    #439 - Justin Halpern's Story Behind Get Lost
    2026/07/09
    Justin Halpern joins me to talk about his new mystery novel, Get Lost, and the winding path that led him to writing it. We discuss the inspiration behind the book, crafting a mystery, and why fiction gave him the freedom to tell a completely different kind of story. Justin also looks back on the viral success of Sh*t My Dad Says, how posting his dad's hilarious one-liners on Twitter changed his life, and the lasting impact his father has had on his writing and sense of humor.

    2026/07/02
    This week we're discussing My Friends by Fredrik Backman and once again, we didn't all have the same opinion. We talk about what we loved, what didn't quite work for us, and why this bestselling novel has connected with so many readers. Along the way, we dive into friendship, found family, parenting, grief, and the moments in the book that sparked the biggest conversations around the table.

    #436 - One Year Menopause Health Update with Danese Rexroad
    2026/06/18
    I welcome back Danese Rexroad for a one-year check-in on my friends’ menopause health journey. Stacey and Cathy share what they've learned over the last year from bloodwork and hormone therapy to perimenopause symptoms, energy levels, sleep, and learning how to prioritize our own health. They share what's improved, what's still challenging, and why this process has been much more of a marathon than a sprint. Danese discusses why so many women are told their symptoms are just part of aging, how hormone health is deeply connected to overall wellness, and why feeling heard by your healthcare provider can make all the difference.

    #433 - Book Club: A Court of Thorns and Roses
    2026/05/28
    This week’s Book Club might be our most divided one yet because we finally read A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) by Sarah J. Maas. One of us loved the fantasy world, the romance, and the drama and some of us absolutely could not get past the growling, the flowery language, and the “sheathing” scene. We also get into why fantasy resonates so deeply with readers, the appeal of escapism, and how books like this become gateway reads for people who normally don’t read at all. Whether you’re Team Rhysand, Team Tamlin, or completely confused by fairy smut, this was such a fun discussion.

    #432 - Eliza Reid Is The First Lady Next Door
    2026/05/21
    Eliza Reid never expected to become First Lady of Iceland which is exactly what makes her story so interesting. We talk about growing up in Canada, traveling the world alone, proposing to her husband, moving to Iceland without speaking the language, and eventually stepping into one of the most public roles imaginable. What I loved most about this conversation was how much we talked about trusting yourself, taking chances, and learning to take up space. Eliza also shares what it was really like becoming First Lady with no rulebook, no staff, and no preparation for the role.
