Episode 3 - Inge Flowers - The Wing Chun Warrior who found her fire in the electric guitar

In this episode, Stephanie reconnects with her longtime friend and aspirational Wing Chun warrior, Inge Flowers, and the conversation picks up exactly where they left off—mid-sentence, mid-laugh, mid-life. What follows is an open, funny, deeply honest discussion about waking up in mid-adulthood and choosing to live with far more colour, courage and curiosity than either of them ever allowed themselves in their twenties.

Stephanie and Inge explore the joy of reclaiming identity, from purple hair to teal hair, motorbikes to electric guitars, shark dives and Wing Chun classes, and the surprisingly profound power of doing things simply because they delight you. They talk candidly about ADHD, masking, anxiety, the strange expectations of “grown-up” life, and how choosing the unconventional path often reveals the most grounded version of yourself.

At the heart of the episode is a portrait of a friendship that has lost none of its warmth, wit or wavelength. Stephanie and Inge speak with the ease of two people who shaped each other’s young adulthood, weathered the same storms, and can still finish each other’s sentences decades later. Their conversation is sprawling, intimate, and unfiltered—the kind of exchange that only happens when you feel completely seen.

A conversation about getting older, getting braver, and deciding who you want to be when you grow up, told by two women who have never been particularly good at doing things the conventional way.
