In this episode, I sit down with Fi, the founder of Choose Healthy, to explore what a golden gap year in your fifties can look like. We talk about realising life can get more vibrant as you embrace new chapters. Fi shares how she turned a midlife crossroads into a thriving health and fitness coaching business for women over fifty. Together, we outline practical steps for designing your own midlife pause: experimenting with part-time passion projects, inviting a friend to tag along, and nourishing your body with mindful meals and regular movement. We also discuss blending business goals with self-care, honouring evolving dreams, and mustering the courage to start fresh. If you’re seeking inspiration and tangible tips for blending adventure, health and entrepreneurship, this chat is for you.
