About this listen

Orange Juice Optional is a podcast that celebrates both the crazy and serious sides of everyday life. Through the eyes and comfort of a 15-year friendship, and with over 100 years of stories and experiences between them, co-hosts Suzanne and Michelle tackle the ups and downs of their unpredictable empty nest lives. Their stories are relatable, funny and the best part is, they are all absolutely true! While they thought life would get easier after the kids were grown, they’ve since adapted the motto that ‘we couldn’t make this up if we tried’. Now, pop that cork, pour that glass of champagne, and celebrate along with us. Also, remember that no matter the time of day, Orange Juice is optional. This is a judgement free zone, because why would you dilute what is best in life.Copyright 2025 Relationships Social Sciences

    Jun 17 2025

    On this week’s episode of Orange Juice Optional:

    Suzanne and Michelle continue discussing Mel Robbins’ book “The Let Them Theory”. In the last episode, the ladies focused on the “let them’ part of this theory. However, in this episode, they will focus their discussion on the ‘Let Me’ part of the theory. This is the part of the theory that encourages readers to look at their own personal responsibility and personal power in any given situation. The ladies discuss how this theory works not only in everyday mundane situations, but also in more challenging interpersonal dynamics.

    Then before this episode concludes, Suzanne shares this week’s Mel Robbins inspired ‘Something to Sip on'.
