Unfinished & Unapologetic is a raw, honest, and sometimes twisted podcast about rebuilding yourself when life doesn’t go to plan. Hosted by Paige, this show explores heartbreak, divorce, toxic relationships, mental health, chronic pain, identity, healing, boundaries, and what it really means to start over in your 40s and 50s.
No filter. No shame. A little messy. Still not done.
Text Paige about this episode Apparently, somewhere around 50, women are supposed to wake up, run out of f*cks and stop caring what anybody thinks. Yeah… that hasn’t exactly been my experience. I still care. I still overthink. I still replay conversations in my head and occasionally wonder whether I’ve made a complete d*ckhead of myself. What’s changed is that other people’s opinions don’t automatically get the final vote anymore. In this episode, I’m talking about why confidence hits differe...

I Wanted to Be Wanted More Than I Wanted Sex
Text Paige about this episode I thought this episode was going to be about sex. Turns out, it was about something far more uncomfortable. The difference between being needed and being wanted. The way a dead bedroom can slowly make you feel invisible. And how bloody easy it is to confuse attention, chemistry and desire with something deeper when you’ve spent years wondering whether anybody will ever look at you that way again. I talk about divorce, living alone for the first time at 47, body i...

You Weren’t Lost. You Were Buried.
Text Paige about this episode The weirdest part of starting over isn’t the paperwork, the empty house, or even the massive life change. It’s the moment you realise you don’t actually know who you are without the old roles holding everything together. After last week’s trip through Victim Town, I’ve been thinking about what comes next… when you’ve decided you’re done living in the old story, but still have to work out who the hell you are without the marriage, the crisis, or being needed by ev...

Welcome to Victim Town — Just Don’t Pitch a Tent Here
Text Paige about this episode Most of us have visited Victim Town. Some of us practically had a timeshare there. Pain is real. Grief is real. Sometimes life genuinely kicks the absolute shit out of you. But there comes a point when what happened to you stops being something you’re experiencing… and starts becoming who you are. In this episode, I talk about the difference between feeling your pain and building your identity around it, why fake positivity is bullshit, and the uncomfortable trut...

Women Who Shrink Themselves to Keep the Peace
Text Paige about this episode If you’ve ever called yourself “easy-going” while quietly dying inside, this episode is your wake-up call. I’m talking about the slow, sneaky way so many women learn to shrink themselves to keep the peace — the tiny daily self-abandonments that look harmless until one day you realise you don’t know what you feel, what you want, or who you are without everyone else’s approval. We get into why people-pleasing isn’t just being nice. A lot of the time, it’s fear wear...

Strong Women Get Tired Too
Text Paige about this episode Strong women get tired too. In this episode, I’m talking about the exhaustion that comes from always being the strong one — the reliable one, the fixer, the one who copes, carries, remembers, organises, supports, shows up, and somehow still feels guilty for being tired. Because being needed is not the same as being valued. And being capable does not mean you should have to carry everything. I unpack the hidden mental load so many women live with, especially...

Starting Over When You Thought Your Life Would Look Different By Now
Text Paige about this episode You can survive heartbreak, divorce, burnout, toxic relationships, and still find yourself looking around in midlife wondering: How the hell did I end up here? In this episode, I'm talking about the grief nobody really talks about—the grief of the life you thought you'd have by now. The marriage you thought would last. The version of yourself you lost trying to keep everyone else happy. The life you thought you'd be living now. I share my own story of starting ov...

The Version of Me People Were Comfortable With
Text Paige about this episode For years, I thought being easygoing was one of my best qualities. I was the one who didn't make a fuss. The one who kept the peace. The one who adapted, accommodated, and carried more than I should have. What I didn't realise was how much of myself I was losing in the process. In this first episode of Unfinished & Unapologetic, I'm talking about people-pleasing, self-abandonment, identity loss, and the uncomfortable realisation that sometimes the version of ...

High-Functioning Survival Mode
Text Paige about this episode For a long time, I thought being exhausted was normal. I thought constantly thinking, constantly doing, constantly carrying everyone and everything was just part of being an adult. I didn't realise I was living in survival mode because I'd been there for so long. In this episode of Unfinished & Unapologetic, I'm talking about high-functioning survival mode: the kind where you still show up, still get the work done, still look like you've got it all together, ...

Podcast Trailer | Unfinished & Unapologetic
Text Paige about this episode Nothing rattles you like realising the life you’re living isn’t the one you imagined. When you’ve been married, divorced, raised kids into adulthood, and then watched one of them come back home because life got heavy, it can feel like you’re carrying everyone’s story while losing your own. This podcast names that moment out loud, without shame and without pretending it’s fine. Unfinished & Unapologetic is a podcast for women in their 40s and 50s who are heal...
