Orange Juice Optional meets the Big Apple

Who needs mimosas when you’ve got Manhattan?

Join Michelle and Suzanne as Orange Juice Optional takes on New York City — one adventure (and one laugh) at a time.

In this week’s episode of Orange Juice Optional, Michelle shares how she almost didn’t go to New York. But once she arrived, New York unfolded in unexpected ways — from early mornings at the Today Show, to a charming little bookstore where her book Good Night Sweet Bear found encouragement (and maybe a hint of future recognition).

The conversation (and adventure) then shifts to the U.S. Open tennis tournament, where the ladies not only soaked in the sun, but also the energy, history, and tradition of one of America’s most iconic events.

Throughout this episode, they reflect on friendship, travel, and the beauty of saying “yes” — proving that even after fifty, stepping outside your comfort zone can lead to joy, laughter, and surprising moments of connection.

This is Part One of a special New York travel series — full of heart, humor, and the reminder that sometimes the trips we resist the most are the ones that change us the most.
