This week’s episode is all about taking control of your own expectations. Stop letting others dictate what your life should look like. Learn how raising or lowering your expectations—based on your own needs—can keep you out of crisis and put you back in charge.

When a child don’t have no home training—whew! In this episode, Fannytasticlife dives into the roots of entitlement, spoiled behavior, and unchecked attitudes. Whether rich or poor, hungry or full, it all comes down to what’s happening (or not happening) at home. From enabling parents to kids running wild, we’re unpacking it all.
In today’s episode of Fannytastic Life, we’re talking about those moments when everything feels like too much — the spilled coffee, the flat tire, the sudden emotional spiral. How do you move forward when you're stuck in anger, frustration, or overwhelm? Take a breath. Take a beat. Let’s talk about real-life tools, rules of engagement, and managing expectations so you can shift your energy, pivot with purpose, and find peace in the chaos.
“Starting over?” That’s what someone asked me, assuming a new baby or another job meant I was back at square one. But let’s be real. I’ve already retired. I’ve built businesses. I’ve raised a family. I’m not starting over. I’m elevating. In this episode, we unpack the misconceptions about career shifts, motherhood, and what it really means to evolve on your own terms. Spoiler alert: I’m not starting over. I’m just getting better.
Ever find yourself asking people to repeat what they just said? Same! Is it just me—or are our ears, knees, backs, hips, and ankles all sending distress signals at the same time?! 😩😂 In this episode, I’m diving into the real talk about what it means to feel your age creeping up… and how we can laugh through it, strategize around it, and still thrive while shouting, “Can you hear me now?” 💃🏽💪🏽
Tune in as we embrace the aches, the changes, and the surprising joy of navigating this stage of life—with humor, honesty, and a whole lot of heart. Let’s figure it out together on this Fannytastic journey! 💫
I’m 45, and no, I’m not ashamed of my age. I actually tell people I’m five years older, just for fun. But here’s the truth I’ve been avoiding. I’m in pain. My body doesn’t move like it did at 20, and I’ve been pretending everything’s fine. In this episode, I finally say it out loud. My body is calling for a change, and I’m listening. This isn’t about shame. It’s about acceptance, self-awareness, and deciding to show up for myself in a new way.
Sometimes, we don’t realize that it's more than okay to keep learning and growing. We feel like we have to “arrive” before we can truly own who we are. But what if you've been enough all along? This episode explores the quiet struggle of imposter syndrome and reminds you that becoming doesn’t mean you’re lacking. It means you’re evolving.
Adventures in babysitting and love of summer.
