    A Message From Meagan & Sarah

    Welcome to The Mom Hour, a podcast co-hosted by Meagan Francis and Sarah Powers from 2015 to 2025. We wrapped production in June of 2025, but we’ve left our library of episodes available for anyone who wants to listen. So while you won’t find any new episodes in this podcast feed, we hope you enjoy the archives and that the more than 800 topics we’ve covered over the years remind you that you’re not alone, no matter what’s going on in your life as a mom. Enjoy the show! Want to know more about our decision to sunset the show? Listen to Episode 503.

    Visioning & Future Casting In Midlife

    Time is slippery—especially when you’re standing in midlife, looking both forward and back. Today Meagan and Sarah continue unpacking one of the most elusive and shape-shifting concepts we wrestle with: time. How do we imagine the future, how do we plan for it (tarot cards, anyone?), and how does our relationship to longterm planning and future-casting change in our forties? We explore the common traps we fall into when envisioning what’s next, the lessons that still haven’t quite landed, and how midlife has reshaped our goals, timelines, and even the way we dream. Join us! This is Part 3 of a three-part series about Time running this spring. Check out Part 1: On Balance & Busy-ness and Part 2: Time-Saving, Time-Shifting, Time-Surrendering.

It’s a conversation full of warmth, nostalgia, and gentle reminders to savor the stages as they come…and go.
