AGECRAFT After Dark
AGECRAFT After Dark is what happens when the 3 a.m. thoughts stop being ignored and start being followed.
Formerly Circling the Drain, this next iteration expands the conversation beyond menopause and midlife into something wider, weirder, and more alive—aging, identity, and reinvention for women, queer, and gender-expansive people who know there’s no neat box to fit into and no final version waiting on the other side.
The “ghosts” here aren’t paranormal (usually). They’re inherited patterns, past selves, and memories that still have opinions. Instead of exorcising them, we get curious.
Expect thoughtful conversations, sharp humor, and stories that are personal, cultural, and occasionally a little strange.
If you’re listening at night, that tracks.
Welcome to the circle.
