Have people gotten entirely too comfortable, or are we just getting older?

In this episode of Verses & Vibes, Coco Love invites Petty Patty and Cousin Pet Peeve Pete to pull up for a grown-folk conversation about the little things that get under our skin after 50. From speakerphone conversations in public and surprise visitors to group texts that never end and folks who leave one bite of food in the refrigerator, nothing is safe from the side-eye.

But beneath the laughter lies a bigger question:

Are we becoming pettier with age, or are we simply less willing to tolerate foolishness?

With humor, honesty, and relatable moments, this episode reminds us that growing older doesn't mean we've lost our sense of humor—it just means we've gotten more selective about where we spend our energy.

So grab your favorite drink, get comfortable, and prepare to laugh at yourself a little.

Because if we're being honest...

Petty Patty lives in all of us.

Welcome to A Team / B Team—where friendship gets drafted, loyalty gets tested, and nobody is safe from the group chat truth.

It’s a quick conversation about the friendships, that surround us. Who is on your team? Are they loyal, or just around some times. Let's break down the friendship circle like a draft board—who shows up for you, who disappears when it matters, and who’s really on your roster when life gets heavy?

Sometimes you have to re-evaluate the lineup. Because not everyone who cheers for you is built for your A Team—and not every B Team player is a bad person…

Welcome to the draft.

There comes a point where protecting your peace isn’t optional… it’s necessary.

In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to put that “Do Not Disturb” sign up—not out of anger, not out of avoidance, but out of growth. Because sometimes the noise isn’t just out in the world… it’s in the expectations, the constant access, the quiet pressure to always be available.

With humor, honesty, and a whole lot of “that’s so real,” we get into:

• Why we struggle to set boundaries (especially with people we love)
• How constant availability can slowly drain you
• The guilt that shows up when you finally start choosing yourself
• And what it looks like to create space without losing connection

We also talk about family—because let’s be honest, it hits different when it’s your people, your children, your grandbabies, and the roles you’ve always played. Learning to say “not today” doesn’t mean you love them any less… it just means you’re learning how to love yourself too.

And for those of us over 50?
Whew… peace feels different. It’s not about reacting anymore—it’s about recognizing what doesn’t deserve your energy before it even gets close.
