What if getting older didn’t mean toning yourself down—but turning yourself up?

In this GlowInto story, Jen introduces us to content creator Jody Bissell, whose colorful style, bold prints and infectious energy first caught her attention on Instagram. But behind the clothes and the personality is a story you might never know simply by following someone online.

Remaking Jody: Dressing for Joy and Taking Up Space is about more than fashion. It’s about navigating change, finding joy again and becoming comfortable taking up space as the woman you are today.

GlowInto explores how women over 40 are rewriting the old rules of aging and style—proving that color, confidence, creativity and self-expression don't come with an expiration date.

What happens when the life you worked so hard to build no longer feels like the life you want?

In this episode of Glow & Tell, we talk about something many women begin questioning after 40: Are we allowed to change our minds?

We explore career and identity shifts, relationships and divorce, finances, changing roles, visibility, friendship and community—and the complicated realization that something can have been right for you once and still not be right for you now.

We also dig into the difference between truly outgrowing something and simply going through a difficult season. Because changing direction doesn’t have to mean erasing your past or regretting the choices that brought you here.

After a 20-year career in the Air Force, Karlyn did not set out to simply retire. She had served, led, organized, supported, adapted, and built a life around discipline and structure. When that chapter came to a close, she found herself facing a question many women eventually ask: What comes next?

Around downtown Belleville, Christine Blanquart could rightfully be called the Queen of Main Street.

She has already brought her creativity and entrepreneurial vision downtown through Blanquart’s Rusty Gem Vintage Market. Now she is beginning an exciting new chapter with Fountain House at the Square.

GlowInto has the exclusive first look inside the new space, along with details about Christine’s plans and her vision for what Fountain House will become.

Rebecca Willmann’s story is about whole-person health, reinvention, and what it means to build a life that feels more aligned with who you are becoming.

In this episode, Rebecca shares how her work in physical therapy, running, and yoga through WholeBody reflects her belief that wellness is about more than just the body. She also opens up about the personal changes that reshaped her own life, the difficult decisions she had to make, and the courage it took to move toward something healthier, happier, and more whole.

It’s a conversation about movement in every sense of the word—physical, emotional, and personal—and a reminder that longevity is not just about living longer, but about creating a life that feels good to live.

What makes a woman a strong leader? In this episode, I reflect on my recent Little Black Book presentation, Leading With Authenticity, and the conversations that came out of a room full of women exploring leadership together. From empathy and leadership styles to Wonder Woman, Rebecca from Ted Lasso, leading under pressure, and choosing a successor, this episode looks at what women bring to leadership — and how strong leaders help create more leaders around them.

Introducing Glow & Tell, a new series within the GlowInto podcast where we have real-life conversations about the things women experience after 40. In this first episode, we’re talking about friendships after 40—how they change, why some relationships fade, how new connections form, and what it means to find the right circle for this season of life.

What would you tell your younger self if you could sit down with her today?

For Sarah Herzing, the answer comes from a life shaped by resilience, growth, hard decisions, and learning to trust herself along the way. From becoming a teen mom and leaving high school early to building a career, raising her family, serving her community, and becoming a woman who no longer feels the need to make herself smaller for others, Sarah’s story is about how much can change when you keep moving forward.

In this episode of the GlowInto Podcast, Sarah talks about the experiences that shaped her, the lessons she had to learn the hard way, and the perspective she has gained at 46. We also talk about community involvement, personal boundaries, confidence, and what she now understands about supporting others without losing yourself in the process.

It’s a conversation about becoming more secure in who you are—and realizing that your earlier chapters do not get to determine how the rest of your story is written.

Christine Lampe: Where Structure Ends and Art Begins

What happens when the practical, structured life you’ve built makes room for something completely creative? In this episode of the GlowInto Podcast, Christine Lampe shares how, at 60, she began a new chapter as an abstract artist after decades working in the structured world of healthcare and office management.

Christine talks about discovering painting during the COVID years, building a creative business, and realizing that the organizational and analytical skills from her first career didn’t have to be left behind — they could actually help support what came next.

It’s a conversation about creativity, reinvention and the freedom to discover another side of yourself at any age. Christine’s story is a reminder that starting something new doesn’t mean starting over. Sometimes, everything you’ve already learned becomes part of what you’re growing into next.

Anne Kalaher’s story is about independence, reinvention, resilience, and the courage to keep becoming more of yourself.

From moving out on her own at 17 and building a life from scratch, to motherhood, a long career as a hairstylist and salon owner, and a deeply meaningful partnership with her husband, Danny, Anne has continued to trust her instincts through every chapter.

Years later, she is still creating, performing, and stepping into new versions of herself—most recently through her remarkable Cher tribute show.

In this episode, I share Anne’s story along with my own experience seeing her perform live and witnessing just how fully she brings that part of herself to the stage.
