Between the Laugh Lines

About Between the Laugh Lines

You've spent years showing up for everyone else. And somewhere in there, a question keeps creeping in: who am I now, where am I going, what do I actually want? You're exactly who Between the Laugh Lines was made for. This is a podcast for women 40+ who are done coming last on their own list; smart, capable, and ready for honest conversations about the three things midlife actually asks of you: your money, your mirror, and your moment to claim who you want to be next. Hosted by Deb, a CPA who carried debt, rebuilt, and won't pretend a credential makes any of it easy. Deb and her guests talk with no shame, no jargon, and no lectures; just the conversations you wish someone had handed you sooner, or at all. Whether you're staring down a money habit you've been dodging, tired of beauty advice built for someone half your age, or quietly wondering who you are now that the old roles have shifted, you'll leave every episode feeling a little more seen, a little more capable, and a lot less alone. Every episode lives in one of three lanes, either solo or with guests: Money Truth — honest money conversations and real financial clarity, from a CPA who's actually been in the hole Honest Beauty — all things beauty and aging talk from a curious enthusiast, never a know-it-all Identity in Progress — the midlife question of who you're becoming, said out loud; including inspiring, real stories of women who chose themselves Warm. Honest. Funny where it counts. Imperfect on purpose. If this is your kind of honest, follow the show so the next conversation finds you; and share it with the woman in your life who needs to hear she's not the only one.

   Financial Infidelity: When Money Secrets Show Up in a Relationship | Net Worth Wednesday Ep. 3

   Half of people in a relationship admit they have held back money information from their partner, and plenty of them never meant to. Deb, a CPA, shares the morning she watched her then boyfriend’s car get repossessed outside their apartment, and what that surprise taught her about the quiet assumptions couples make with money. In this episode you'll learn the six most common hiding spots for money secrets and how to get out of each one, five easy openers for money conversations that don't feel like an interrogation, and three calm first steps if you've already discovered something your partner kept from you. Some Key Takeaways: Financial infidelity occurs when communication about money breaks down. Many couples hide financial information from each other, leading to trust issues. Assumptions about money can be as damaging as outright lies. Regular money check-ins can prevent financial secrets from developing.

   Normal Labs, Still Exhausted: The Blood Tests to Ask For in Perimenopause | Dr. Sarah Khan, PhD, MBA

   Your bloodwork came back normal. You're still exhausted, foggy, and gaining weight anyway. That's not a contradiction, and it's not in your head. Dr. Sarah Khan, PhD, MBA is an integrative and functional nutritionist in New York City. She was diagnosed with Hashimoto's at 14 and spent years being told she was fine before she went looking for answers herself. She now works with women whose labs say one thing and whose bodies say another. In this conversation: what a standard panel leaves out, how to ask for more without being brushed off, what happens when the answer is still no, and why the puffiness, the thinning hair, and the weight that won't move trace back to the same few systems. Also covered: a question to ask at the lab desk that can lower your bill, how to get bloodwork run without fighting for a referral, why eating less backfires in perimenopause, and the common prescriptions that quietly drain specific nutrients out of you. As promised on the episode, the five markers Sarah asks for: Fasting insulin (blood sugar) hs-CRP (inflammation) ALT and AST (liver) Thyroid antibodies, TPO and TG (Hashimoto's) ANA (autoimmune activity) Connect with Dr. Sarah:Website: https://www.sarahfunctionalnutritionist.com/Free root cause quiz: https://www.sarahfunctionalnutritionist.com/root-cause-assessmentSee her live at the Williamsburg Wellness Fair, Oct 1, Brooklyn ________________________ Between the Laugh Lines is the podcast for women who are done feeling invisible; here you will find honest conversations about money clarity, midlife beauty, and the confidence to reclaim who you are now.

   Subscription Creep: The Money Leaving Your Account That You Never See | Net Worth Wednesday Ep.2

   Here's an uncomfortable little game: guess what you spend on subscriptions every month. Write down your number. Because when women actually add it up, the real figure tends to land at nearly double the guess and there's almost always one charge they'd completely forgotten about. This week, Deb, CPA, and a recovering "I'll deal with it later" spender, walks you through a subscription audit you can do right alongside the episode. Not the obvious stuff. The charges that hide: the annual renewal your brain files as free, the free trial that quietly became a paying membership, the thing your kid signed up for that's still billing after the class ended. (There's even a David Bach storage-unit moment that made Deb look sideways at her own parents.) She also cracks open two places most people never think to look for savings, and with a couple of real examples that might make you a little mad you didn't know sooner. Then she hands you the tool to do it all yourself: a free Subscription Audit Calculator that does the math, shows you your real number, and comes loaded with the full discount lists she only teases on the show. DM AUDIT on Instagram @thedishwithdeb to grab it. This isn't about canceling everything and living like a monk. It's about the difference between money that leaks out and money you actually chose to spend. Between the Laugh Lines is the podcast for women who are done feeling invisible; honest conversations about money clarity, midlife confidence, self-trust, and reclaiming what comes next, hosted by Deb: CPA, founder of The Reclaim Concierge™, and someone who's lived every word of this.
