What happens to connection when life changes the shape of a relationship?
In this conversation, Cait sits down with author, actress, podcast host, and mother of four Sarah Wright Olsen to explore the support that makes ambition possible, the painful experience that gave deeper meaning to Sarah's newest creation, and the simple family ritual that became something much bigger.
They talk about separation, grief, unexpected loss, motherhood-fueled creativity, and why staying connected doesn't always require being physically together.
In this episode, you'll hear:
• Who Sarah leans on to keep creating while raising four kids
• How a hard preschool goodbye planted a story she wouldn't return to for years
• How grief during pregnancy changed the story Sarah wanted to tell
• How motherhood redirected Sarah's ambition into something bigger than herself
• Sarah's take on chasing creativity without waiting for the "perfect balance"
