 Great friends Kristin and Meghan are pulling back the curtain on mother-daughter dynamics with the conversations we've all been dying to have. When was the last time you wondered who your mom was before she became "Mom"? Or wished you could explain to your mother what dating apps are without the inevitable eyebrow raise? This podcast dives headfirst into today’s generational divide. Meghan and Kristin aren't just talking about what’s different (spoiler alert: everything has changed), but celebrating the beautiful constant: mothers who want their daughters to write their own stories, even when the chapters make them nervous. The magic happens when wisdom flows both ways. These moms aren't dispensing advice from on high anymore, they're soaking up insights from daughters navigating a world they never knew. It's knowledge transformed into wisdom through authentic exchange, proving that the best conversations happen when everyone brings something to the table. Listen as they bridge generations, celebrate female bonding, and demonstrate that the mother-daughter relationship isn't just about surviving the teenage years, it's about evolving into something far more interesting: a friendship between women who happen to share DNA.@Meghan Caponiti and Kristin Hocker 2025 人間関係 社会科学

  • Four Thousand Mondays: Living a Life Worth Living with Jodi Wellman EP 6

    Four Thousand Mondays: Living a Life Worth Living with Jodi Wellman EP 6
    2025/10/29
    In this deeply engaging and uplifting conversation, Kristin and Meghan sit down with Jodi Wellman, speaker, author, and founder of Four Thousand Mondays, to explore what it really means to live a life worth living. Drawing from her book You Only Die Once and her acclaimed TED Talk, Jodi shares how contemplating our mortality can spark a more intentional, joyful, and meaningful life. The trio dives into the psychology of memento mori, the power of scarcity to enhance appreciation, and how agency, humor, and self-compassion can help us build lives of purpose. Through personal stories of loss, recovery, and near-death experiences, they remind us that aliveness is found not in grand gestures but in small, conscious choices—like savoring coffee outdoors, laughing with loved ones, or simply noticing a bird outside the window. Key Points Memento Mori in Modern Life: Remembering that life is temporary isn’t morbid—it’s a tool for living with vitality and meaning. Four Thousand Mondays: Jodi’s signature concept reframes time scarcity as motivation; knowing our Mondays are limited pushes us to make each one count. Quality Over Quantity: A good life isn’t about longevity but depth and width—living with joy, purpose, and connection. Agency and Action: Research shows that almost half of our happiness comes from intentional actions—small steps can spark transformation. Self-Compassion and Reframing: Being kinder to ourselves, even humorously, shifts perspective and resilience. Finding Meaning in Small Moments: Joy often hides in simple acts—petting a dog, seeing an old photo, or pausing to breathe. Jodi’s message is both a wake-up call and a warm invitation: life is fleeting, but that truth can be freeing. When we stop postponing joy and start paying attention—to ordinary moments, to our own choices, to the preciousness of time—we reclaim our agency to live wider and deeper. Whether it’s counting Mondays, practicing self-compassion, or taking one small bold step, this conversation reminds us that a life worth living isn’t about having more time—it’s about making the most of the time we have.

  • Beauty in the Suck: Dr. Shieva’s Playbook for Smarter OBGYN Self-Advocacy EP 4

    Beauty in the Suck: Dr. Shieva’s Playbook for Smarter OBGYN Self-Advocacy EP 4
    2025/10/01
    Hosts Kristin Hocker and Meghan Caponiti talk with Dr. Shieva, a Connecticut OB-GYN and midlife strategist, about her stage-II ovarian cancer journey and the facts most women (and many clinicians) miss. She reframes ovarian cancer from a “silent killer” to a subtle disease with no screening test, and gives practical steps to catch problems earlier and advocate inside a messy healthcare system. No screening test for ovarian cancer. A Pap smear does not screen for it; mammograms/colonoscopies are different types of screening. Silent” is a myth, it’s subtle: look for persistent (≥2 weeks) pelvic bloating, pain, or pressure. Pelvic exam limits: Bimanual exams often miss masses; request a pelvic ultrasound when symptoms persist (expect possible out-of-pocket costs). Adopt this mindset: “High index of suspicion, low threshold to look, calmly.” Avoid panic, but don’t delay. Her path: Long history of endometriosis → abnormal cyst → surgery revealed stage II ovarian cancer; treatment included chemo and surgical complications, plus lessons on scaling back, boundaries, and survivorship care. Family history matters: Know cancers on both sides (breast, colon, ovarian, uterine, melanoma, pancreatic, prostate, GI). Consider genetic testing and risk-reducing conversations if history is significant. Risk-reducing salpingectomy: For women done with childbearing, removing fallopian tubes (e.g., at C-section or another surgery) can lower ovarian cancer risk because many cases originate in the tubes. Whole-person care gap: Oncologists focus on survival; patients often need additional proactive support for sexual health, tissues, and emotional recovery. Community & voice: Sharing experiences helps others catch issues earlier and feel less alone. Mindset mantra: “Find the beauty within the suck”—allow space to complain and look for what helps you move forward. This is your practical ovarian-cancer know-how. what to watch for, which tests to ask for, and how to self-advocate. anchored by a compassionate, real-world survivor’s lens. .
