Forget everything you’ve been told about the “midlife crisis.” In this episode of Drinks with the Girls, Karen and Lisa are calling BS on outdated, gendered labels and reclaiming midlife as a time of powerful transformation. From societal expectations to personal reinvention, we unpack why this chapter isn't a breakdown — it’s a breakthrough.
Tune in for real talk on:
Why the term midlife crisis is harmful and outdated
How women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond are rediscovering themselves
The impact of good girl conditioning, boundaries, and menopause
Reframing midlife as a renaissance — or your “second spring”
Celebrity reinventions and role models who are thriving in midlife
With cocktails, candid stories, and a whole lot of heart, we’re redefining what it means to age with confidence, clarity, and zero apologies.
