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.
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.

E63: Kate Valentine A Woman of A Certain Rage
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Kate Valentine (playwright/producer/choreographer/actor) is one of the instigators of the feminist neo-burlesque movement. Her show, the vaudeville extravaganza The Va Va Voom Room and her hilariously deadpan mistress of ceremonies character Miss Astrid rode a zeitgeist beginning in the mid 1990’s in Los Angeles. The popularity of The Va Va Voom Room hit its apex as a weekly variety show featuring hundreds of noted striptease dancers, musicians, and variety artists running at the beloved cabaret space Fez Under Time Café in NYC.
Now, as most of us Gen X-ers, Kate has entered midlife and is refusing to be quiet about it. Her new show A Woman Of A Certain Rage, is both entertainment and commentary about aging in a female body in an age of anxiety. It's funny. It's incendiary and you should definitely check it out.
Kate is smart, witty, delightful and inspiring. I'm thrilled to share this interview.
