Reinvention After 50: A Woman and Her RV | How a 12,000 Mile Solo Trek Across America Changed My Life with Michelle Fishburne


Listen Later

What happens when a midlife woman embarks on a 12,000 mile solo RV journey across America during the pandemic?

A remarkable reinvention story that has changed her life and the lives of thousands of others.

When Michelle Fishburne found herself an empty nester without a house, a spouse and a job, she leaned into her strengths (curiosity, a sense of adventure, the willingness to "do it scared") to guide her path.

What unfolded was an adventure of a lifetime!

She tapped into her inner strength, wisdom and her ability to ask questions (including asking a publisher if her idea was book material). 

What resulted is her book, Who We Are Now:
Stories of What Americans Lost and Found during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

On her solo journey Michelle sat down with hundreds of people across the US to find out what people had learned about themselves and life during the pandemic. What she learned was touching and profound.

Michelle also discovered new things about herself. You will love what Michelle shares about:

✅ Why being a Reinvention Rebel means getting out of your comfort zone
✅ How she developed pluck - spirited and determined courage - through her reinvention journey
✅ Why we should embrace, not resist, change
✅ How she shifted her mindset from "this part of my life is over" to a life-affirming and fun reinvention

There is so much wisdom, joy and possibility in this episode!
