What if aging could feel expansive instead of limiting? What if breaking free from alcohol in midlife wasn’t a crisis—but a launchpad?
In this episode, Ruby Williams and Susan Larkin sit down with their guest the fiercely wise and funny Debi Talbert—a former flight attendant turned alcohol-free mindset and longevity coach—who’s helping women age with purpose, power, and pleasure.

Debi gets real about her own drinking story, the “invisible middle years,” and how we can flip outdated narratives on aging. She shares her signature tools—the Oxygen Mask Framework and Aging Flip Flight Plan—to help you rewire limiting beliefs, ditch shame, and finally feel lit from the inside out.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in habits you didn’t choose or wondered, "Is it too late to reinvent myself?"—this conversation is your permission slip to change everything.
