Welcome to Road-Tripping Through Midlife, a podcast about the adventures, detours, and discoveries that come with this stage of life.
My name's Carrie, and from my vintage camper we’ll share honest conversations about friendships, reinvention, family, health, and everything that comes with midlife.
There’s usually something sweet to share in the camper too.
Because wherever the road takes us, we don’t have to travel it alone.
Today I’m sitting down with my friend Missy-We’re going to talk about her journey through two marriages, what she experienced, what she didn’t recognize at the time, and how the second time around… she saw things differently and made a different choice.

Libby is a neuroscientist, a poet, and an author — and she recently wrote a piece that really stopped me in my tracks. It’s about the idea that in life, we move through these cycles — these thresholds.
