Goodbye 2025: Trends, Chaos & Midlife Reflections

This week on The Midlifers Podcast, we’re wrapping up 2025 with our final episode of the year - looking back at the moments, trends and pop culture chaos that defined the year, and sharing what we’re hoping for in 2026.

We chat about:

✨ The words of the year (hello 6–7 and parasocial)

🤖 The rise of ChatGPT and AI in everyday life

💉 Celebrity plastic surgery, facelifts and ageing in midlife

👜 Labubus, viral moments, space travel and so much more…

We also share some exciting updates from The Midlifers - including merch coming soon, plans for our first-ever live show, studio upgrades, more guests, and how we’re pushing ourselves out of our comfort zones in midlife. We’ve also set a challenge for you!!

It’s funny, reflective, nostalgic and honest - the perfect end-of-year listen for midlife women and mums who love pop culture, laughter and real conversation.

Thank you for being part of our Midlifers community in 2025 💛

We’ll see you in January with our Summer Special episodes, and then back properly in 2026.
