Owning It in Your 40s: Aging, Identity & Knowing Who You Are with Zeinab Hegarty
Radio host Zeinab Hegarty joins us for an honest, hilarious, and raw conversation about life in your 40s. From dating younger men and adjusting to life in Cairo after moving from London in her 20s, to navigating career, identity, and societal pressures—Zeinab brings her signature wit and wisdom to the mic.
We talk about aging, relationships, friendships, decision paralysis, and what no one really prepares you for as you grow older. She opens up about caring for her aunt with dementia, the emotional labor women are expected to carry, and how society subtly (and not-so-subtly) nudges women toward egg freezing—as if time is always running out.
Whether you're in your 20s, 30s, or well into your 40s, this episode is for anyone figuring out life on their own terms—without the pressure to follow a set timeline.
