  • Coffee date with friends

    I love listening to these ladies’ conversation each week! I enjoy hearing their thoughts and opinions about a variety midlife women related subjects. Usually I am laughing and wanting to chime into the conversation. It really is like a virtual coffee date on the porch with friends.

  • Lost me with the praise for Obama and Kamala

    I’ve enjoyed this show for awhile but the recent adoration for Obama and Kamala without equal praise for Milania or other Republicans just didn’t have a place in the goal of this podcast. Or maybe it did? I’m unfollowing and it makes me sad.

  • So Good!

    This has become one of my favorite podcasts. The topics are well-chosen and always interesting, practical and relatable. The hosts are genuine and down-to-earth. I appreciate that the women weave their faith into the show. It’s like sitting around a table having coffee with my friends. I love the “I’m a Fan” recommendations at the end. Keep it up, ladies!
