Thrive with Kira Sabin: A Positive Psychology Podcast

Kira Sabinthrivewithkira.com
Ever had that moment where you look around your life—your career, your relationships, your daily routine—and think, Wait… is this it? Is this all there is? You’re not alone. Midlife has a way of sneaking up on you with big questions, restless energy, and a deep craving for more. More joy. More love. More fulfillment. More you. That’s where this podcast comes in. Each week, I break down science-backed, brain-friendly sweary strategies into bite-sized, doable lessons that help you build a life that actually feels good—not just one that looks good on paper. No fluff, no toxic positivity—just real talk, sharp insights, and plenty of my own midlife misadventures (so you can learn from my chaos instead of living it). We’re tackling: 🔥 Bringing more joy into your everyday life (without forcing gratitude or faking it) 🔥 Navigating perimenopause (your hormones aren’t broken, they’re just messy) 🔥 Dating & relationships in midlife (without settling for human leftovers) 🔥 Building unshakable self-worth (so you stop doubting yourself) 🔥 Embracing your body (without diet culture’s outdated nonsense) 🔥 Shifting your mindset & getting unstuck (midlife isn’t a slow fade, it’s a fresh start) 🔥 Creating meaningful friendships (that don’t feel like middle school all over again) 🔥 Mindfulness & meditation for people who can’t sit still Midlife isn’t a crisis—it’s your next chapter. And you get to write it however the hell you want. Let’s make it a damn good one.
