HERself
As women and mothers of young children, it can be easy to compare ourselves to others. But your life isn't supposed to look like hers! Being your best self means standing firm in your decisions and always being willing to grow with a purpose. Are you wanting more ease in your marriage? Or more enjoyment as a parent? Are you looking for a strategy to the health challenges you have been facing recently? Do you feel like you have been staring at a stranger in the mirror since becoming a mother? Abby and Amy get vulnerable with topics around partnership, motherhood, health, and self improvement by interviewing authors, therapists, experts and everyday mothers. Our conversations will meet you with solutions and solidarity as you find a life path that feels aligned for you.

342: Our Unfiltered Thoughts About Turning 40
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Abby's 40th birthday served as the perfect launching pad for an honest conversation about aging and all the feelings that come with it. With most of our 30s spent raising kids, we are stepping into this new decade with a fresh perspective, and we're keeping it real about the insecurities, the mindset shifts, and the things we actively do to feel and look our best. We also explore the power of having older women in our lives as role models, share a meaningful mantra from Abby's grandma, and wrap up with a reminder that making peace with aging is so much easier when you're surrounded by people who own it unapologetically.
Key Topics Covered:
- Finding your personal balance between embracing aging and doing the things that make you feel confident and youthful.
- How dressing for your changing body can support a more positive relationship with it.
- The reality of working out as you get older, including injuries and setbacks, and knowing you're not alone in facing them.
- Why surrounding yourself with people who are unapologetic about their age can shift your entire outlook.
