Carrie On! with Carrie Murray - Season 1 Trailer

Trailer
Carrie On! This isn’t just a show. It’s a rally cry. It’s where we unpack the beautiful, brutal, bold moments of midlife and beyond. The second (or third) act. The rebirths, resets, and the radical audacity it takes to start over, especially when the world says you should’ve had it all figured out by now. Because as we grow older (and wiser, with any luck), we don’t stop evolving. We keep shifting careers, renegotiating relationships, rediscovering our passions, healing past wounds, and building something new from the ashes. Carrie On! was born from that place. And I’m inviting you to come along. Each episode features raw, real conversations with fearless entrepreneurs, truth-tellers, and changemakers who are rewriting the rules and their own stories. No matter what generation you belong to, if you’ve ever felt like you had to carry it all alone, this show is for you.
