Ashley Kelsch is a coach, writer, and the bold voice behind the Unf*cking Midlife podcast, column, and coaching platform. With a radically honest, humorous, and raw take on modern womanhood, Ashley opens up about everything from dating and divorce to parenting and sobriety, helping women redefine what midlife can actually look and feel like.

In this empowering and unfiltered conversation, Ashley and I talk about the power of telling the truth, the discomfort of personal growth, the realities of dating after 40, and how we can stop gaslighting ourselves out of our own emotions. Her story is a testament to second chances, realness, and the deep freedom that comes from choosing yourself.

We also get into:

• How Ashley started Unf*cking Midlife and what it means
• Why telling the truth is a revolutionary act
• Navigating discomfort in growth and sobriety
• Owning our emotions instead of bypassing them
• The realities of dating in midlife and what’s changed
• Letting go of shame and rewriting our stories
