Let's Talk About Aging!

November 10, 2026 · 49 min

Show notes

I'm turning 40 in two months, and honestly? I'm excited. Today, I'm reflecting on everything my 30s taught me, from navigating divorce and working through my own trauma to finding a level of confidence and inner peace I never had in my 20s. I'm talking aging gracefully, why I don't feel the need to explain or defend myself anymore, how my approach to dating (and sex) has completely changed, and why I'm finally letting go of control and allowing the universe to surprise me.


I'm also sharing what I want this next decade to look like: slowing down, being more present with my kids, growing Uncommon James, falling in love, and making more room for the things that genuinely bring me joy. Plus, why I think your 40s could be your best years yet and why getting older is actually a gift. Cheers to 40!
