A podcast about a woman's relationship with her own aliveness.

Most midlife women aren't trying to escape their lives because something is wrong. They're trying to escape because somewhere along the way they lost contact with what made their lives feel worth inhabiting. The desire. The pleasure. The sense of being fully present in their own existence.

This is not a wellness podcast. Not a therapy podcast. Not a sobriety podcast.

Each episode explores what happens when women lose contact with their own life force and what becomes possible when they find it again. We touch on sexuality, identity, midlife, and yes, alcohol. But none of those are the thesis.

The thesis is this: women used to feel more alive than they do now. And they want that back.

For the midlife woman who suspects what she's been reaching for was never actually out there.
