About

In this magical, mind-opening episode of The Midlife Makeover Show, Wendy sits down with modern astrologer and podcast host Tara Redfield to explore how astrology can be a powerful tool for navigating midlife reinvention.

 

Tara breaks down what a natal chart really is, why those midlife “crisis” years are actually written in the stars, and how planetary transits and moon cycles can help you make more aligned decisions.

 

She even does a live sample reading of Wendy’s chart—hello, storyteller destiny and RV road-trip prophecy! — showing how our cosmic blueprint can validate who we are and where we’re going next.

 

💫 What You’ll Learn

  • What your natal chart actually is and how it reveals your soul’s journey, gifts, and challenges
  • The three major midlife transits (Pluto, Neptune, Uranus) and why your 40s can feel like a cosmic shake-up—not a failure
  • How to use planetary transits to plan big moves like career changes, travel, creative projects, or relationships
  • A simple new moon and full moon practice to set intentions, release what’s no longer serving you, and work with the natural rhythm of the sky
  • How a personalized reading (like Wendy’s live on the show!) can bring clarity, confidence, and validation to your next chapter of reinvention
