Welcome to Sweaty, Petty, and Kinda Unsteady—the podcast for women who are doing their best, but also wondering why they walked into a room, where their reading glasses went, & whether this hot flash is trying to kill them. Join two sisters —a pediatric nurse & a first-grade teacher—as they navigate perimenopause, parenting, relationships, work, aging, and the everyday absurdities of adult life. It’s like catching up with your funniest friends over coffee (or wine). We’ll share stories, laugh at ourselves & vent about the things that drive us crazy!Marisa Byram & Dana Murphy Social Sciences

  • No is a Complete Sentence
    Jun 20 2026

    Ever find yourself saying, "I'd love to, but..." when what you really mean is "absolutely not"? Same.


    In this episode, we're talking about the tiny two-letter word that so many of us struggle to use: NO. From volunteering for one more committee, to attending events we would rather skip, to carrying everyone else's emotional baggage, we are discussing that it is ok to say no. It can feel like one of the hardest things to say, but it can be one of the healthiest things you can do. No is a complete sentence and one of the most powerful in the English language.


    Protecting our time, energy, and sanity is not selfish - it's survival. Because sometimes self-care can look less like bubble baths and more like declining the invitation and just staying home in sweatpants. Grab a drink, get comfy, and let's talk about boundaries.

  • Meet Your New Midlife Besties
    Jun 16 2026

    Welcome to our very first episode@ Against all odds, we found microphones and decided the world needed to hear our thoughts.


    In this episode, we tell you a little bit about ourselves. Consider this your warning: there will be laughter, sarcasm, oversharing, awkwardness, and occasional complaints about things that don't matter.


    We're sweaty. We're petty. We're kind of unsteady. And we're so glad you're here!
