  • Episode #048 How to Use Tarot as a Tool to Support Midlife Change with Guest Nikki Leader
    Oct 2 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Midlife is a fabulous time to try something new. And this often means whisking things off that back burner and taking perfectly imperfect action.

    For your host Kate Porter, one such thing is Tarot. She was intrigued from when she first saw Jane Seymour as Solitaire in James Bond’s Live and Let Die.

    And she couldn’t resist buying an original pack of the Tarot of the Witches, which Jane uses in the film, when she spotted them on an auction site. Kate even signed up to a Teach Yourself Tarot course. But that’s as far as she’s got.

    Until now. Because Kate’s taking that action and calling in the expert.

    So, if you’re Tarot curious too, join Kate Porter The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach® and her guest Tarot Reader, Psychic Medium and Spiritual Teacher Nikki Leader for Episode 048 as they talk about How to Use Tarot as a Tool to Support Midlife Change.

    Midlife Unlimited® is all about busting myths. And Nikki and Kate do just that – from the importance of clarifying that Nikki is not a fortune teller, to what Tarot actually is and the history of the card deck.

    Nikki shares with Kate her midlife metamorphosis journey, explaining that discovering Tarot was “not in my gameplan”, and how tragedy led her to choose to follow this path like “the pieces of a jigsaw coming together”.

    And Nikki explains how listeners can start exploring Tarot in Midlife as a means of self-awareness and personal growth.

  • Episode #047 How to Surprise Yourself as a Midlife Woman with Guest Helen Davis
    Sep 25 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    How often do you talk yourself out of doing something? You’re too old. Too unfit? You’ve got too little time… It’s the same old, same old excuses. You’re on that overly familiar and rather tiring hamster wheel or recycling your behaviour – because you’ve always done it that way.

    And if it ain’t broke and all that. And what would everyone think if you stopped conforming?

    Reality check time! You’re at risk of boring yourself by being predictable.

    So if you’re tired of thinking “Is this it…?”, then this episode is just for you.

    Take some vital Me Time and join your host Kate Porter The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach® and her guest Founder of One Step Forward Helen Davis for Episode 047 as they talk about How to Surprise Yourself as a Midlife Woman.

    Helen and Kate are advocates of Midlife being a great time to stop making excuses to yourself and shake things up a bit. And the pair discuss in this episode how now is a good chance to set ourselves some small steps to create a big impact in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

    They also ponder the popular excuse when it comes to leaping out of our comfort zone and trying new things… not having anyone to do this thing with! And Helen and Kate give insights for how to fall in love with our own company.

    Helen shares her metamorphosis story from blockbusters via burnout, to bones, and explains how she now values progress over perfection when setting herself challenges and celebrating her results. And she reveals her top lessons learned for surprising ourselves in Midlife and beyond.

  • Episode #046 How to Speak Up and Speak Out as a Midlife Woman with Guest Hannah Holt
    Sep 18 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    As the host of Midlife Unlimited®, Kate Porter has found her voice in Midlife. After years of people pleasing… worrying about what others were thinking… diluting herself.

    Unleashing this confidence and freedom to stop hiding, to stop closing yourself off, to take back your power and discover what lights you up is truly liberating.

    And Kate, The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach®, is not alone in ditching the guilt and celebrating knowing ourselves better than anyone else. She is not alone in wanting more!

    So she is delighted to be joined by her guest Love Coach and founder of High on Love Hannah Holt for Episode 046 as they talk about How to Speak Up and Speak Out as a Midlife Woman.

    An alternative title to this episode could be “How to Say F*ck It!”. Because like Kate, Hannah is an ambassador for Midlife women to give themselves permission to start doing things their way.

    In this episode, the pair debate how it’s not that Gen X women don’t care – it’s just that we are now realising this is our time to care about ourselves first and foremost.

    And, with this, comes the discovery that we deserve more!

    No more feeling guilty. It’s time to take back our power and ask what are we saying “Yes” to?

    Hannah shares her metamorphosis story from spending years settling to her “F*ck this” realisation that when we stop proving and start trusting we unleash the confidence to speak up and say how we feel… we stop shrinking ourselves.

    And Hannah reveals her top lessons learned for letting go of not enough, and nurturing self-love in Midlife and beyond.

