  • Why "What's Possible" May Be Limiting You with Magda Mook [Encore]

    What if asking what's possible is actually limiting what can be achieved?

    Terry Yoffe sits down with Magda Mook, CEO of the International Coaching Federation, for a conversation about coaching, human development, and creating meaningful change. Magda shares how taking risks, moving through fear, and staying open to an unexpected career path led her from economics and international trade to leading one of the world's most influential professional coaching organizations.

    Together, Terry and Magda explore why coaching can play an important role in a thriving society, how individuals and organizations can remain relevant as the world changes, and why focusing on what's needed rather than what's possible can expand the way people approach change.

    Magda also offers a powerful reminder to stay curious, never assume you've arrived, and find work that connects with what truly drives you.

    Listen for an inspiring conversation about purpose, possibility, and using your work to make a meaningful difference.

    Terry recorded her first episode at age 78, despite hearing that there were already too many podcasts and that finding an audience would be difficult. One hundred episodes and more than 90 extraordinary guests later, she shares what the experience has taught her about leadership, embracing age, taking chances, and following your heart instead of listening to the naysayers.

    Key takeaways include:

    • Why it is never too late to bet on yourself 
    • How courage can lead to personal transformation 
    • Breaking free from limiting beliefs about age 
    • What 100 conversations taught Terry about creating change 
    • Why saying yes can open unexpected doors 

    Terry's message is simple: your age does not determine what is still possible. If you are ready to challenge your own limiting beliefs and create meaningful change, reach out and continue the conversation with Terry.

  • Reimagining Midlife: Creating Your Next Chapter with Michael Clinton [Encore]

    In this encore episode, Terry Yoffe sits down with Michael Clinton, former president and publishing director of Hearst Magazines and author of the bestselling book Roar Into the Second Half of Your Life (Before It's Too Late). Together they explore what it really means to create meaningful change in midlife and beyond.

    Michael shares the powerful philosophy behind “life layering,” a concept that encourages people to build multiple passions and identities rather than tying their entire sense of self to one career or role. From running marathons on seven continents to becoming a photographer and author, Michael explains how curiosity, courage, and intentional planning can open new chapters at any age.

    The conversation explores the ROAR framework for personal reinvention: reimagining the future, owning personal circumstances, creating an action plan, and reassessing relationships. Michael also challenges the culture of ageism and encourages listeners to replace the idea of a midlife crisis with a midlife awakening.

    For anyone wondering what comes next in their career or life, this episode offers both inspiration and practical tools for moving forward with confidence.

    Key takeaways include:

    • Why life layering creates a richer and more resilient identity
    • How the ROAR framework helps people reinvent themselves
    • The danger of tying identity to a job or career seat
    • How to rediscover passions from earlier in life
    • Why midlife can be the start of a powerful new chapter

    In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Terry sits down with Allen Collins, a business owner, speaker, founder of Hollow Labs, and a man in long-term recovery whose story embodies resilience, purpose, and possibility. Allen opens up about his early struggles with addiction, the cycles of relapse he endured, and the turning point that ultimately helped him rebuild his life from the ground up.
