#1. Welcome to JK It's Not About You!

  • Summary

  • Episode #1: Welcome to JK It's Not about you, with your hosts, Jen Rouse and Kelli Murcko!

    Just when we thought we knew what life had in store, the transition to being empty nesters flipped our world upside down. Rediscovering ourselves, we navigate the joys and trials of newfound freedoms, all while juggling relationships, menopause, and the evolving dynamic with our grown children. Our journey takes a poignant turn as we reflect on the emotional leap of sending our daughter with special needs off to college, a milestone filled with challenges and triumphs. This episode is a heartfelt invitation to those experiencing similar life changes, as we build a community of support, understanding, and shared wisdom.

    Our conversations unearth the complexities of love and self-discovery in our 50s, from the puzzle of toxic relationships to the amusing anecdotes of dating at this stage in life. We find humor and insight in the little things: fashion preferences, the choice between cars and trucks, skiing versus snowboarding, and the thrill of concerts versus sports games. We question the idea of "normal" as seasons change and ponder the beauty of life's transitions. Join us as we explore the vibrant tapestry of empty nesting, celebrating personal growth and connection, all with a dash of humor and sincerity.

    This is a "get to know you" episode where we discuss where Jen and Kelli were raised, their families, marital status and start diving deep into the types of conversations the ladies will have with you. We also have a special guest Alias Murcko, who is our family favorite game show host. He leads us in a fun game of "This or That!"

    So put on your cozy sweats and your beverage of choice while we unpack all things being in our fifties!
