Between Besties: Boots, Books & Choosing Not to Shrink

Send a text

Are you disappearing into adulthood… or fully inhabiting it?

This month gave me cowgirl boots, a last-minute hair appointment miracle, five powerful books, and a postponed trip to Hawaii. On the surface, it all felt random. But underneath it was one clear question: am I choosing my life — or slowly shrinking inside it?

In this Between Besties episode, I’m sharing what buying my first pair of cowgirl boots taught me about confidence, why realizing I hadn’t been showing up in pictures hit harder than I expected, what skiing with my son revealed about staying capable as we age, and why we postponed Hawaii with only six months left before our last child leaves home.

This isn’t about midlife reinvention. It’s about refusing to disappear.

If you’ve ever felt like adulthood quietly turned the volume down on you — this conversation is for you.

Press play and let’s talk about choosing not to shrink.
