Cathy, Kirsten, and I sit down to talk about How About Now: Poems by Kate Baer. We explore the poems we connected with most, whether the tone feels heavy or introspective, and what the collection reveals about navigating the everyday. We also dive into how poetry can find beauty in the mundane, and why reading work like Baer’s feels so important right now.

We dive into our thoughts on The Golden Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and The Bachelor, what we love, what we don’t, and the moments that had us yelling at the screen. Ila also shares what college has been like so far, her journey studying interior design, and how much she’s grown since leaving home.

# 405 - The Longevity Journey with Cathy & Stacey - Part 2
Cathy, Stacey, and Christine join me for a follow‑up conversation about how they’re feeling after working with Danese Rexroad from Ways2Well. We talk about their progress, any changes to their medication, and whether they’re actually remembering to take it. We also reflect on how little our own mothers discussed menopause, and how it feels like our generation is the first to truly acknowledge it and get proper treatment.
Ways2Well is offering our listeners 10% off Comprehensive Bloodwork
Health Tests, Supplements, and Peptides.
