Description

Drinks With the Girls 🍸☕ | Real Talk for Women Over 40 Welcome to Drinks With the Girls, the ultimate podcast for women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s ready to live life unapologetically. 🎙️ Hosted by empowerment coach Karen Shatafian and literacy consultant/special needs mama Lisa Corricello-McDowell, we’re two longtime friends sharing real conversations about everything that matters to women in midlife. From navigating loss and grief, surviving empty nest syndrome, and redefining relationships to tackling menopause, self-reinvention, and setting rock-solid boundaries — no topic is off-limits. We laugh, cry, reminisce, and celebrate the messy, magical journey of becoming our truest selves. If you’re craving honest midlife conversations, heartwarming nostalgia, empowering advice, and a reminder that you’re not alone — pull up a chair (and a cocktail or coffee) and join us. Cheers to midlife reinvention, women empowerment, mental health, and the beauty of female friendship. New episodes drop weekly! Subscribe for your weekly dose of midlife wisdom, self-care tips, boundary-setting inspo, personal development, and the kind of girl talk you didn’t know you needed. 💖 🎧 Topics we spill the tea on: • Midlife women empowerment • Empty nest life + parenting adult kids • Self-care, mental health, and boundaries • Grief, loss, and healing • Career reinvention and personal growth after 40 • Friendship, laughter, and living life on your terms Your next chapter starts here. ✨
