    Friendship Breakups in Your 30s: Why They Hurt More Than Dating

    Send a text Friendship breakups are one of the most painful parts of adulthood — and somehow we barely talk about them. In this episode of Navigating Between the Lines, Maggie reflects on why friendships can be so meaningful… and why it hurts so deeply when they change. From growing up and drifting apart to the quiet disappointment of relationships that slowly fade, this conversation explores what it means to hold gratitude for what a friendship was while accepting that it may no longer be part of your life today. https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelines/ Support the show

    Life Lately: Kids Growing Up, Missing My Mom & The Moments In Between

    Send a text I sat down to record this week and realized I didn’t really have a “topic.” But sometimes the most honest conversations come from just talking about what life actually feels like lately. In this episode, I’m sharing a real-life catch-up — from closet cleanouts and girls’ dinners to getting Chloe ready for the Daddy Daughter dance. That moment unexpectedly cracked open the grief I still carry for my mom and reminded me how much the people in our lives shape the moments we’re living. We talk about: • watching your kids grow up faster than you expected  • the quiet moments that hit harder than the big milestones  • why friendships matter so much in these seasons of life  • the internet rabbit holes everyone seems to be talking about lately  • and something I’m still figuring out at 39 - learning to stop second-guessing myself. Because most of life isn’t the big highlight moments. It’s the in-between. The car rides.  The kitchen messes.  The random Tuesday nights that somehow hold everything. If life has felt a little full, a little emotional, or a little “in between” lately, this episode is for you. https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelines/ Support the show

    Stop Saving the Good Outfit: A Spring Style Reset with Matt Sova

    Send a text Spring always feels like a reset and this week we’re talking about how to reset your closet without chasing every trend. I sat down with stylist and personal shopper Matt Sova to talk about spring fashion trends, finding your personal style, and how to feel confident in what you wear. If your closet feels overwhelming or you keep saving your “good outfits” for someday, this episode is for you. We talk about: • The real difference between fashion and style  • How to find your style if you feel stuck  • Spring fashion trends that actually work in real life  • How to elevate Athleisure without trying too hard  • Closet clean-out rules that make getting dressed easier  • How to pack for vacation without overpacking  • The 5 wardrobe staples everyone needs Spring is the perfect time for a reset, not because of trends, but because feeling like yourself again matters.

    Seasonal Depression Isn’t Laziness: Why You Feel Unmotivated in the Winter

    Send a text In this episode, I’m talking about that weird winter energy no one really prepares you for when life is technically fine, you’re still showing up, still doing the to-do list… but internally you feel a little muted. We’re getting into seasonal blues, high-functioning depression, nervous system resets, and why you’re not lazy, you’re just undercharged. I’m sharing what helped me this winter (last-minute flights included), what you guys said pulls you out of a slump, and how winter has a funny way of revealing alignment. If you’ve felt off but can’t quite explain why, this one’s for you.  Spring always shows up. And so do you. https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelines/ Support the show

    The Valentine’s Day Episode: Love Fern Energy

    Send a text This week on Navigating Between the Lines, we’re leaning into the fun side of Valentine’s Day — rom-com nostalgia, family traditions, candy opinions, and why this holiday doesn’t have to be that serious. Maggie is joined by her daughter Chloe, who shares her thoughts on school Valentine’s parties, handmade cards, and why you definitely don’t need a date to celebrate. Because sometimes Valentine’s Day isn’t about grand gestures — it’s just love fern energy.

    Please Stop Putting a Bow on Grief - with Gina VanTimmeren

    Send a text In this deeply honest, full-circle conversation, Maggie sits down with longtime entrepreneur and boutique owner Gina VanTimmeren to talk about the moments that shape us long before success is visible. From Gina’s early twenties living alone in London, to opening her business at 24, to navigating childhood complexity, grief, and loss—this episode explores what it really means to build something while carrying life alongside it. Gina opens up about losing her brother, becoming a mother, redefining strength, and how grief quietly changes the way we move through the world. Together, Maggie and Gina reflect on entrepreneurship without a rulebook, the invisible mental load of owning a business, and why freedom—not hustle—is the truest definition of success. This episode is about resilience, grace, and learning to ask for help. It’s about honoring the hard chapters without letting them define you—and trusting that growth and grief can coexist. https://ginasgr.com/ https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelines/ Support the show

    72 Hours, Zero Food: What a Water Fast Taught Us (+ a GLP-1 Bonus Chat)

    Send a text Maggie and her longtime friend Heather (owner of MI Hometown Furnishings) sit down for a candid conversation about completing a 72-hour water fast together — what it felt like, what surprised them, and what they’d do differently next time. They talk headaches, irritability, sleep and vivid dreams, the mental game of hunger vs. habit, and the very real post-fast cravings that no one puts on Instagram. Then, as a bonus, they dig into the GLP-1 conversation — the stigma, the “food noise” everyone talks about, side effects, what happens when you stop, and why Heather used it as a tool to reset her habits — not a magic fix. No perfection. No preaching. Just two women in their 40ish era comparing notes and trying to figure out what feels sustainable. https://www.instagram.com/navigatingbetweenthelines https://mihometownfurnishings.com/ AI Chapters: 00:00 Navigating Between Discipline and Grace 01:56 The 72-Hour Water Fast Experience 09:41 Physical and Mental Effects of Fasting 17:08 Fasting as a Lifestyle Choice 19:27 Listener Questions and Insights 25:45 Understanding Body Absorption and Supplements 30:01 The Impact of Loss on Health Choices 32:19 Exploring Fad Diets and Their Effects 34:38 The Rise of GLP-1 Medications 44:39 Navigating Weight Loss and Lifestyle Changes Support the show
