It Is What It Is

In this deeply personal premiere episode of The Sticky Truth, host Dave Tidler sits down with longtime friend and author Maura McGee to unpack the meaning behind the phrase "It is what it is." What begins as a common expression of resignation becomes a profound exploration of grief, love, faith, family, and resilience. Through the story of Maura's late husband Dave McGee and their journey through illness, loss, and transformation, listeners are invited to confront life's hardest truths — and discover that acceptance is not surrender, but strength.
