For the first time ever, we’re recording in person, and it felt like the perfect moment to hit reset and properly reintroduce ourselves.

In this episode, Cole and Meag get personal about who we are, where we’ve been, and why It’s Cool, Us Too exists in the first place. We talk about our careers, our twenties and thirties, the paths we’ve taken (and the ones we didn’t), and what led us to start a podcast centered on being a woman in your 30s and building a life that actually feels like yours.

If you’re new here, this is your official get to know us episode. And if you’ve been listening for a while, think of this as a little deeper context into the conversations we keep having week after week.

In this episode, we chat about:

• Recording together in person for the first time (and why it felt so special)
• Our career paths, what we do, and what we love about our work
• How our twenties shaped us (and humbled us)
• Why we started It’s Cool, Us Too
• The kind of conversations we want to have here, and the space we want this podcast to be
• Navigating your 30s without a single “right” timeline

This episode is honest, a little nostalgic, very us, and a reminder that you’re not behind, you’re not alone, and you’re allowed to design your life on your own terms.

Welcome (or welcome back) — we’re so glad you’re here.
