Not Done Yet (finding bliss after retirement)
In the ponds of Cape Cod, there's a group of women over 65 living in their bliss. They call themselves the Old Ladies Against Underwater Garbage and their mission is simple: clean up the trash from their local ponds, enjoy nature, and build sisterhood. What began as Susan Baur's mission to help the turtles in her neighborhood waters has grown into a movement of retirees who refuse to sit still. Marcy Johnson came looking for community after the loss of her husband and her own battle with cancer. Sarah Spengler was searching for a renewed sense of passion after years of working multiple jobs and facing the question of what retirement would mean for her. What they found was more than a volunteer project — they found friendship, healing, purpose, and a powerful new vision for what aging can look like. This episode is about second, third, and fourth acts — both in and out of the water.

Everywhere You Go, There You Are (literally)
Lauren Sawyer is a community builder and marketing pro who values authenticity above all. She shares her incredible journey from adoption, how losing her brother deepened her faith rather than destroyed it, and how she found her tribe after years of fruitless friendships. Lauren and I have known each other for 10 years, and throughout that time she has never compromised her values - especially after breaking free from her people-pleasing days ahem like calling out a CEO during a job interview.. This is a raw and honest conversation about faith, family, loss, knowing your worth and finding your people in the chaos of life.

Lessons From Gen Z (aesthetically and with boundaries)
I sat down with some Gen Z experts—my younger siblings! I had to know: what are Gen Z youngins really going through? What do older generations just not get about them? What do they have harder than other generations? Do they feel ready for a rapidly changing world? We also dove into the all-important quest for aesthetic perfection and, of course, how to properly use their lingo—purr. It’s a fun, insightful convo about the generational gaps we all face and how we can bridge them by listening and learning.

It's Never Too Late to Reinvent Yourself (one step at a time)
This episode is all about reinvention! I’m joined by Shari Leid—a reinvention coach, author, podcast host, and friendship expert—who truly embodies the art of starting over. Her latest transformation began with an inspiring journey to all 50 states, where she connected with one woman in each state to learn and grow through their stories. That experience not only boosted her confidence but also gave her the clarity to make bold changes in her own life. Shari reflects on her quest for belonging, the lessons she’s learned from her incredible conversations, and how those moments of connection sparked a profound shift. Now, she’s filed for divorce, met an amazing new partner, and is gearing up to launch a book based on her journey—all while embracing the endless possibilities ahead. She’s living proof that when one door closes, countless others open. Just trust the process.

How Tara Dower Tackled Imposter Syndrome to Set the Fastest Known Time on the Appalachian Trail (in 40 days)
Grab your hiking boots and trail candy! I sat down with ultra runner and certified trail-blazer Tara Dower, who absolutely SHATTERED the fastest known time on the Appalachian Trail. What takes most people 5 to 6 months, Tara crushed in just 40 days, 18 hours, and 5 minutes – yep, from Maine to Georgia, 2,197 miles later. No biggie. In this episode, we dive into how she pulled off such a mind-blowing feat, from navigating mental battles (even record-breakers have imposter syndrome, y’all!) to dodging wildlife and dirt-napping along the way. Plus, the epic planning and teamwork it took to keep her moving forward. We also get into some bigger conversations about learning from failure, the need for more representation of women in athletics, what she wants her legacy to be and… wait for it… did she really encounter a Skinwalker in the woods?!

The Importance of Betting on Yourself (and your gut)
Are you a delusional optimist? Well I'm reformed and so is my guest Justin Crawford. You can miss us with the busy schedules, 2 hours of sleep, and anxiety-filled burn out culture. Anyhoo...Justin and I get into some real talk about personal growth, self-discovery, and the wild ride of entrepreneurship. Justin is in a new phase in life! We chat about the importance of living authentically, trusting your gut, and making meaningful connections (because let’s be real, surface-level friendships just don’t cut it anymore). Listen til the end because Justin drops some wisdom on the need for joy and actual face-to-face interactions—yes, those still exist — and some solid advice for anyone thinking about diving into the entrepreneurial world.
