But then I met Kelly Howard, Founder of Fit is Freedom, Host of the Fit is Freedom Podcast, and Bestselling Author of FIT: Active & Ageless for Life. In addition to being a Fitness Consistency Expert and coach, Kelly leads women in their 50's, 60's, and even 70's on adventure trips to places like Costa Rica, Mexico, and the Smoky Mountains.

Meet Connie Inukai. As a serial “Grandmapreneur®”, Connie speaks to retirees or soon-to-be retirees on the benefits of pursuing entrepreneurship in retirement.

After teaching for 40 years at John Hopkins University and University of Maryland, Connie became an award-winning inventor at the age of 68. For people who like to eat out in restaurants, but have difficulty reading the small print on a menu or bill, she invented a handheld magnifier and light, with a calculating device to figure out a tip and split the bill in seconds. Thus, the name Tip ‘n Split®! Learn more about it here.

Author of “How I got My Product on QVC, The Today Show, The View, and More…In Retirement”, she helps others generate free publicity for their products.

She is the creator of Write Your Selfie®, where she inspires people to write their life stories in a fun and easy-to-read format so grandchildren and future generations will enjoy turning the pages to learn about their ancestry and life lessons. She is passionate about working with dementia sufferers and their families to preserve the memoirs of this “invisible” population.

Featured in Entrepreneur magazine, “6 Reasons to Pursue Entrepreneurship in Retirement,” Connie encourages Baby Boomers to have an active retirement through business or social entrepreneurship.

Right now, I'm going through a new life season and with that comes some fear.

No question - change is scary. BUT, that fear also means you're about to do something that's going to help you expand into the next version of yourself.

In this episode I'm sharing with you what's happening in my life right now and how you can embrace fear and vulnerability to acheive your goals.

That question is the perfect title for my guest Star Hansen's new book.

Star is known as the Clutter Whisperer and after speaking with her I understand why!

Star helps people look at clutter in an entirely different way - not thinking about storage bins, labels, and folders, but digging into the deeper meaning of their stuff to help figure out WHY they feel overwhelmed by the clutter in the first place.

This was one of the conversations where the light bulb goes on!

Some of the things we discussed:

And, Star is offering my listeners a FREE copy of her book! You can grab it here.

The gorgeous man. The women fighting over him. Sigh....

I will admit, I've never seen the show. I've read two reviews that are completely different.

But from the trailers and promos the problem I see is that not one of these women are being themselves. Where's the episode where they sit around in sweats watching Netflix?

How about an episode where they don't have their hair and makeup done?

In other words - where are the real midlife women???

This show was about expanding the audience and showing diversity. I'm not seeing it.

Have you watched it? What are your thoughts? Please post below - I'd love to know.
