Midlife Metamorphosis: Unleashing Your Inner Butterfly After 40
This is your Women Over 40 podcast.
Welcome to Women Over 40. Today, let’s dive into reinventing yourself after 40 and the incredible freedom that comes with pursuing new passions at this stage in life. Forget the old idea that life’s biggest adventures end at 40—this is your invitation to see midlife as your launchpad, not your finish line.
There’s no denying that hitting your forties and beyond can feel a bit like reaching a crossroads. You may have spent years fulfilling roles—building a career, raising a family, or sometimes both—and yet wake up one morning with the unsettling question: “What’s next for me?” If that’s familiar, you’re not alone. Take Susan Lister Locke, for example. She spent her early years running her husband’s business and raising two kids. But approaching 50, as she faced divorce and a tough job market, she made a list, not merely of career goals, but of interests, strengths, and desires. That clarity led her to explore jewelry-making, a childhood passion she’d never pursued. Soon, her jewelry was selling in upscale shops from Nantucket to Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts. Susan’s story proves reinvention starts with getting radically honest about what truly excites you.
Of course, reinvention isn’t always about external achievement. Sometimes, the most important transformation starts with our mindset. Keri Ford, host of Elevate with Keri, describes turning 40 as “hitting a fast-forward button”—an invitation to focus on health, dreams, and personal fulfillment. Keri shares the stories of women like Toni Morrison, who wrote her first novel at 40, and Vera Wang, who entered the fashion world at the same age. At 55, Arianna Huffington founded The Huffington Post. These stories remind us that it’s never too late to start something new.
But let’s get real—reinvention requires courage. Comfort zones, as life coach Lisa Concepcion explains, can hold us back. She shares her own journey of getting “super clear about what kind of life you want,” and then making the often-uncomfortable leaps required to live it. Whether it meant moving closer to the beach, leaving a job that felt suffocating, or seeking out mentors and community, every small risk brought her closer to fulfillment and self-discovery.
Sometimes, reinvention is thrust upon us. Terri Bryant, a makeup artist to celebrities, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. She could have given up her passion, but instead, she turned her diagnosis into innovation—creating Guide Beauty, a brand of ergonomic makeup tools now changing the industry and empowering others. Her journey is a masterclass in turning challenge into a new calling.
Whether you’re contemplating a career pivot, rediscovering creative joys, or finally committing to a dream deferred, the path to reinvention begins with a simple question: “What do I want next?” Write it down. Take a class. Find inspiration in community—whether that means a coach, a group of like-minded women, or stories like the ones you hear right here.
