  • Midlife, Unscripted: Unleashing Your Next Chapter After 40
    2025/07/25
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    Welcome back to Women Over 40. Today we're diving straight in—reinventing yourself after 40 and discovering brand new passions. Let’s be honest, many of us hit midlife and feel an itch to do more, to be more, to finally pursue dreams we once shelved. Maybe the kids are grown, maybe you’ve outgrown your career, or maybe you’ve just realized that “someday” is right now.

    Take Vera Wang, who became a design icon not in her twenties, but in her forties. She left behind a prestigious career in figure skating and editing at Vogue, and channeled her creative fire into bridal fashion. Who would have thought the name Vera Wang would define luxury bridal gowns worldwide? Or look at Arianna Huffington, who launched The Huffington Post at age 55, turning a midlife pivot into a media empire. And then there’s Toni Morrison—she published her first novel at 40, and never looked back.

    But reinvention isn’t just for headline-makers. Susan Lister Locke, for example, was nearly 50 when she faced new beginnings after a divorce and a company loss. She didn’t just see the end of one chapter—she saw an opening. With self-reflection, she listed her likes, dislikes, skills, and dreams. She tapped into her love for art and jewelry-making, took classes in Italy, and eventually offered her creations in galleries from Nantucket to Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts.

    Why does this matter for women over 40? Because, as Elevate with Keri notes, this is the moment when age becomes a springboard for new beginnings, not a barrier. You bring wisdom, resilience, and connections. Reinvention isn’t about starting from scratch—it’s building on the life you’ve already lived, with all those hard-won experiences.

    So where do you start? One powerful approach is getting clear on what you really want. Get quiet, make lists, vision boards, or just journal it out. What excites you? What did you love as a kid? What feels missing now? As life coach advice from LoveQuest Coaching highlights, the push to change has to come from within—but surrounding yourself with new mentors, taking small steps like signing up for a class, or joining a new community, makes a world of difference.

    And don’t let the uncertainty paralyze you. You don’t need everything mapped out. Take it one step at a time, the way Susan or those late-blooming legends did. Maybe your next adventure is a business, maybe it’s art, advocacy, or even learning how to surf. There’s no right way to redefine your story.

    So if you’re feeling stuck, remember: greatness truly has no deadline. This is your time to flip the script, claim your space, and pursue new passions—because the best chapter might just be ahead.

  • Midlife Reinvention: Your Age Is Your Launchpad
    2025/07/23
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    Welcome to Women Over 40, the podcast dedicated to embracing reinvention, transformation, and bold new chapters. Today, I want to dive straight into a topic that stirs both excitement and anxiety—reinventing yourself after forty. Maybe you’ve hit a crossroads: the career you’ve grown out of, dreams you’ve put on hold, or a restlessness for something that’s just your own. Whatever your reason, let me remind you—you have more power and potential than you might imagine.

    Vera Wang became one of America’s most iconic fashion designers after entering the industry at forty, bringing her lived experience and unique flair to a world that seemed already established. Toni Morrison, celebrated for her profound storytelling, didn’t publish her first novel until she was forty. Julia Child introduced French cuisine to American kitchens with her first cookbook at forty-nine. These stories aren’t exceptions—they’re blueprints for what’s possible when you choose yourself, right now, at this age.

    So, what does reinventing yourself really look like? For some women, it starts with a simple act of curiosity. Shinde, a nursery owner in India, faced the loss of her family business and, at over forty, wondered if there was anything left to discover. She nurtured her curiosity, began experimenting with plants, and soon found her purpose not in following what others expected, but in listening to her own evolving ambitions. By learning new skills, seeking out mentors—even joining business groups despite language barriers—she turned her so-called “midlife crisis” into an era of growth.

    Reinvention is not about discarding everything you’ve built. Rachel Harrison-Sund, who pivoted careers in her mid-forties, says you’re never starting over; you’re starting from experience. The wisdom, resilience, and clarity you’ve banked over decades are assets you simply couldn’t have at twenty. Now is the time to ask, what do I want to explore—just for me, for this version of myself?

    Sometimes reinvention isn’t triggered by choice but by loss—a job ends, a relationship shifts, or your role as a mother changes as kids leave home. Keri Ford, who transformed her life and career after forty, realized the push didn’t come from outside coaches or books but from a commitment to explore her own needs and desires. Making lists, enrolling in classes, or even trying hobbies just for fun can light that initial spark. Susan Lister Locke did exactly this, taking art and jewelry-making classes after her retail career ended; that leap of curiosity turned into an entirely new business.

    If you feel resistance—self-doubt or fear of being “behind”—remember, the world’s most influential women broke the rules, broke through age barriers, and most importantly, broke away from limitations others set for them. Lao Gan Ma didn’t start her successful condiment business until 49. Mary Kay Ash created her iconic beauty empire after a career setback in midlife.

    Your age is not an expiration date. It’s a launchpad. If you’re feeling stuck, get around people who will support your vision. Start small—take the first step, and know you don’t need to see the entire staircase to begin climbing.

    Thank you for spending this time with me today. I hope you feel energized to try something new, fueled by the stories of women just like you.

  • Midlife Reinvention: Igniting Your Passion at Any Age
    2025/07/21
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    Welcome to Women Over 40, where we talk real reinvention, big dreams, and new chapters at any age. Today, we’re diving into one of the most exciting parts of life after 40: deciding it’s not too late to find your passion—or even pivot into a completely new field.

    Let’s skip the myth that by 40 or beyond, your choices are set in stone. The world is full of stories proving just the opposite. Take Vera Wang. She started out as a figure skater and journalist before entering the fashion design world at age 40—today, she’s a global icon synonymous with wedding couture. Toni Morrison published her first novel, The Bluest Eye, at 40, eventually earning a Nobel Prize in Literature. And Ariana Huffington didn’t launch The Huffington Post until she was 55. These women remind us: your age is a launchpad, not a deadline.

    But what does reinvention really look like day-to-day? Real women over 40 have done it, not just the legendary names. Susan Lister Locke is a perfect example. After a career in retail and a divorce right before turning 50, she sat down and made lists—not just about careers, but about what truly lit her up inside. She pivoted into real estate and finally allowed herself space for her long-suppressed love of art, taking jewelry-making classes for fun. Those hobby pieces became so admired, Susan launched a jewelry business, with her creations now sold in places like Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts. That started with one question: “What do I love, and where am I willing to begin again?”

    Then there’s the story of Shinde from Ashokvatika Nursery, who, in her 40s, faced personal upheaval and started tending her family’s neglected plant nursery. She experimented with creative projects like miniature houseplants in coconut shells, blending curiosity and patience. Now, she networks, learns about AI for plant care, and has grown this “second act” into a thriving small business, all by letting curiosity—and self-compassion—lead the way.

    So what are the common threads in these journeys? First, curiosity matters more than certainty. Reinvention isn’t about switching careers overnight; it’s about exploring, learning, and starting small. Second, clarity comes from honest self-reflection—think more about what feels energizing, not just what sounds practical. Third, surround yourself with support. Whether it’s tapping into a business collective, working with a coach, or enrolling in that class you’ve always eyed, community matters.

    Remember, reinvention often comes from listening inward—not just to what the world expects, but to the quiet voice of what you want next. The stories I’ve shared today—from Vera Wang to Shinde—aren’t outliers, but blueprints. The years after 40 can be the most exhilarating “what’s next” you ever write.
