From Colonoscopies to Christmas Cards with Betsy Bowers Hansen

Betsy returns for her second episode to talk about what really happens when you turn 45—starting with that surprise box in the mail and her eye-opening colonoscopy experience (spoiler: "virtual" doesn't mean what you think it means).

But this conversation goes so much deeper. We discuss why health screenings matter, the women who shaped us as business owners (shoutout to Katie Couric and Jen's Alpine Cafe), and what it means to lead the next generation of women entrepreneurs in small-town America.

We also get real about the exhausting expectations of modern motherhood, why Christmas cookie baking is actually a multi-day event, the power suits of the 80s versus where we are now, and how we're learning to pause, listen, and accept what we can and can't control.

This is an honest conversation about being 45—the health stuff nobody talks about, the business lessons we're still learning, and why doing a little better each day is enough.
