The 80s weren’t just neon, mixtapes, and big hair. They were the foundation that shaped who we are today.

In this episode of Fifty and Fearless, I take you back to the era that gave us freedom, resilience, grit, and unforgettable role models like Madonna, Tina Turner, and Grace Jones.

We talk about:

•  Independence and freedom (remember riding your bike until the streetlights came on?)

•  Resilience and grit (from bad perms to learning that not everyone gets a prize)

•  Bold role models who broke the rules and showed us how to be unapologetically ourselves

•  Real connection and community before social media took over

•  Why women in their 50s today are rewriting the rules of midlife

The 80s weren’t just fun, they built us into the fearless, powerful women we are now. And the best part? We’re just getting started.

Starting over after 50? This episode will show you why it’s never too late and why now is the best time to reinvent yourself.

We’ve been told a lie: that once you hit your 40s, 50s, 60s, even 70s, it’s too late. Too late to chase the dream, too late to start over, too late to become who you were always meant to be.

But here’s the truth: you are not late. You are right on time.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why midlife isn’t the end of possibility, it's the beginning. Because when you’ve lived, loved, lost, and gotten back up again, you carry a power and clarity that your 20-year-old self could never imagine.

This is what starting fresh after 50 really looks like:

✨ Choosing adventure over regret

✨ Choosing possibility over limitation

✨ Choosing you over the expectations of others

If you’ve ever thought your time has passed or wondered if it’s too late to begin, this conversation is your reminder: the second half of life can be the most fearless, fulfilling chapter yet.

In this episode:

• The myth of “too late” and why it keeps women stuck

• How life experience actually gives you the edge in reinvention

• Real stories of women starting businesses, passions, and adventures after 50

• The mindset shifts that make this the best time to take bold action

You’re not behind. You’re exactly where you need to be. And your story is only just beginning.

Going through a divorce or walking alongside your bestie can feel overwhelming, messy, and downright exhausting. But here’s the truth: you can shift the energy, rebuild confidence, and bring joy back into life, one intentional step at a time.

In this heartfelt and practical episode, I’m sharing my personal experience supporting friends through divorce. The exact tips, mindset shifts, and little daily actions that made the biggest difference.

We’ll talk about:

• ​ How to create an environment that lifts you up (yes, even if you’re surrounded by chaos)
• ​ Why clearing your wardrobe can clear your head
• ​ The confidence-boosting magic of a bright lipstick (and how it’s not about anyone else but you)
• ​ The “Joy List” exercise that sparks energy and motivation again
• ​ How to tackle the tough stuff (like the paperwork) without losing yourself in the process
• ​ The one role you should embrace as a bestie and the one role you should never take on

Whether you’re the one navigating the breakup or you’re the friend standing in the trenches, this episode is a mix of tough love, practical tools, and big-hearted encouragement. You’ll walk away with simple, doable actions that will help you (or your bestie) move forward with confidence, energy, and joy.

Because the truth is, I’ve seen women go from broken on the kitchen floor to stronger, more vibrant, and more fearless than they’ve ever been and you can too.

Friendships change, and sometimes, they end.

Not because of conflict or drama, but because you changed.

In this honest episode, I’m sharing what it’s been like to lose long-time friendships after 50, not out of anger, but from a deeper commitment to my own wellbeing. As I began setting boundaries and honouring my emotional energy, certain connections no longer felt aligned. And while it wasn’t easy, it was necessary.

This is what growth looks like in midlife:

 Choosing clarity over comfort.

 Choosing truth over obligation.

 And choosing yourself, without guilt.

If you’re navigating friendship shifts, quietly grieving someone who once felt like family, or learning how to stand strong in your no f**ks era, this conversation is for you.

In this episode:

•  The subtle shifts that signal a friendship has run its course

•  What boundary-setting revealed about my relationships

•  How letting go can feel both tender and liberating

•  A reminder that walking away doesn’t mean you failed, it means you’ve grown

You’re not alone. You’re evolving. And this is your time to protect your peace and move forward with power.
