About this listen

We are on a midlife mission to know it all (not a midlife mission to teach middle age women how to pick up young men......sorry ladies!)


Journey along with us as we learn something new every week…..from the rules of football, to how to grieve well, to the ‘joys’ of menopause….there’s no topic off the table!


‘If you don’t grow, you decay’, ya’ll. And we are living proof that growth can be loud, messy, and at times, hilarious.


Smart, funny and fiercely real…..tune in, grab your Cougar Cocktail and end your day wiser than when you began it.


Welcome to Cougar College, Ya'll.

  • Episode 27 - The Accidental Artist with Nancy Martin
    Feb 2 2026

    Episode 27, “The Accidental Artist,” is one of those stories that feels like it was written by the universe itself. We sit down with Nancy Martin to talk about the beautiful, winding road that led to the adoption of her daughter and the unexpected way creativity found her along the way. What started as simply surviving a season of life slowly turned into self-expression, healing, and an artistic journey she never planned but clearly was meant for. It’s a conversation about motherhood, identity, and how sometimes the things we never set out to become end up being exactly who we are. 💛🎨


    And may you end your day wiser, Y’all!!!

  • Episode 26 - The Great Cleanup
    Jan 26 2026

    Episode 26 – The Great Cleanup is your sign to finally break up with the plastics and mystery chemicals quietly taking over our lives. We’re diving into the not-so-cute truth about “forever chemicals,” where they’re hiding in your home, and the small, realistic swaps that actually make a difference (no, you don’t have to live off-grid or churn your own butter). From kitchens to skincare to the stuff we thought was “safe,” we’re learning how to clear the clutter, detox our spaces, and make choices that feel better for our families and the planet. It’s practical, a little eye-opening, and very much a “we’re in this together” kind of cleanup.

    Jan 19 2026

    In “A Kidney Stone Story: Paris, A Volcano & Pregnancy,” the Cougars take you on a rollercoaster that somehow includes international travel, a literal volcano, morning sickness, and the absolute nightmare that is a kidney stone. It’s one of those episodes where you laugh, cringe, and say “there’s no way this is real life” more than once.


    From chaos abroad to pain you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy, this episode is proof that life doesn’t pause for big plans—or big surprises. Buckle up, hit play, and prepare for a story you will never forget!!


    And may you end your day wiser than when you began it!!
