  • Why Not Now?: What My 50th Year Really Changed

    Why Not Now?: What My 50th Year Really Changed
    2026/01/29
    A year ago, turning 50 became an experiment in choosing “now” over “later.” My dear friend Ben McLauchlin joined me then – and now joins me a year later to reflect on what actually shifted when experiences stopped being postponed and presence became the priority. From long-talked-about trips to unexpected moments of stillness and connection, we chat about what mattered, the surprises, and what didn’t need to be planned to be meaningful. This episode is a thoughtful look at how paying closer attention can quietly change the way time feels... and how we live inside it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    2026/01/17
    Alcohol is deeply woven into our culture — from celebration to stress relief to social connection. But what does the science actually say about how alcohol affects the brain and body?In this episode, we’re joined by health psychologist and alcohol researcher Dr. Megan Strowger, PhD to explore the physiology behind alcohol’s effects on sleep, anxiety, mood, inflammation, and long-term health. This conversation isn’t about judgment or restriction. It’s about understanding the science so we can make informed, grounded decisions about our own relationship with alcohol.
