Kate Muir: The Midlife Crash That Became Her Comeback

Kate Muir: The Midlife Crash That Became Her Comeback

On this week’s episode, we’re joined by author and menopause campaigner Kate Muir , who takes us through the glorious chaos of her fifties—from divorce and career detonation to therapy, HRT, and finally, healing on a Hebridean beach.


Kate lays bare the mess and magic of a “magnificent midlife crisis,” revealing how hormonal havoc triggered a total life reboot—and why she believes therapy is more necessity than indulgence. From tear-stained shopping lists to surprise late-life love, her story is raw, witty, and defiantly hopeful.

Whether you're battling brain fog or just wondering what's next, this is a must-listen for anyone trying to make sense of their second act.


Kate's new book, How to Have a Magnificent Midlife Crisis: Rethink, Reboot, Revive and Thrive , is out now.
