Finding Ourselves in Midlife with Kaz Amos

In this episode of Midlife Bites, host Kirstin Bouse welcomes fellow psychologist Kaz Amos for an open and heartfelt conversation about the messy, beautiful middle of life.

Kaz shares her winding path from personal training and counselling to finally becoming a registered psychologist—while juggling family, business, and the realities of midlife. Together, Kirstin and Kaz explore what it really means to navigate this season: the physical and emotional upheaval of perimenopause, shifting identities, changing relationships, and those moments when we feel a little invisible.

They also talk about the power of therapy—not just for individuals, but for couples learning to reconnect in new ways—and the importance of having safe spaces and honest conversations. From Kaz’s women’s group (“The Love Club”) to the solidarity of Generation X women demanding better research and cultural awareness around menopause, this episode reminds us that we’re not alone in these transitions.

The conversation even touches on the overlap of perimenopause and adult ADHD, highlighting how complex and layered midlife can be.

It’s real, relatable, and deeply validating—an invitation to keep talking, sharing, and supporting one another through this transformative stage of life.

Listen in if you’ve ever wondered:

• “Is it just me feeling this way?”

• “What’s happening to my body and mind?”

• “How do I find myself again in midlife?”
