Ever wonder if everyone else is just winging it through midlife too? You’re not alone! In this episode, we dive into the hilarious, awkward, and all-too-relatable realities of midlife—where embarrassing moments, shame spirals, and having “too much” of everything are just part of the ride. From parenting fails and perimenopause to public pools, body hair debates, and why it’s okay to laugh at yourself, this episode is for anyone who’s ever felt a little imperfect.

In this episode:

Embarrassing shoe moments, scratchy soles, and footwear fails

What it really means to “win” at life (and why satisfaction comes in many forms!)

The hardest feelings to deal with: shame, embarrassment, and the dreaded “walk of shame”

Parenting, lullabies, and the healing power of Celine Dion

The great debate: Should men shave their armpits or keep it au naturel?

Public pools, childhood memories, and bleach as a parenting hack

How much is too much? Clutter, greed, emotional overload, and knowing when to walk away

Out of left field: and embracing imperfection

Who is this for? Midlife women and men, parents, anyone navigating perimenopause, and everyone who loves honest, funny, and unfiltered conversations about real life, relationships, and not being perfect.
