The FxCK YOU 50s

The FxCK YOU 50s is an unfiltered, unapologetic, and fiercely honest podcast hosted by Andrea Claire, a veteran of the fashion and beauty industry with over 30 years of experience. Designed specifically for women who are "done with aging gracefully," the show dismantles the commercialized myths of midlife and challenges the brands that try to sell "solutions" to invented "problems."

Andrea moves the conversation far beyond your mother’s "aging with grace" tea party. Instead, she creates a space for gritty, real-talk discussions about the realities of being 50+, covering everything from medical gaslighting and career pivots to reclaiming sexual intimacy and navigating the patriarchy.

Andrea and her guests aren't just surviving midlife they are rebuilding it in their own image. This show is about total personal sovereignty. If you’re looking for a polite conversation about knitting, keep scrolling. If you’re ready to own your power, pull up a chair, you’re home.
