Hello Girlfriend

We share the odd and weird things that happen to your body as you age. Some funny, some embarrassing! But either way approach it with laughter! Because what else can you do?

This week I am celebrating my 30th wedding anniversary. I share how we survived it, the best advice a marriage counselor ever gave us, and why we are in it for the long haul! Serena reminds me that she is an "adult" with a career, and how I basically need to lay off. Of course, in a very loving way.

We share our love of tattoos and our very different styles of tats. Serena's tattoos are more like pieces of art and I like mine simple and dainty. We discussed "going under" and the fear of not coming back out for Serena's upcoming wisdom teeth removal and my colonoscopy. Fun Times!

Check out pictures of our tattoos on our IG @introtoadultingpod

In Ep. 30 Serena shares how dating someone older than you can be refreshing and fun!

We love our plants! We both are learning how to care for our plants which include a few Monsteras, Snake Plants, Pothos, and Serena's new plant baby, a Jumbo Alocasia! You can't just plop them in dirt! You need the right pot size, the right soil, and to know how to water them so they live and don't get those nasty gnats! Check out our Instagram and website to view pictures of our plants! On the website, they are under the Blog.

Anxiety is a physiological reaction to our environment but it shows itself in many different forms. Working in the schools we see a lot of children who have symptoms of anxiety. Do they have stomach aches, headaches, nausea? They may be anxious about the new school year. We share our experiences with anxiety, what our anxiety feels like, how we deal with it, and how to recognize anxiety in your child.

Once I turned 50 there are certain things I just stopped giving my energy to! Cute chonies, underwire bras, coordinating outfits, wanting to fix everything, are out the window! As my sister would say, "Not my circus"! I'm all about comfort in this era! I live in leggings, jeans, and t-shirts!

Serena shares that she doesn't give a flying f*ck (her words) about what people think! She shares an experience in which she spoke up when a couple was staring at her and her friend throughout their entire meal!

I hope you enjoy our little podcast! If you do please leave a review on Apple and where ever else you listen.

We are calling this our bullshit episode. It is back to school time and that leaves us both super busy this past week! So we are sitting, sipping, and bullshitting!

Serena has a 9-5 and while she is loving it, she is exhausted! Even too exhausted to entertain ex-boyfriends and dating. We discuss learning to let go when you realize you are on a different path and learning to love being single and having lots of me time!

New teachers, support staff, and anyone that works at a school.... the principal does not run the school....the front office staff does! Attendance, Admin. Assistants, Registrar, Janitors, and all other support staff keep any school running smoothly!

Did you know Serena is an esthetician? She has been encouraging me to take better care of my skin and in this episode she shares the products we must use and why they are important. I need to know the why or I won't do it. If there is one product that must be used, it is sunscreen!

She also shares an experience a fellow wax-ologist had with a BRO-zillian NSFW! Sorry Grandma and Nana!

Serena has a new job and I have a great entrepreneurial idea for traveling!

Then we share and discuss the different ways to help your child have a fulfilling high school experience, involvement in sports, clubs, or extra-curriculars are a must! There is something for everyone. Encourage your child to be the kind and caring student! You have to be a friend to make a friend.
