    #014: Burnout, Breakdowns & Getting Back Up

    We’re back and not just back to podcasting, but back to ourselves (kind of). In this episode, Amy and Emily sit down for a real-life catch-up after a season of doing all the things: launching businesses, sending kids to college, navigating loss, and realizing—yep—we’ve been in a bit of a slump. This one’s a little different. Our girl Stef couldn’t join us this time (we miss you!). But her energy and wisdom are always with us, and she’ll be back soon to keep it even more real. This isn’t an episode about having it all figured out. It’s about what happens when you don’t—when life is full and your tank is empty. From late-night family weekends to fresh starts in your 50s, we talk about what’s been hard, what’s helped, and the simple things (like a 50g protein bowl or exercise hacks) that can help you feel just a little more grounded. Whether you’re in the thick of parenting, grief, work stress, or just feeling off your game, this one’s for you. It’s unfiltered, a little funny, and full of those “yep, me too” moments. 🎧 Press play for: What burnout really looks like (and why we don’t see it coming)Midlife anxiety, worry brain, and the invisible weight we carryEasy resets that actually work when life feels like too muchAnd a reminder that it’s okay if you’re not okayUnfiltered conversations, endless relatability.

    #013: When It’s Not Just Menopause: A Wake-Up Call for Women in Midlife

    We’re back after a little pause (because, you know... life), and this episode is one we had to share. Amy brings on her cousin Nancy for a powerful and personal conversation about the moment that stopped her in her tracks...literally. What started as a flutter in her chest turned out to be something far more serious. Not one, but two heart attacks. If you’ve ever chalked up symptoms to “just stress” or “maybe menopause,” Nancy’s story is your wake-up call. We talk about the danger of dismissing our own discomfort, what a heart attack feels like (spoiler: not always like the movies), and why so many women delay asking for help. But don’t worry, this isn’t all heavy. There’s plenty of laughter and the kind of honest friend chat you can only get here. Because even the serious stuff feels easier when you’re not going through it alone. In this episode, we unpack: Heart attack symptoms in women over 50 (they don’t always look how you think)Menopause and heart health (the conversation you should have with your doctor)What it feels like to experience SVT (supraventricular tachycardia)Why so many women delay asking for help or brush off early signsHow to advocate for yourself at the doctor’s officeHonest conversations about what it’s like to juggle caregiving, marriage, and your own well-being during midlife🤍 Press play, then forward it to a friend. 👉 If you’ve ever brushed off symptoms or said, “I’m fine,” this one’s for you. 🩺 Quick heads up: We’re not doctors, so don’t take this as medical advice, but definitely take it seriously.
