Millie’s husband is about to climb a mountain AND spend three months doing military duty. Will she survive? Will the kids survive? What about the 4 chickens, 2 dogs, 1 cat, and a choke-prone horse? We shall see. But one thing is certain, life is a lot harder for many other military spouses out there, so if you’re one of them – thank you.
And speaking of things that are hard, the new year has got the moms thinking about their health and wondering which of the myriad fitness options to try, stating with farm yoga and a sound bath. They discuss the laundry list of things the internet tells them they’re supposed to be doing: cardio, strength training (but not too much strength training), sauna, ice baths, and salt water to name a few. Maxine shares her favorite health-focused Instagramers for women of a certain age and Millie gives a dissertation on Orange Theory.
Who is that woman in the mirror? Why is it so much harder to stay in shape now? When did they get so old? And what’s with the characters at the gym? Will the friends be able to achieve the elusive “fit over 40”? You’ll have to tune in to find out!
