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
E68: Maiden Mother Empress Crone
The Maiden, Mother, and Crone archetypes traditionally represent the cyclical nature of life, encompassing youth, motherhood, and old age/death, respectively.
As I have been aging, reflecting and mining my own life, I have come to a conclusion that there is actually a fourth phase, nestled between the Mother and The Crone that I prefer to call The Empress. She is us, women in midlife.
The Maiden: is our youth, innocence, inexperience, untapped potential, our playfulness, sense of adventure, desire for new beginnings, and the potential for growth.
The Mother: is where we nurture, our fertility, our sense of abundance, and the fullness of life, if you don't have children it's our creative ventures and the building block time of life
The Empress: invites us to pause, discern, take stock, take back our power, process, and reinvent
The Crone: is where we step into our wisdom, pass on our experience, face endings, and seed the renewal of the Maiden
At each phase, we carry the other three as we are always cycling through-no matter what age you actually are today. Each stage has wounds to heal and gifts to give us.
I'll be launching a coaching program around this concept later in 2025. Stay tuned and in the meantime, let me know your thoughts on your season of life
