When Linda Rivero was confronted with the passing of her husband, she found herself struggling to cope with grief. Little did she know, this would be the catalyst for her to uncover a passion for music and a newfound mission to help others through their own hardships--leading her to create the revolutionary healing program SOAR, and the website 55AndBolder.co.

What could Linda's approach mean for those struggling to find hope in the midst of despair? You never get really done with it, but it does morph and change.

My special guest is Linda Rivero.

Linda is the founder of 55 and Bolder, a company that empowers women 55 and older to reclaim their lives after experiencing significant loss. Linda's empathetic coaching helps her clients rediscover their passions, find purpose, and live vibrant, fulfilling lives.

A versatile entrepreneur, Linda has had a diverse career, including positions as a counselor, educator, circus photographer, university professor, and travel planner. Her belief in the healing power of creativity led her to study vocal improvisation with musical legends Bobby McFerrin and Rihanna, infusing her coaching approach with a strong emphasis on creative pursuits as a means to navigate grief and loss.

In this episode, you will be able to:

1. Transform your grief and suffering into meaningful creative and self-nurturing activities.
2. Reignite your sense of passion and purpose after experiencing the loss of someone near and dear.
3. Find your way through grief through personal growth and development.
