The Somewhere in My Lifetime Podcast

Somewhere in My Lifetime is an intimate, multi-voice audio series about ambition, sacrifice, and the complicated legacy between a mother and her daughter. Mae left her small hometown with a suitcase full of dreams and an unshakable belief that talent and determination would lead her to stardom. But as the music industry reveals its darker truths, Mae’s journey becomes one of survival rather than success—marked by hard choices, quiet compromises, and sacrifices she never planned to make. Years later, Mae’s daughter Sugar lives the life Mae once dreamed of. Famous, admired, and carefully managed, Sugar feels the constant weight of her mother’s control shaping every part of who she is. When Sugar begins reading Mae’s private diaries, she uncovers the hidden cost of her success—and the painful truths her mother buried to protect her. Told through shifting points of view, diary entries, and personal testimony, The Somewhere in My Lifetime Podcast explo
