Host Carlene reunites with high school friend Sarah Lau for an intimate conversation about navigating life's challenges and joys as women in their forties.

• Sarah shares her experience turning 40 with a 16-month-old baby and a nine-year-old daughter
• Motherhood feels different at 40 compared to 30—less energy but more experience and purposefulness
• Medical professionals increasingly normalize pregnancy in your late thirties/early forties
• Returning to work after maternity leave in your forties can open doors to new career opportunities
• The biggest misconception about turning 40 is that you're "on the downhill" when it's actually an upward trajectory
• Going through divorce in your thirties can feel like failure, especially within certain cultural contexts
• Finding love again after divorce takes time and personal growth
• Setting rigid life timelines (marriage by 28, kids by 30) creates unnecessary pressure
• Taking breaks or detours in your career journey isn't catastrophic in the context of a 45-year career
• Women in their forties often have better relationships, clearer priorities, and more self-acceptance
