🔥 Midlife isn’t a breakdown. It’s the fire of becoming.

In this deeply personal kickoff to her 4-part series, Kate Garland, Somatic Coach & Stress Recovery Specialist, shares the forgotten metaphor that redefined her midlife—and could reframe yours.

If you’re moving through grief, identity shifts, perimenopause, or just a sense that life no longer fits… this episode will meet you in the fire—and help you remember who you really are.

• Why the symptoms of midlife aren’t a malfunction—they’re a message
• The sacred metaphor of ceramics—and what the second firing really means
• How reinvention begins in the body, not the brain
• The surprising truth about menopause, stress, and spiritual initiation
• 
  

✨ This is the fire that burns off what no longer belongs—so your true form can emerge.

We’ll walk the arc of a woman’s life—from wet clay to bone dry—and explore how each phase prepares us for the second fire. It’s mythic. It’s messy. It’s medicine.
