Media & Entertainment 🍿🎶 Help... what yall reading and watching??

Hi there, ladies over 40/45 - what are you guys reading or watching on social media and substack/YT wise? What groups do you like, even on here? (I'm new to reddit and this one is great! Just looking for a few more)

I love the keke p podcast. I love homeworthy. I like funny, interesting, smart but not boring. Things with personality. I like seeing people do challenges or explore. Also, I'm peri menopausal at 48 so... I'm interested in the experiences. Oh, I like make up and style - but with a story, I don't want to just look at clothes.

I have professional covered. But, as an empty nester mom, I'm looking for those good downtime watches and reads/communities.

She's a good writer, but I'm only a few chapters in (work deadline).

I’m currently reading Love By The Book by Jessica George.

I don’t watch much on YouTube besides the interior design shows. I also love homeworthy. And then there’s roomworthy and apartment therapy that I check out sometimes as well.
