Noteworthy with Nan

Nan Philip

Real life. Real conversations. Noteworthy with Nan is a weekly interview podcast about how women are actually living their lives right now. Each week, host Nan Philip sits down with friends and women she admires for candid, in-person conversations about real life; no polished origin stories, no publicist-prepped answers. Just the honest truth: the highs, the lows, and everything in between. We talk about work, relationships, friendships, health, hobbies, shopping, and the moments that never make it onto a perfectly curated Instagram grid. Each guest also shares their Noteworthy Tips - the routines, tools, and systems they have built into their daily lives to help simplify, improve, and make the most of their days. No one has it all figured out. But by listening to how other women are navigating the messy reality of everyday life, we hope to spark new ideas, offer fresh perspectives, and remind you that you are not alone in the chaos.
