  • Recipe for Reinvention: Reinventing Yourself Means Learning to Let Go

    What's possible when you lean into your dreams, take action and then let go?

    Ever notice that things unfold in a simpler (often less stressful!) way?

    That when we're willing to make forward progress AND trust things are moving in our direction, we can get a lot further than when we try to control every step of the way? (I'm a recovering control freak myself. You too?)

    Letting go can be tough. It's human nature to want to control things. To try and shift things in the direction of our dreams.  On our timetable.

    But things hardly ever work out that way. In fact, we often end up expelling more energy than if we learned to let go and trust in the first place.

    If only it was that simple! But it is possible to make forward progress and learn to let go.

    In this episode, I share about how you can learn to let go to support your reinvention dreams.  Highlights include:

    ✳️ Why letting go is so important in our personal development journey
    ✳️ How trying to control things leads to frustration and lackluster results
    ✳️ How leaning in and listening to our inner wisdom can help us realize our dreams
    ✳️ How I learned to let go of control (and move toward my dreams with joy (and so much less anxiety)
    ✳️ My before and after "letting go" stories and the powerful lessons I learned about myself
    ✳️ The 3 key ingredients you need to help you let go and realize your dreams more easily!

    and so much more wisdom and food for thought.

    If you're noodling over the possibility of reinventing yourself or you're already moving forward, try these three ingredients on for size.

    Mentioned in this episode:

    1.  Introducing Reinvention Rebels - This was my first episode back in Season 1 when I shared a taste of how I ended up hosting the podcast - my inspiration and some fun facts about me that led me here.

    2. Reinventing My 50s: Self-Reflection & Silence: How I Uncovered My Purpose at 54 - Learn about how I've learned to live on purpose and lean into what I'm meant to do. I know it's possible for you to do the same.

    3. Ready to Reinvent Yourself? Let's Get Curious! How to use Curiosity as a Catalyst for Realizing Your Dreams - in this episode, I share about the power of curiosity to help us uncover, follow and achieve our dreams.

  • Reinventing My 50s: Creating Community & Cultivating Joy with Tracie Momie

    What if turning 50 sparked a reinvention revolution inside of you that inspired action?

    And what if that inspired action led to impacting and elevating 50-something women everywhere, spreading joy, hope and inspiration?

    That's just what my guest, fierce and fabulous Tracie Momiem has done!

    This 51-year young Reinvention Rebel is all about creating community, cultivating joy and leaning into her creative genius. She is the founder of the Face of Fifty community on Instagram, showcasing how women are thriving in this new decade. She's also a five-time author, fresh off the release of her most recent book, You Had Me Fooled.

    What an empowering conversation we had about reinvention and new possibilities! I love what Tracie shares about:

    ✅ why it's so important to try out different things to uncover our passions
    ✅ how Tracie leaned in to find her own reinvention joy
    ✅ why you need to find the "just right fit" for you and your reinvention journey (not someone else's)
    ✅ how she reinvented herself as a book author in midlife, fueling her passion.
    ✅ why figuring out what's not for you is just as important as figuring out what is
    ✅ how she's inspiring women through her Face of Fifty Instagram platform
    ✅why a reinvention "team" is so important to your success
    ✅how we can set healthy boundaries and invite others along on our reinvention journey

    You will love our inspiring and engaging conversation about what can be possible as we age. As Tracie can attest, pretty much anything!

  • Reinventing 62: From Courtroom Counselor to Community Collaborator with Michelle St Jane

    Who do you know that thrives on new possibilities and isn't afraid to reinvent herself across decades? Someone who is passionate about community building and intergenerational collaboration?

    One of these amazing people is 62-year young Michelle St Jane. This fierce and fearless Reinvention Rebel has reimagined what it looks like to start fresh in her 50s and 60s while helping to make the world a better place.

    After running a successful, all-women law firm in Bermuda, Michelle was itching for more. At 50, she started a doctorate program, graduating at 55 with expertise in leadership and social responsibility. As a faculty member, she’s lectured at universities in the US, Canada and England  And she’s got a BIG vision - at 61 she started a podcast for global leaders as the host of Life & Leadership: A Conscious Journey.

    In her reinvented life Michelle thrives on building community to develop inspired and conscious leaders. But that's not all, she also continues to focus on her own conscious awakening and new ways to reinvent herself.

    I love what Michelle shares about:

    ✳️ Why we should pursue what we're passionate about and lights us up
    ✳️ How she's consciously chosen her reinvention path, listening to her calling to do more to contribute to the world
    ✳️ Why assessments can help us reinvent ourselves to shine
    ✳️ How we can honor the uniqueness of who are through our reinventions
    ✳️ Why our over-50 brain can propel us forward in new and exciting ways
    ✳️ How we can acknowledge and transform negative beliefs as a building block to our personal growth.

