Queens and Crones
Queens and Crones is a podcast for women navigating the magic and mayhem of midlife, and beyond. Hosted by Cairelle Perilloux—an integrative RN and midlife maven who's deep in the trenches herself—this show blends humor, heartfelt conversations, and a fusion of science and magic as it explores everything from relationships and self-care to finding your purpose and reclaiming your sovereignty.
Each episode centers on women's midlife experiences and the effects on body, mind, and spirit. No topic is off-limits! Also featured are inspiring interviews with extraordinary women—authors, artists, healers, entrepreneurs, visionaries, and more—who are doing amazing, transformative things and proving that midlife is not a crisis, it's a coronation.
If you're ready to step mindfully into your power, embrace your inner queen, and honor the wisdom of your crone (or if you're already there), grab your crown and join Cairelle and her guests as they share their thoughts on how to live in midlife and beyond with purpose, passion, and a whole lot of magic!
