In this heartfelt and hilarious episode of Midlife Uncensored, Poppy and E sit down with E’s longtime friend Sarah, who’s seen her through everything from college days to career pivots and parenthood. Sarah opens up about her journey from high school teacher to labor & delivery nurse, and how becoming a mom inspired her to make a major midlife career change. The conversation dives into teaching struggles, nursing school with two young kids, and the realities of co-parenting after divorce.

Along the way, they laugh about old memories (including the saga of a stray cat named Romeo), talk about the chaos of dating apps, and reflect on what it means to rebuild, rediscover, and reconnect in midlife. Raw, real, and sprinkled with comedy, this episode is a reminder that growth never stops—and sometimes, the best chapters come after the hardest transitions.
