  • Episode #014 How to Wear what you Love, and Love what you Wear as a Midlife Woman with Guest Alex Standley
    Feb 13 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Style in Midlife is a potential minefield. As Midlife women we can feel under so much pressure to keep up with trends, while at the same time avoiding the whole “mutton dressed as lamb” dilemma and our Inner Critic uttering an eye-rolling “You can’t wear that!”

    But we still want to feel stylish, confident, glamorous – sexy even. For ourselves. In way that feels right to us – because Midlife style is not about pleasing anyone else.

    So join Kate Porter and her guest Midlife style expert and sustainability ambassador Alex Standley as they smash style stereotypes about “age-appropriate” dressing and bust myths like over 50s can’t wear sequins talking about How to wear what you love, and love what you wear as a Midlife woman so that you feel fabulous inside and out.

    From their style icons and the impact of the rise over-50s influencers, to disrupting the Midlife style narrative of playing it safe with our style choices once we hit 50, tune in for insights and inspiration for how to avoid fading into the background by discovering your signature style and letting it speak for you.

    The leopard-print loving pair also talk about their passion for preloved, and Alex shares her top tips for sourcing sustainable items to enhance your style and curate your wardrobe.

  • Episode #013 How to Stretch the Elastic as a Midlife Mum of Teens with Guest Jo Brianti
    Feb 6 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    As Midlife mums, navigating the teenage years can be a potential minefield of change and all the emotions that this encompasses. We can feel like we’re losing control as our whole routine as we know undergoes upheaval.

    It’s a real struggle not to lose sight of who you are both as a Mum and as you - the woman - at this pivotal time in our lives.

    And all the while there’s that looming countdown to the whole Empty Nesting journey… and listen out for a forthcoming episode focusing on that.

    So Kate is delighted to be joined by Jo Brianti for Episode #013 to take an open and honest look at how to stretch the elastic with our teens. As a Mum of twin teenage boys, Jo shares her experiences and insights of beginning to let go – and at the same time discovering the joys of being able to take back our time as our offspring explore their growing independence.

    From heartwarming tales of first parent-free school trips, to practical tips and advice for nurturing their independence, Jo shares with Kate her three lessons learned during these transformative years with her double trouble.

    And, as Mum to a now 23-year-old, Kate reminisces with Jo about the importance of embracing rather than resisting change and exploring empowering choices at this evolving time in both our kids’ and our lives.

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Midlife brings with it many challenging changes that can leave us feeling overwhelmed… but we just get on with it, thinking no one will be interested. And moving out of the family home is right up there, whatever the reason – divorce, downsizing, relocation and bereavement can all play a part. Or simply our desire for a change of scene at this pivotal time in our life.

    Midlife Unlimited is all about having those conversations about subjects we don’t talk about enough and being open and honest sharing how they make us feel. So your host Kate Porter is delighted to be joined by Alex Hughes for this episode to talk about How to Reinvent Home as a Midlife woman, or how to move on when moving out of the family home.

    From practical tips and advice on empty nesting and downsizing, to heartwarming memories, Alex shares her experience of leaving the family home after more than two decades, the impact this has had on her, her husband and their two daughters and the lessons she has learned along the way.

    Kate and Alex discuss how to overcome fear of change and the dreaded “what ifs” and "if onlys", as well as coming to terms with the passing of time free from regret and embracing new beginnings on our terms.

  • Episode #010 How to Refire Your Midlife with Guest Wendy Garcarz
    Jan 16 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Is the “What Now?” conundrum casting a shadow over your Midlife? Like so many of the fabulous women Kate coaches, do you feel you've lost direction? Worrying about what comes next.

    We can feel we're in a career slump as our 50s gather pace, dreaming of going it alone but held back by fear of failure and success in near equal measure, underpinned by self-doubt, comparisonitis, lack of self-worth and fear of judgement. While retirement looms on the horizon.

    So is hitting Midlife the end of life as we know it? Are our hopes and dreams slipping away as the clock keeps ticking? Well, Kate is 55 and is just getting started. And she's delighted to be joined by her guest Wendy Garcarz, multi-award winning business strategist, Ted X speaker, futurist, author and founder of Refirement UK.

    Wendy has more than 30 years’ experience working with women business owners in all sectors, helping them create a business strategy that achieves growth and success. And, like Kate, Wendy is a passionate ambassador for giving women 55+ the vital clarity and focus we need moving forward at this pivotal time in our lives.

    Wendy’s Refirement UK movement is redefining what retirement looks like today and giving women a vital choice in how we age and contribute as we approach our later years. There’s a longevity revolution happening right now, and this is our time to stand up and be taken seriously. To embrace our wisdom and shine in our brilliance.

    Kate and Wendy share inspiring stories and insights to empower us all to be – as Wendy puts it – “Rocking Midlife, but not from a chair.” Wendy reveals more details about Refirement UK and how you can get involved, and shares her three top strategies for refiring our Midlife.

    If you’re suffering from a case of the January blues then join host Kate Porter and her fabulous guest Steph Walsh for insights, anecdotes and advice on how to reignite your Midlife mojo and unslump yourself this January and beyond.

    Kate and Steph are all too aware of how the pressure to take action to “thrive in 2025” and the whole “New Year, New Me” movement can just exacerbate our feelings of being unfulfilled, insignificant.. of stagnating in the Midlife swamp.

    So, inspired by Steph’s passion project animation of Dr Seuss’ Oh The Places You’ll Go, the pair have come up with the 3 C’s to unslump yourself which they talk you through in this episode, while also delving into topics including navigating shifting friendships in Midlife, ageism in the workplace, how to embrace cheerleading and unleash the positive power of networking and how to stop waiting and start climbing your mountain.

    So join their conversation to find out more as Kate and Steph shake things up, smashing stereotypes and telling Midlife how it really is.
