Send us a textEpisode 4:  Dorm Rooms, Drop-Offs & Adulting — A Year in ReviewMoms on Pause - Midlife, Menopause, & the MundaneIn this reflective episode of Pause Pleas3, we look back on our kids’ first year of college — and everything it stirred up in us. From the teary goodbyes at dorm drop-off to the quiet of the house that followed, we unpack what this milestone meant as moms, women in midlife, and humans in transition.We talk about the surprises (good and hard), the letting go, the checking in (too much? not enough?), and the strange in-between space of still parenting… just from a distance. Meanwhile, we’re managing our own changes —  identity shifts, and the everyday stuff that doesn't pause just because we’re feeling all the feels.What did we learn this year? About them, about ourselves, about what’s next? Grab your coffee or your wine — we’re talking honesty and hope as we close one chapter and look toward what’s ahead.Because as it turns out, they’re not the only ones growing.Subscribe, share, and take a deep breath — you’re not alone. Let's pause together.
