Turning 40: Birthdays, Milestones & Midlife Magic

Turning 40 deserves its own moment, and this episode is exactly that. To celebrate Courtney stepping into a new decade, we’re doing something special: Erin and our first‑ever guest, Bill Cox, take over the mic to interview her with a mix of heartfelt curiosity, unhinged humor, and questions she absolutely did not see coming. We open with a light reflection on how birthdays shape identity and how midlife actually feels (spoiler: not the crisis culture promised). Then the real fun begins as Erin and Bill ask Courtney their hand‑picked questions that cover everything from personal growth to pure chaos. A few of the questions they ask include: What are you most looking forward to over the next decade? Who are you becoming that 20‑year‑old Courtney would admire? And be honest… who is harder to co‑regulate, Erin or Bill? This episode is playful, honest, and full of the kind of laughter and storytelling that lets listeners get to know Courtney in a whole new way. Whether you’re approaching your own milestone or just here for the celebration, this one is full of midlife magic and birthday energy in all the best ways.
