There’s a point in midlife where you start asking yourself different questions. Not “What’s next?”… but “What do I actually want now?”

In this episode, we talk about the things we still desire — some simple, some unexpected, some that have been quietly sitting in the background for years. From wanting more rest to dreaming bigger (yes, even writing a book or doing something completely random like getting slimed in Florida), it’s about giving those thoughts space again. We also look back at the things we miss from earlier years and the things we think we could have done then.

And then come the dilemmas. The real-life decisions that don’t have clear answers. Work or retire? How involved do you get as a mother-in-law? Do you move your life to be closer to your kids?

It’s honest, it’s a bit all over the place (in the best way), and it’s exactly what midlife sounds like when you say things out loud.

What’s inside:

Life updates and catching up (incl. a hacked bank account and a close call with fire)
The things we still desire in midlife
Simple wants vs bigger dreams
Looking back: what we miss from younger years
Real-life dilemmas with no clear answers
Work vs retirement
The kind of mothers-in-law we will be
Moving closer to your children — yes or no?
The idea of doing something fun together… Vegas? 🎰

Tune in for the raw midlife conversations, the laughs and the stories that could have been a mini-series of their own.
