Remember when we thought 40 was ancient… and we’d definitely have it all figured out by now? Same.In this episode, we unpack the gap between who we thought we’d become and who we actually are — the plot twists, identity shifts, expectations we’ve released, and strengths we never saw coming. It’s honest, reflective, and just self-aware enough to laugh at our former selves.We briefly touch on Kaira's adoption story and how that chapter shaped who she is today.