    Michelle is warm, funny, and full of reinvention wisdom. Her ideas will help you see new possibilities for what you can create in your own life!

  • Recipe for Midlife Reinvention: Launching a National Beauty Brand at 56 with Angel Cornelius

    What would be possible if a tiny idea cooked up in your kitchen at 56 led to a bold midlife reinvention playing out in your 60s?

    And what if that reinvention helped other midlife women to normalize and embrace aging, learning to love the skin they're in?

    Such is the reinvention journey of 61-year young Reinvention Rebel Angel Cornelius, a fierce and fabulous pro-age advocate. She is shining a light on the unique hair and skincare needs of midlife women. This health care administrator turned beauty entrepreneur is positively impacting the lives of midlife women through her national beauty brand, Maison 276. 

    We had a fabulous, fun and empowering convo about midlife reinvention, acknowledging that it's never too late to start fresh. Angel has gone for it in the most inspiring ways and I know you'll love her sage words about what is possible in midlife and beyond! (hint: anything)

    There are so many nuggets of wisdom here. I especially love what Angel shares about:

    • why it's so important to say yes and trust our gut
    • how we can all learn to do hard things. Just because it's hard doesn't mean we shouldn't do it
    • why finding the right people who are willing to help us is crucial on our reinvention path
    • how she launched and grew her company while holding down a full-time job
    • how she's helping midlife women to embrace their midlife bodies including changes to our hair and skincare needs
    • why it's important to embrace our silver-haired journey on our own terms, not someone else's
    • how she's giving midlife women a voice and platform to show up as their authentic selves and own midlife joyfully and unapologetically

    and so much more!

    I invite you to settle in for a great conversation that can't help but get you thinking about what's possible in your own life. You may not be ready to start a national beauty brand but I bet you can create something equally interesting and exciting in your own life.

  • My Midlife Reinvention in Spain: From Academia to the Oprah of Menopause with Lori Tharps

    What would be possible if you dreamed BIGGER and BOLDER than ever before?

    If you ignored the naysayers who discouraged you or said you couldn't do it?

    If you surrounded yourself with a positive tribe of supporters who normalized your midlife dreams and reminded you that they are, in fact, VERY possible?

    What you'd have is the midlife reinvention of Lori Tharps. 

    This amazing Reinvention Rebel traded in a stable career in academia to reimagine her life on another continent, tune into her creativity and become the self-proclaimed Oprah of menopause through her My Bloody Hell podcast.

    Lori's story is inspiring, empowering, and full of curiosity and adventure - just what a reinvention should be!

    I love what Lori shares about:

    • why it's never too late to reinvent yourself in midlife or beyond
    • how she and her family uncovered their "why" for moving from the US to Spain, uprooting their familiar life for a global experience
    • why taking forward action starts with one simple step in the desired direction 
    • how she normalized her dreams and started realizing they're attainable
    • how she cultivated her own personal cheer squad of "guides on the side" to support her dream
    • how reimagining her life shifted her perspective and opened up new possibilities she hadn't seen before  
    • how being open to reinvention led her to find her true calling 
    • how she's leaning into her creative muse to empower women on their menopause journey through her My Bloody Hell podcast

    and so much more!

    This episode is filled with wisdom, joy, encouragement, and hope. Lori reminds us that if she can reinvent herself at midlife and start fresh in a new country, we too can have a personal "do-over" and reinvent ourselves in a way that works for us.

    You can't help but think a little differently about what's possible in your own life after hearing Lori's reinvention journey!

  • How I Reinvented My 50s, 60s & 70s to Manifest My Dreams with Janet Luongo

    What would be possible if we reinvented ourselves in our 50s, 60s, AND 70s?

    According to 72-year young Reinvention Rebel Janet Luongo, just about anything!

    This energetic artist and activist should know. She's not only reinvented herself multiple times later in life, but she's also honed her reinvention skills over many years.

    Can you imagine seeing yourself exhibiting your artwork in Paris and then fearlessly making it happen?

    Yep, she did that.

    And writing a memoir about a year in your life at 18 and getting it published at 72? She did that too!

    Reinventing herself many times over has yielded impactful lessons in self-empowerment, resilience, courage, and a desire to contribute her time and talents to make the world a better place.

    The common denominator: she has learned how to manifest her dreams, turning her ideas into reality. She reminds us that we can do that too!

