Today on 40ish: Nicole is still in wardrobe crisis. She’s retreated back to skinny jeans and some decidedly mumsy leather trousers (absolutely do not say the word jeggings). Meanwhile, she’s attempting—against all odds—to convince Lauren to sign up for a 26-mile charity walk. (Spoiler: the chances are slim)  as Lauren is far too busy debating whether it’s socially acceptable to join in a TikTok dance with a group of 12-year-olds. Elsewhere, a listener writes in with an excruciating dilemma after finding herself Maid of Honour to a spectacularly rude bride, and another woman shares a mortifying café mix-up when she confidently shares a coffee with a total stranger. It’s midlife confusion, second-hand embarrassment, and questionable fashion choices—business as usual.
