  • Midweek Catchup: Sleep, Scratch, and Stodge - The Glamorous Side of Our Sixties

    Midweek Catchup: Sleep, Scratch, and Stodge - The Glamorous Side of Our Sixties
    Nov 5 2025

    On this week’s Midweek Catchup, Kaye and Karen dive into the real highs and lows of midlife - from insomnia and itchy skin to the deep joy of mashed potatoes and dental sticks.

    Between chemo updates, Calamine lotion nostalgia, and a heated debate over wine through a straw, it’s a reminder that sometimes the most ordinary moments become the funniest parts of getting older.

    Because this is life in your sixties: a little tired, a little itchy, but still laughing through it all.

    Siobhan Daniels: From Burnout to Bliss - How Life on the Road Changed Everything
    Oct 31 2025

    On this week’s episode, we’re joined by Siobhan Daniels, the self-proclaimed retirement rebel who swapped burnout for a camper van named Dora and never looked back. At 60, Siobhan sold her home, hit the road, and rebuilt her life from the ground up. Now 66, she’s thriving — proof that freedom and fulfilment aren’t reserved for the young.

    Whether you’ve ever dreamed of walking away from it all or just want to feel a little braver in your own skin, this one’s for you. Because no one tells you how liberating it can be to start again at 60 or how much joy there is in finding your happy place on your own terms.

  • Midweek Catchup: When Sleep Won’t Play Ball

    Midweek Catchup: When Sleep Won’t Play Ball
    Oct 29 2025

    On this week’s Midweek Catchup, Kaye and Karen swap gallows humour for sleepless nights — and find themselves comparing coping mechanisms that range from midnight lentil mashing to burning old parkas. Karen’s chemo fatigue meets Kaye’s restless mind, and between them they land on something every woman over 45 will recognise: the impossible balance between slowing down and staying strong.

    Whether you’re running on fumes or trying to find your own off switch, this one’s for anyone whose brain refuses to clock off — even when your body’s begging it to.
