This space was created for every woman who has ever felt stuck between what was and what’s next after a divorce later in life. The middle isn’t the end — it’s the turning point.
Feeling lost… overwhelmed… emotionally exhausted?
I understand, my friend. I’ve walked through the heartbreak of divorce too — and created this space to help women heal, rebuild and know they are not alone.
Here you’ll find encouragement, honest conversations, free resources and a podcast created for women learning how to live again after everything changed.

Take a minute to get to know me and why I created this podcast just for you.
This site is a growing community of women looking for shelter, safety, a place to be broken, a place to heal and to feel supported in the process.
This community was started by me, Caroline Autry, a woman once broken by divorce, shattered by broken dreams and at a loss of how to put the pieces back together. While it took me years to recover on my own, struggling to find resources and answers on my own without financial ability to purchase the help I needed.
My passion is to ensure you get the guidance to get you started on your way to a beautiful life awaiting you! Believe me, I know it’s hard to see now, but you can build a very happy and fulfilling life. If I did it, so can you! I want to help you on this journey, my friend. You are not alone.

● About Me
Hi, I’m Carol — and Living in the Middle is my love letter to the freedom, joy, and second chances that come when the nest gets quiet and the noise of who we were starts to fade.
At 42, I found myself standing in the middle of a life I didn’t recognize. After 16 years of marriage, I walked away from the only version of “forever” I’d ever known. I was the first in my family to get divorced — no guide, no support group, and no roadmap to healing.
I didn’t just feel broken. I felt invisible. Numb. Lost. I couldn’t eat. I couldn’t rest. I was surviving — not living. I didn’t know where to begin.
But eventually, one small step at a time… I did begin.
I slowly started putting the pieces of myself back together — and somewhere along the way, I started liking the woman I was becoming. I began chasing a life that felt like mine again.
Now, more than a decade later, I’ve built a life I love — and I’m still growing. Still dreaming. Still healing. Still learning to thrive in this beautiful “middle” season of life.
This space is for every woman who’s ever asked, “Now what?”
If you’re navigating a new chapter — after divorce, after raising children, after heartbreak, after loss — you’re not alone. You are not starting over. You’re just starting next.
Let’s do it together.
Welcome to the middle. 💛
