This Is What Your Friends Actually Talk About (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is the conversation you have with your best friend when there's no agenda — no topic prepared, nothing to perform, just two people talking the way friends actually talk. Sarah and I didn't plan this episode, and that's exactly what makes it one of the most honest ones we've recorded. Talk Sh*t and Laugh exists to make women in midlife feel less alone, and there's no better proof of that than sitting in on a real, unscripted conversation instead of another list of advice. If you've ever wish
The Lies We Were Told: "Do What You Love" & "Love Is Enough" (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Somewhere along the way we were handed a set of rules: do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life. Love is all you need. Follow your passion and the money will follow. In this episode of Talk Sh*t and Laugh, Michele Wang and Sarah Walton dig into the advice we absorbed without ever questioning it — where it came from, why it sounded so good, and the quiet damage it did when real life didn't cooperate. From careers built on passion that stopped paying to marriages held together by
The Beliefs We Had to Unlearn (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Talk Sh*t and Laugh, Sarah and Michele get into the beliefs they grew up with that haven't survived contact with adulthood.

No advice, no fix — just two people talking through what it looks like to change your mind about something you were sure of. Listen
When Is It Enough? Money, Achievement & Recognition (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What does "enough" actually mean when it comes to money, achievement, and recognition — and why does the goalpost keep moving no matter how much we hit? In this episode, we get into the quiet, often uncomfortable question of enoughness: how we define it for ourselves, why external validation never seems to fill the gap, and what it looks like to sit with wanting more without a tidy resolution. As always, we're not here to fix it — just to talk it through. Listen to us on: Apple Podcasts - https:
What We Actually Do When No One's Watching (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alone time looks different at every age. In this episode we talk about what we actually do when we're alone — and how that's changed since childhood, adolescence, and our twenties. Michele's current version of alone time: online shopping without ever checking out. Sarah's: reading, unsurprisingly. No advice, no fix — just an honest conversation about solitude and how we spend time with ourselves.
