Episode 23:  Gather, Grumble, Repeat 

Moms on Pause - Midlife, Menopause, & the Mundane

In this episode, we discuss the beauty and madness of holiday traditions—midlife style. Bring on the ibuprofen, fewer breakable ornaments, and a strict “no one talks to me until I’ve had coffee” policy. We unpack the rituals we grew up with and the new traditions we’re trying to invent now that the kids are older, our patience is thinner, and our hormone levels fluctuating like the broken lights on the tree.

It’s festive. It’s honest. It’s slightly chaotic. It’s the permission slip you need to celebrate the holidays like a woman who has finally realized she doesn’t have to host, bake, decorate, or sparkle unless she wants to.

Subscribe, share, and take a deep breath — you’re not alone. Let's pause together.
