This week on When Mommy Grows Up, we’re joined by Sara Fay Egan—author of The Through Line, hospitality guru, and the queen of keeping it real. From luxury weddings to life’s unexpected curveballs, Sara Fay has built a career (and a life) full of twists, turns, and beautifully imperfect moments.
In this upbeat and inspiring conversation, Becca and Marie chat with Sara Fay about what it means to grow a business, a family, and yourself, even when nothing goes according to plan. Sara Fay shares behind-the-scenes stories from her 20+ years in the event world, the powerful lessons she learned while navigating her daughter’s life-threatening illness, and why waiting for the “perfect” moment is overrated.
You’ll walk away with laughter, a few tear-worthy moments, and one simple takeaway: happiness isn’t found in the flawless - it’s found in the full, messy, meaningful middle of it all.
