Meagan used to have a recurring dream in which she was paddling a small boat, close to the water, the plants along the shoreline close enough to touch. It took her until her mid-30s to realize: oh, that was kayaking!

In the first episode of Midlife Lady Leisure Pursuits, Sarah and Meagan discuss their experiences paddling a variety of waterways from river to lake to ocean and future excursions they hope to take. Meagan also shares her thoughts on renting vs. buying a kayak and why buying her own at the age of 40 felt like such a pivotal midlife-lady moment.
