Cougar College
We are on a midlife mission to know it all (not a midlife mission to teach middle age women how to pick up young men......sorry ladies!)
Journey along with us as we learn something new every week…..from the rules of football, to how to grieve well, to the ‘joys’ of menopause….there’s no topic off the table!
‘If you don’t grow, you decay’, ya’ll. And we are living proof that growth can be loud, messy, and at times, hilarious.
Smart, funny and fiercely real…..tune in, grab your Cougar Cocktail and end your day wiser than when you began it.
Welcome to Cougar College, Ya'll.
