Ep 34: Three Best Friends, One Mic & Zero Filter
One year after sharing their stories on Midlife Mix, my best friends Krista and Litsa are back—and nothing is off-limits.
We catch up on everything that's changed over the past year, from raising adult kids, making (and losing) friendships in midlife, dating after divorce, and what we really want in a partner now.
It's honest, hilarious, emotional, and exactly what happens when three lifelong friends sit down with microphones and no script.
In this episode, we talk about:
Why making new friends in midlife feels so hard
Dating apps, ghosting, and finding love later in life
Watching our kids become adults
Seeing our parents in a whole new light
The surprising things we now find attractive in a partner
Our biggest personality flaws (according to each other!)
Listener questions, hot takes, and plenty of laughs
Pour yourself a drink, pull up a chair, and join the conversation. It feels just like being part of the group chat.

Ep 33: Mortgage Before Marriage? Why More Women Are Choosing Financial Freedom First
Should you buy a home before you get married?
It's a question that's challenging everything we've been taught about love, money, and relationships.
In this episode of Midlife Mix, Rachel sits down with Alex E. Edwards, author of Mortgage Before Marriage, to discuss why more women are choosing financial independence before saying "I do."
Together they explore:
Why single women are leading the way in home ownership
The financial risks of marriage and second marriages
How financial abuse can leave people feeling trapped
Why prenups should be viewed as protection—not a prediction of divorce
The difference between wanting your partner and needing them financially
How to protect your assets, your children, and your future
Whether you're dating, divorced, remarried, or simply rethinking your financial future, this conversation will leave you asking one important question:
Is love enough… or should financial security come first?
