Description

🎥 Welcome to this week's episode, where we dive deep into the messy, real, and often humorous side of midlife! Join us as we navigate a week that felt a little "off"—from the struggles of parenting, to our amusing takes on life, along with some heartfelt moments reflecting on aging and Alzheimer's. 

 

💔 We get candid about tough subjects like quality of life and the emotional weight of caring for aging parents, spiced up with our patented humor. Expect lots of laughs, some serious thought-provoking conversations, and a genuine look at the challenges of our current times, including those pesky super moons that seem to throw everything out of whack!

 

🐾 Plus, we share our experiences with pets and how they can mirror our feelings way too accurately (looking at you, Rufus!). Don't miss the light-hearted tales about coffee runs and how a simple high-five can make a difference in someone's day.

 

✨ If you're looking for unqualified, unsolicited, but totally relatable opinions on midlife—this is the place to be! Whether you're here for the laughs or the real talk, we hope you feel a little less alone in this crazy journey.