    I love what Janet shares about:

    - how she's manifested her desires in every decade
    - why she quit her job during a critical time to reinvent herself
    - how trusting her gut led to a host of new opportunities
    - why experimentation and self-discovery are important parts of the reinvention process
    - how we can rekindle our dreams, no matter how many years have gone by
    - why patience is key to reinventing ourselves (it almost never happens overnight!)
    - how she continues to reinvent herself at 72 in inspiring ways

    and so much more!

    This episode is so juicy, so joyful, so full of ideas to ignite your own thinking about what's possible as you age.

    We can reinvent ourselves at any age or any stage and Janet epitomizes just how possible this is. As Janet says, "you are worthy of all good things."

  • Camp Reinvention: Helping Women 50+ Change Their Careers by the End of the Year with Dana Hilmer

    What would be possible if you boldly reinvented yourself until you found the just-right fit, and then helped other women reinvent themselves in equally bold and inspiring ways?

    What if your work as a reinvention coach not only helped women 50+ see new possibilities but also helped turn ageism in the workplace on its head?

    Such is the work of 56-year young Reinvention Rebel Dana Hilmer.  Dana is no stranger to reinvention, having done the reinvention dance many times. From corporate marketing executive to successful published author (with three young kids, no less) and many others in between. But when she discovered the power and grace of coaching, she knew she had found her just-right reinvention. 

    Now's she's on a mission to help midlife women 50+ reinvent themselves and find their career mojo through her Camp Reinvention program with fellow coach Wendy Perrotti. 

    Such a great conversation with this kindred spirit, leaning into our shared passion for inspiring women to look beyond pre-set boundaries and embrace so much more.

    I love what Dana shares about: 

    • how you can use your age as an asset in your career
    • why you need to pursue your own definition of success, not someone else's
    • how your reinvention can be as big or small as you want
    • why it's important to surround yourself with people on a similar reinvention journey, not go it alone
    • how being vulnerable and tapping into moments when you feel truly alive is crucial to reinventing yourself
    • why it's important to start your reinvention before you're fully ready (even when scared!)
    • how her Camp Reinvention program is helping women transform their careers in profound and kickass ways!

    And this is just scratching the surface! This episode is rich with Dana's wisdom, inspiration, and insights. Our conversation can't help but motivate you to consider your own reinvention journey.

    What can your midlife reinvention look like & how will you start?

  • Accelerate Your Reinvention Journey with Commitment, Purpose & Passion

    What would be possible if you gave yourself permission to fully focus on your reinvention journey?

    Unlimited reinvention possibilities, that's what! 

    You can do, create, and be anything you like when you commit to seeing your reinvention journey through.

    The truth is that reinventing yourself doesn't happen overnight. It takes time and commitment. It takes prioritizing your self-growth and self-care over other things competing for your attention.

    It acknowledges that your hopes and dreams deserve your focus.

    It means you are amazing and worth the investment!

    You can accelerate your reinvention journey further and faster when you understand that reinventing yourself is more than a list of tasks to cross off a list. It's also about aligning with your purpose and passions. Get that trifecta working and anything is possible!

    I can't wait for you to listen to this episode and up your commitment to your own reinvention path. I share how I:

    • gave myself permission to focus on my reinvention journey (aka be happy!)
    • ditched people-pleasing to focus on my dreams
    • learned to say no to others in order to say yes to me
    • made my reinvention journey a priority, not a "someday" task
    • tuned into my purpose and passion as reinvention catalysts

  • How I Reinvented 61: Pivots & New Possibilities with Kim Boudreau Smith

    How does it feel when you tune into your bold voice and let her roar?

    For many women, finding our bold voice takes time. We've been told to play nice and keep her under wraps.

    Finding our authentic self, from which our bold voice emanates, is no small task. It takes time, patience, and courage.

    But when we do - pure magic!

    61-year young Reinvention Rebel Kim Boudreau Smith knows a lot about finding that bold voice and inviting her out to play. She's reinvented herself many times, each time strengthening her voice along the way. That led to a host of new and exciting possibilities.

    We had the best conversation about her reinvention journey and the many lessons she's learned along the way.

    I love what she shares about:

    • how she woke up and reclaimed her life after falling asleep at the wheel
    • how she learned to pivot and reinvent herself during the pandemic
    • why society needs to embrace women being their true selves
    • how she stopped faking it and kicked perfectionism to the curb
    • how being more authentic with ourselves and others yields amazing growth
    • why asking for help is key to jumpstarting our personal growth
    • how Kim practices "soul care" and you can too

    And so much more fierce wisdom!

    You can't help but be inspired by our conversation and challenge yourself to think differently (and bigger!) and about your own life.

    No matter our age, we can all tune in, get to know ourselves better, and uncover our bold voice.

    How will you pivot and reinvent yourself to create new possibilities?
