Summary
This episode is the mini-ep you know and love, but twice as long and with a new name! You ask, we answer!
Listeners ask about how to fit hobbies around a busy life, offer advice for the listener whose husband is in rehab, and have recs for tech-related books and alarm clocks. Plus, Doree and Elise reflect on nearly two (!) years with Elise as a co-host.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Forever 35, a podcast about the things we do to take care of ourselves. I'm Dori |
| 0:17.2 | Shafrier. And I'm Elise Hugh, and we're just two friends who like to talk a lot about serums. |
| 0:22.6 | And this is the first of our new format mini episodes that we're not calling mini episodes anymore. |
| 0:30.3 | Yes. |
| 0:30.8 | It looks like we're likely to call these mega mailbags based on the votes of our Patreon community. |
| 0:36.7 | Okay. |

| 1:38.3 | You can call or text us at 781-591-033 and email us at Forever 35 Podcast at gmail.com. |
| 1:46.7 | Part of the reason we are going to one regular, longer form episode per week instead of the two |

| 2:02.4 | Y'all know that I have been co-directing a documentary about kids who are growing up amid |
