Ep 142 Hope in a Bottle: Products We Wasted Money On & What They Were Really Trying to Solve

In today's episode, I'm getting honest about something most women over 50 won't say out loud.

We've all bought something hoping it would be the thing.
The gummy.
The greens powder.
The tea.
The waist trainer.
The pink drink that promised energy and fat loss in one scoop.

Not because we're naive.
Not because we're lazy.
But because we were hopeful.
Tired.
Ready for relief right now, not six months from now.

This is the final episode of the year, and instead of "New Year New You" hype, we're having a grown-woman conversation about:

• Why smart women buy things that don't work the way we hope
• How the wellness industry uses our deepest desires to market to us
• Why taking a break doesn't mean you've lost yourself
• The real reasons we stay stuck (and the ones that finally move the needle)
• What to take with you into 2026 and what to leave behind

If you've ever stared at a product and thought, "Maybe this will help," this episode will make you exhale and say, "oh… it wasn't just me."

Because you're not failing.
You're human. And you care.
And that actually matters.

Listen. Reflect. And maybe toss a product or two into the donation box before the year ends.
