  • Rewriting the Rules of Ageing Author Interview with Lyndsey Simpson

    What if the second half of your life could be your best half?


    In this episode, I sit down with Lyndsey Simpson - CEO and Founder of 55/Redefined and author of the brand new book The Age Rebellion: Supercharge the Second Half of Your Life, to talk about why it's time to ditch outdated ideas about retirement and start designing a life you actually want to live.


    We dig into what it really means to find purpose beyond 50, why your value only grows with age, and how to turn the things you've always wanted to do into an actionable plan - no matter where you're starting from.


    Whether you're mid-career, approaching a transition, or just quietly wondering "what's next?" - this one's for you.


    🎧 Listen now and join the Age Rebellion.
