In this powerful episode of Visible, host Sarah Hewitt sits down with writer, content creator, and unapologetically honest voice of midlife, Cat Sims. Known for her candid takes on motherhood, mental health, and sobriety, Cat opens up about:
– Growing up with undiagnosed ADHD and finding her creative voice
– The messy transition into motherhood and how Instagram gave her back her writing
– Sobriety: her four-year journey, the myths she’s shattered, and the surprising freedoms it’s brought
– The often-ignored reality of the mental load in relationships and how couples can learn to communicate better
– Midlife visibility, body image, and navigating new medications like ADHD treatment, HRT, and Manjaro
– Why turning 40 can be liberating — and the underrated joy of having no more f***s to give
Cat is funny, frank and the epitome of a woman who is keeping it real.
She reminds us that none of us have this figured out — and that the very act of telling the truth can be the thing that sets someone else free.
✨ My favourite line from the conversation: “I don’t have any f*cks left to give.”
If you’ve ever felt the quiet rage of the mental load, wrestled with wine o’clock, or wondered if you’ll ever feel at home in your own body — this episode is for you.
