In this Season Two finale of TheraSwifts, Meredith and Lauren share some big news about what’s next for the project. After 60 episodes, our beloved co-host Meredith is stepping into a new chapter of her life and will be leaving the podcast.

This era, as we’ve known it, is ending. The duet is becoming a solo.

Lauren and Meredith reflect together on the incredible growth of this community, everything they’ve built together, and the way Taylor’s music has held space for so many stories of loss, love, and resilience. And Lauren gives listeners an exciting sneak peek at what’s coming next for TheraSwifts: a new format, a new rhythm, and the same heart-centered mission to explore healing through the soundtrack of our lives. ✨

It’s a farewell to the version we’ve known… and the beginning of a whole new era.
