 Are you in your “Everything Era”... aka, that wildly confusing decade-ish where you have to make some of the most significant decisions of your life – all at the same time? Your 20s and 30s are full of big transitions — career pivots, changing cities, wondering if/when you’ll get married, having kids, not having kids, losing friendships, building new ones… It’s a lot. And somehow, the world expects you to make all the right decisions with no real guidance (and a highlight reel constantly playing in the background). Here’s the good news: You don’t have to figure it out alone. Introducing the “Girls Night” (hosted by me, Stephanie May Wilson, 9x author and TEDx speaker!) – the podcast version of the group chat that fills your cup instead of draining it. You know that rare kind of girls' night…the one where you laugh until your stomach hurts, cry a little, get real about what’s going on in your life, and leave feeling like you can actually do this? That’s exactly what the Girls Night Podcast is all about. With over 7.3 million downloads and 3,900 five-star reviews, it’s where women in their “what-am-I-doing-with-my-life” era come to feel less alone and way more equipped. Because let’s be honest.. googling “What am I doing with my life?” at 2 AM isn’t working, and you know it. As listener Adrienne puts it: “It feels like being welcomed into the coolest inner circle of incredible women who want you to be the best version of yourself possible. Stephanie and her pals make you feel loved, seen, and heard. The episodes are honest, they're raw, and they're hilarious.” So, if your brain feels noisy and your heart feels uncertain, put your earbuds in. You’ve got a Girls Night waiting.2025 Stephanie May Wilson Ciencias Sociales Desarrollo Personal Relaciones Éxito Personal

    Girls Night #301: The Aunt Sharon Effect: Why Family Questions Hit So Hard (and what to do about it!)
    Jul 14 2025
    Today we're tackling something I know so many of you are dealing with as we head into summer family gathering season. Have you ever been at a family event when someone - let's call her Aunt Sharon - starts asking those pointed questions that somehow manage to hit every single insecurity you've been trying not to think about? You know the ones: 'So, are you seeing anyone special?' followed immediately by 'You're not getting any younger, you know.' Or maybe it's 'When are you giving me some grandchildren?' or 'Are you still doing that little blog thing?' Cue the internal screaming, right? Today we're diving into what I call 'The Aunt Sharon Effect' - why these well-meaning questions feel like such a gut punch, and most importantly, how to handle them with grace while protecting your own heart and mind. We'll cover practical scripts you can actually use, mindset shifts that will change everything, and how to walk away from these conversations feeling empowered instead of deflated. Because here's what I've learned: the way we handle these moments says so much about how confidently we're walking in our own authority. And building that confidence? That's exactly what we're going to work on today. Let's dive in! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Girls Night #300: How to Live Daily Life with your Best Friends (Even as an adult!) — with Liz Forkin Bohannon

    Girls Night #300: How to Live Daily Life with your Best Friends (Even as an adult!) — with Liz Forkin Bohannon
    Jul 7 2025
    Have you ever scrolled through Instagram seeing friend groups on vacation together, celebrating everything as a unit, and genuinely wondered, "How do they all live in the same city? How did they find each other? And how can I find my people?" Maybe you've moved somewhere new and you're still making small talk with acquaintances months later. Or you're tired of being the one who always has to reach out first, scheduling friend dates 30 days in advance like business meetings. If you've ever felt like everyone else has their tight-knit friend group figured out while you're still searching for yours, you're not alone. In this episode of Girls Night, Stephanie sits down with entrepreneur and community builder Liz Forkin Bohannon to talk about how to build the kind of intentional community we're all craving — even when you're starting from scratch. What You'll Learn: Why most Americans have friendship completely backwards (and the mindset shift that changes everything) The four pillars of building lasting community that actually work in real life Why you need to commit to consistency BEFORE you feel connected (not the other way around) The "look for the losers" strategy that's more effective than trying to break into existing friend groups How Liz went from knowing zero people in Portland to living next door to her best friends The practical steps they took to buy property together and create intentional community How to have difficult conversations that deepen trust instead of damaging relationships The science behind why friendship is literally a matter of life and death (the data will shock you) You'll relate to this episode if you've ever: felt like everyone else has their friend group figured out while you're still searching, moved somewhere new and struggled to build meaningful connections beyond small talk, or wondered if deep adult friendships are actually possible outside of college. We cover everything from why Americans live in isolation to practical steps for building community, from the loneliness of moving to a new city to creating support systems that last through every life stage. Stephanie shares about living nine minutes from her best friend in Spain and how it's revolutionizing her perspective on proximity and friendship. Liz vulnerably walks through her journey from complete isolation growing up to now sharing property with multiple families in Portland, proving that intentional community isn't just a dream — it's totally doable.

  • Girls Night #299: How to Be Happy for Your Friends When You're Sad for Yourself

    Girls Night #299: How to Be Happy for Your Friends When You're Sad for Yourself
    Jun 30 2025
    Hey friend! Welcome to Girls Night — your home as you navigate your Everything Era. I'm Stephanie May Wilson, and if you've ever had to excuse yourself to cry in a bathroom at someone else's celebration, this episode is for you. You know the feeling, right? You're genuinely happy for your friend who just got engaged, promoted, or pregnant — but there's this other part that feels like each piece of good news for someone else somehow makes your own dreams less likely to come true. If you've ever wondered how to be happy for friends when you're struggling with jealousy of friends' success, you're absolutely not alone. Today, I'm giving you a complete survival kit for celebrating friends' success when you're still waiting for your own good news. We'll talk about navigating wedding jealousy when you're single, baby shower jealousy when you're trying to conceive, and promotion parties when you're job searching. But first, let me tell you about the day before my husband Carl proposed to me, when one of my good friends got engaged — and I completely broke down at an Italian restaurant. Because here's what I learned that changed everything: just because someone else got something before you doesn't mean they got it instead of you. Your story is still being written, and someone else's timeline doesn't determine yours. So grab your coffee, put in those earbuds, and let's dive in. Learn more about your ad choices.
