This week, Rachel sits down with Jess, an attorney from New Mexico and the managing partner of a women-led law firm who’s rewriting what fulfillment looks like at 50. For two decades, she’s guided clients through divorce with clarity and compassion—while quietly defying the script herself.

Jess shares how growing up in a generation where women couldn’t even get their own credit cards shaped her fierce independence, and how she built a thriving practice without apology or a safety net.

They dive into:
 - Setting boundaries (and why “no” is a full sentence)
 - The myth that a partner is the only solution
 - How singlehood sharpens perspective—in the courtroom and in life

Reclaiming confidence and competence, one decision at a time

If you’ve ever been asked “what’s the catch?” for simply loving your life as it is, this conversation will hit home.

Tune in and remember: you are allowed to design a life that adds to you—right now.
