In this episode, we open up about what it’s really like to take the road less traveled—from choosing to stay true to our sexuality at a young age and loving one another unapologetically, to stepping out on our own as a young LGBTQ couple, leaving traditional career paths, and building a family through IVF.

We’re sharing the messy, magical truth of choosing a life that doesn’t follow the rules—and the big, bold leaps we’ve taken to build the one we truly wanted.

We talk about trusting your gut, redefining success, and embracing the detours that make your journey uniquely yours. If you’ve ever felt behind, out of sync, or like your life doesn't fit the mold—this episode is your reminder that your timeline is exactly right.

In our very first episode, we’re pulling back the curtain and inviting you into our world. Meet your hosts, Michelle and Lisa Cast—longtime partners, moms, and co-navigators through IVF, NICU stays, career transitions, and everything in between. We’re sharing why we created The Cast Compass, what this podcast means to us, and how astrology helped us find clarity in some of life’s most overwhelming moments. Whether you're a millennial mom, navigating a big life change, or just looking for real, unfiltered conversations with a side of astrology—you’re in the right place.