  • Episode #045 How to Come Out the Other Side Stronger with Guest Nikki Talbot
    Sep 11 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Midlife is a time of change which can leave us feeling vulnerable. Like we’re losing control. Losing our power. Sh*t just keeps happening…

    This vulnerability can also unleash feelings that we thought we had dealt with… but now realise we have merely packed them away. We’ve tried to block them. Tried to forget. But deep down that vulnerability is making us feel raw.

    If you’ve had enough of putting on a brave face, join your host Kate Porter The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach® and her guest Nikki Talbot Founder of Pudding and Pie for Episode 045 as they talk about How to Come Out the Other Side Stronger.

    Nikki and Kate explore how being vulnerable is not a weakness. And Kate is honoured that Nikki speaks openly and with great honesty about how being a mum to premature babies and losing her twin son Tom at just weeks old have enabled her to reframe and find that tiny chink of hope so that she can now talk from the scar and not the wound.

    An inspiring case of deal and heal in action, Nikki shares her midlife metamorphosis story to show women that it is possible to dig deep and use awful experiences to build our resilience.

    And Nikki talks through her lessons learned for how to come out the other side stronger and, like her, live with gratitude and hope.

  • Episode #044 How to Beat Busyness Syndrome with Guest Wendy Molyneux
    Sep 4 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Do you pride yourself on being a busy bee? Or do you often feel like you are busy doing nothing? Filling your time with seemingly endless tasks that are distracting you from stopping to ask yourself what you really want and need to be doing – right now? How you want to be spending your precious time?

    It’s time for a personal stocktake. To take back our power, so that we can do more. Be more.

    If your To Do List – or as your host Kate Porter calls it Ta Dah List – is ever-growing, then this episode is just for you.

    Put the kettle on, take some vital Me Time and join Kate Porter The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach® and her guest Wendy Molyneux Homeopath and Heartfulness Coach for Episode 044 as they talk about How to Beat Busyness Syndrome.

    With September here, their episode is rather timely as the whole back-to-school vibe kicks in.

    So, much like Midlife itself, the pair debate how the changing season and start of Q4 is a great time for assessing and reassessing just how we are spending our time. And for taking time to ask ourselves why we are filling our minutes, hours and days in the current manner?

    Wendy and Kate delve deep into the potential pitfalls of Busy Life Syndrome. And they discuss – sharing insights and anecdotes from their own midlife metamorphosis – how being busy doesn’t always translate into meaningful productivity or wellbeing.

    And don’t miss Wendy’s top tips for beating Busyness Syndrome and the vital role that nurturing our emotional fitness plays in this so that we can start filling our time with what really fills us up.

  • Episode #042 How to Embody Your Sage as a Midlife Woman with Guest Sarah Tompsett
    Aug 21 2025

    Join the Midlife Unlimited® conversation by sending Kate a text

    Labels. Host Kate Porter and her guests talk about them a lot on Midlife Unlimited®… and not fabulous designer ones. Kate means the labels that are thrust upon us. And, especially in Midlife, these labels can be as uncomfortable as an ill-fitting pair of jeans. They just don’t feel right. They don’t align with who we really are.

    Midlife is our time to stop conforming, and say “Hell no!” to trying to fit it. It’s time for us to break the mould.

    Now one mould that springs to mind is the labels that make up the Triple Goddess stages of being a woman – Maiden, Mother and Crone. Our rites of passage.

    And, as our phase of the female life circle shifts from Mother to Crone, Kate has been struck by two things. Firstly, is she ready to be a Crone? And, secondly, she’s welcoming talk of potentially a fourth stage for where she is right now… The Sage.

    If this resonates, join your host Kate The Midlife Metamorphosis Coach® and her guest Sarah Tompsett Women’s Wellness Coach and Kinesiologist and founder of Restore Wellness for Episode 042 as they talk about How to Embody your Sage as a Midlife Woman.

    From the origins of the label Crone and the ancient Moon tents, via fairytale hags and life’s seasons, Sarah and Kate debate this is our time to embrace our wisdom and let our brilliance shine.

    And they discuss how the title “Sage” seems far more fitting for this celebratory chapter of our lives - could it be the missing link between the traditional stages of Mother and Crone?

    Neither Kate nor Sarah are ready to be written off yet, and Sarah shares her top three tips for embracing our Sage identity during our midlife metamorphosis to shed the shame and ban toxicity so that we can relish this pivotal time in our lives.
