We love sharing our conversations with inspiring women like Nicole Eggert.

You may remember Nicole from her roles in Charge in Charge and Baywatch and we talk about both of those journeys. From despicable behavior from a fellow cast member to slow motion running on the beach, she shares her journey with honesty and humor.

She also shares her current battle with Cribriform Breast Cancer, a slow growing and rare type. We find out how she is fighting cancer with the same determination that she has showed at every stage of her life.

She is truly an inspiration for all women over 50.

Women over 50 are getting the message that we are not invisible. In fact, we have stories to share and many new adventures still to enjoy.

Our guest this week is 50+ essayist and speaker Kerri Devine. Kerri is the creator of Hot in Charleston, an intergenerational community of women sharing their stories, struggles and insights on midlife, motherhood and menopause. She is also a producer for the new Midlife Monologue events.

Kerri describes her personal experience with empty nesting and menopause and why she felt driven to bring a community of women together to share stories and empower others. Her creative platform invites authors, musicians, actors and more to tell their stories so that somehow, you see your own. What is more powerful than that.

There is so much more to the pelvic floor than most women realize.

This week we invited Dr. Sara Reardon to explain the anatomy of the pelvic floor and the problems many women may silently struggle with in that area. From menstruation to menopause, Dr. Reardon has created a comprehensive book entitled FLOORED: A Woman's Guide to Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage.

Whether you are struggling with painful sex or incontinence and prolapse, this book and our conversation will be invaluable resources for you.

We are talking decluttering your home on this last July replay episode.

We are joined by former guest Dana K. White. Dana is an author and podcaster as well as creator of the No Mess Decluttering process. She shares with us the importance of a good black trash bag and the 4 simple things we should do everyday to keep our house clean. We talk about two valuable questions you should ask when starting to declutter and how to break that sense of overwhelm that so many of us feel.

This episode was one of our most downloaded and it continues to be listened to 3 seasons later.

For the month of July, we are replaying some of our listener's favorite episodes. The first is with organizer Marni Jameson.

There are many transitions in midlife. Organizing your home is a big one.

Do you keep a larger home as an empty nester? Do you downsize? Are you overwhelmed with memories and things and you can't decide what to do with them? Do you have a parent moving in or do you have to clean out their home?

On this new episode, we have the answers. We invited home and lifestyle author Marni Jameson to answer questions on where to live, in what to live and with what. From specific charts to detailed emotional analysis, she explains it all in her book: Rightsize Today to Live Your Best Life Tomorrow.

It's time to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of the Marriage Equality Act!

We invited back Tammy and Kim Franklin, two of original plaintiffs in the Obergefell vs. Hodges to talk about their experiences and how their lives have changed. The Franklins were one of six couples that brought this case to the Supreme Court in 2015. The Supreme Court ruled in favor of same sex marriages and that same sex marriages will be recognized nationwide.

In this bonus episode, Tammy and Kim share their experiences and growing concerns in this current political climate. They walk us through how their lives have changed and how much work there still needs to be done.
