The Weight of It All (And Why We Still Laugh) | EP 40

After a little break (life, right?), Karen and Trish are back and catching up like only they can—Southern charm, sass, and all the honest laughs. From unexpected moves and the emotional rollercoaster of cleaning out closets to the joy (and chaos) of traveling with dogs, nothing's off-limits. They dive into: The hilarious reality of trying to become minimalists How fashion choices can spark both confidence and confusion The power of manifestation (with a few side quests into acting dreams and true crime obsessions) Weighted vests, hot flashes, and why aging is better when you're laughing The sweet reminder that kindness still matters—yes, even at the DMV It’s a feel-good, laugh-out-loud, “yep, me too” kind of episode. Pour a glass of iced tea (or wine—no judgment) and join the conversation. 🔗Music by Butch Walker...check him out on Spotify Socials & Links Karen Mills Website | Karen Mills Comedy 🔗 https://www.karenmills.com/ Instagram 🔗 https://www.instagram.com/karenmillscomedy/ Facebook 🔗 https://www.facebook.com/karenmillscomedian/ YouTube 🔗 https://www.youtube.com/c/KarenMillscomedy Twitter 🔗 https://twitter.com/kmillscomedy Trish Suhr Website | Trish Suhr 🔗 https://www.trishsuhr.com/ Instagram 🔗 https://www.instagram.com/trishsuhr/ Facebook 🔗 https://www.facebook.com/trishsuhr/ YouTube 🔗 https://www.youtube.com/user/trishsuhr Twitter 🔗 https://twitter.com/TrishSuhr Mentioned on Today's Episode Trish's Favorite Weighted Vest JJ Barrows Artist & Comedian True Crime Doc Trish was talking about The Fox Hollow Murders Karen's Favorite Show Scarpetta Starring Nicole Kidman & Jamie Lee Curtis Takeaways 📍Reconnecting with friends can be refreshing and uplifting. 📍Moving is often an unexpected challenge that many dread. 📍Decluttering can lead to a minimalist lifestyle, but it's a continuous process. 📍Fashion choices can reflect personal growth and changing priorities. 📍Manifestation and pursuing dreams can lead to exciting opportunities. 📍Health and fitness are important for maintaining a vibrant life as we age. 📍Weighted vests can enhance workouts and provide unexpected benefits. 📍Personal health challenges can influence fitness routines and choices. 📍Having a clutter buddy can help in the decluttering process. 📍Aging gracefully involves staying active and open to new experiences.
