers, late bloomers, seekers and dreamers: Your Magical Midlife is for women 40+ who never (quite) fit in.
I'm Kate Higgins, a licensed therapist turned coach. I walk women through the portal of midlife using four archetypes: The Maiden, The Mother, The Empress and The Crone-each phase bringing wounds and wisdom.
This podcast is part confessional, part advice column, and part deep dive interviews with untamed woman living lives of their own creation. If you're tired of midlife content geared towards losing weight and "fixing" yourself, you're in the right place.
When I was struggling through menopause and the reckoning that is aging, the only support available to me was focused on preserving the 35 year old version of me-insisting that I should stay frozen there in that "ideal".
I couldn't find anything geared towards the emotional and spiritual challenges I was facing –let alone anywhere that was CELEBRATING it. So I decided to create it myself from scratch.
I'm on pause for the summer, but will be releasing new episodes in September 2025. In the meantime, check out my 77 available episodes on everything from sex after menopause, finding yourself again after loss and leaning into your intuition.
Midlife is a Portal, and I'm here to witness and support you as you dance, leap (or even) limp through it. It's okay. I got you.

Your Magical Midlife
E43: OMG WTF is Happening To My Face ??? Confronting The Stranger In The Mirror
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
When you get to "a certain age" you may be startled when you see yourself in the mirror. One of the things there is so little discussion around is the overall strangeness of aging-and how sometimes your sense of self gets pulled out from under you. More often than not, when I see myself these days, I have a little startle. Is that me ? Me with the crowfeet ? The furrowed brow ? The under eye bags ? The spare tire ? That old lady couldn't possible be ME ? When did this happen ? It takes a lot of work and a mindset shift to accept our bodies as they inevitably change-no amount of diet/exercise/good habits/injectables or plastic surgery can stop the mark of time. So it's time to accept. And maybe have a little fun.
