This isn’t about pretending to have it all figured out. It’s about showing up, being real, and connecting over the experiences that shape us in this season of life.
If you’re navigating big transitions, asking new questions, or just need a space where you feel seen—you’re in the right place.
Pull up a chair. Let’s have the kind of conversations we all need, but don’t hear enough.
Real stories. Real laughs. Real Talk.
Real Talk After 50
Too Much Therapy? Not Enough? Mental Health After 50
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we open up about the real, often complicated relationship we have with mental health and therapy. One of us is navigating moderate depression with years of counseling under her belt, while the other is living with unmedicated ADHD—wondering if she should finally make that call.
We talk candidly about what it means to live in a world that still shames emotional struggles, especially for women over 50. From feeling like “too much” to wondering if we’re “not doing enough,” we unpack the invisible pressure to “hold it together” and why that’s so exhausting.
This conversation is about normalizing mental health, challenging stigma, and reminding you that you’re not alone. Whether you’re in therapy, resisting it, or somewhere in between, we hope this gives you permission to feel what you feel—and reach out when you need support.
