Cally Beaton talks to Kiri Pritchard-McLean

Comedian Cally Beaton champions her modern manifesto for keeping cool when you’re a hot mess. Challenging the age-old narrative that women become invisible when they cease to be fertile, defying the bullsh*t expectation that midlife women at best maintain (looks, career, relationships), and at worst decline.

Taking an irreverent look at her own story of radical midlife reinvention – from meetings in the boardroom to becoming a stand-up comedian – Beaton shares stories and experiences from her career. Talking to award-winning Welsh comedian Kiri Pritchard-McLean, she gives a fresh, funny and life-affirming look at what it means to be a middle-aged woman who is willing to take a chance, put herself out there, and who is also willing to fail.
