Navigating Between The Lines

Navigating Between the Lines is a podcast for women navigating friendship, motherhood, grief, identity, relationships, aging, and all the life transitions nobody really prepares you for. Hosted by Maggie Feil, it’s the conversations we’re already having with our friends—and the ones we’re sometimes only having in our own heads. Some episodes go deep. Some are lighter. Most start with Maggie wondering, “Wait… is this a thing, or is it just me?” Through honest stories, humor, and conversations about real life while we’re still living it, Navigating Between the Lines is a place to feel a little more understood and a lot less alone. Because none of us have it completely figured out. We might as well talk about it.

Navigating Between The Lines is a society podcast hosted by Maggie Feil, with 55 episodes on record and a Required Pod Score of 80.

  What Did I Even Say Here? | Your Thursday Check In

  Sep 30, 202613 min

  Send us Fan Mail This week’s episode was supposed to be about support. Instead? Maggie is tired, her back hurts, her brain is foggy, and everyone needs something. So… we’re checking in. A very real conversation about mental load, parenting older kids, motherhood, feeling overwhelmed, friendship, and the parenting happiness graph making its way around the internet. Plus, why everybody has their own version of hard, the 45-minute “conference call” with a friend that can save your day, and remembering that a full life can still feel like a lot sometimes. Also: Christmas decorations in September, a child who hasn’t had soap in his shower for four days, and officially being unavailable after 7 PM. Because sometimes life isn’t one big lesson. It’s just life. And we’re navigating it together. Follow Along Support the show

  We’re Growing Up Too: Midlife, Growing Kids & Still Becoming

  Sep 23, 202624 min

  Send us Fan Mail At 40, life feels very much in the middle. Some friends have babies. Some have kids driving. Some are starting businesses, taking care of parents, navigating health scares, changing careers, and somehow we’re all asking some version of the same question; where am I in all of this? After taking two weeks off, I came back to the idea of the sandwich years with a different perspective. This episode is about midlife, growing kids, aging parents, ambition, health, identity, and loving the life you’ve built without disappearing inside of it. Because while everyone around you is becoming who they’re becoming, you still get to become too. Follow Along Support the show

  Pilot 2.0: One Year Later

  Sep 2, 202629 min

  Send us Fan Mail One year and 52 recordings later, I’m revisiting the very first episode of Navigating Between the Lines . Pilot 2.0 is about what changed, what didn’t, and what a year of showing up taught me about grief, friendship, anxiety, ambition, consistency, motherhood and wanting more from a life you already love. Mostly, it’s about taking the leap before you know where it leads because you have no idea what the journey might teach you until you start walking it. Welcome to Year 2.

  The Sandwich Years: Back to School, Growing Kids & Being the Mom in the Middle

  Aug 26, 202617 min

  Send us Fan Mail The sandwich years hit differently when back-to-school season rolls around. This week, Maggie talks about motherhood in your 40s, raising growing kids while watching your own parents get older, and why this stage of life can feel so emotionally full. From kids who need less from us but somehow still need us constantly - to the mental load, overstimulation, changing family roles, and the strange feeling of missing versions of your children who are still standing right in front of you. Plus, why back to school feels like its own kind of New Year, why moms need community just as much as our kids do, and why Maggie is taking that idea offline with a very simple plan: coffee, donuts, and real conversation. Because maybe the sandwich years aren’t something we’re supposed to navigate better by ourselves. We’re all somewhere in the middle. We might as well talk about it. Subscribe to Navigating Between the Lines and come back next week for one year of NBTL: what changed, what Maggie learned, and where we’re going next. Follow Along Support the show

  I Did a 72 Hour Fast. Would I Do It Again? | NBTL Revisited

  Aug 19, 202655 min

  Send us Fan Mail RUNNING IT BACK: NBTL Revisited ️ This week we’re going back to the time my friend Heather and I decided not to eat for 72 hours. Would I do it again? Yes. Am I planning another one anytime soon? Absolutely not. These days, I occasionally do a 24-hour fast, and I’ve realized I didn’t need to keep doing the extreme version to keep the part that worked for me. We’re also talking about the endless “what I eat in a day” content, why I’m still looking for the woman eating pizza followed by the ice cream run, and the bigger question I keep coming back to.. what actually makes you feel good in your life? A quick note before you listen: This episode shares our personal experiences with fasting and is not medical advice. Listening back, there are definitely moments where I confidently repeat things I’d read about fasting like I had suddenly acquired a medical degree in those 72 hours. I had not. Please talk with a qualified healthcare professional before making decisions about fasting or your health. I took the part that worked for me and left the rest. Here’s the original episode.
