The Right-Sized Life with Amy Schmidt

In today's episode you will meet Ali Gorman, and find out exactly what #NTTF means.
Mastering the art of reinvention, Ali has taken on new challenges along her journey - and has recently taken on the adventure of launching an app, which launched because  of a conversation with friends. 

In this episode we talk about:

• Alignment and what that looks like for 2023
• The power of friends being your pillars
• Starting something tech without a tech background
• Advice I'd give my younger self

Ali Gorman is the founder of the new TruFaves app. This is her third career reinvention. She spent more than 15 years working as a TV news reporter and also served four years in the U.S. Navy as a nurse corps officer.  

You can learn more and download the app at www.trufaves.com

We are ever-evolving and as women of a certain age - things change. So often there are certain things we experience that we don't talk about. They may be considered #taboo - but not anymore. In today's episode, Meet Geri DiPiano - CEO and Founder of FemmePharma. Geri is not only a thought-leader around women's health, but an innovator - and today we dig into a topic that so many women experience and we don't talk about. Geri has created a company that is targeted at women's health - and helping support something so many experience, vaginal dryness.

FemmePharma is an innovated health and wellness company that has been reinventing women’s healthcare for more than 20 years. FemmePharma’s mission is to provide women with products they can feel confident about – the Mia Vita Personal Lubricant & Moisturizer is FDA-cleared, and all our products are made with pharmaceutical-grade ingredients. They are the highest quality available without needing a prescription.

In today's episode: meet Kim and Mike Barnes, Founders of the FB community Parenting Aging Parents.

When you’re helping your aging parents there can be so much confusion, so many unknowns, so much lingo – it’s hard to even know what to “google” for answers!

Mike’s mom has Alzheimer’s, his dad is in his 80s and Kim’s mom is also in her 80s. It’s a journey we know others are going through, as well, so they created a community to provide access to experts, share resources and build a community so that we know the right questions to ask, what services and assistance are available and how to find them.

You can find them here: https://parentingagingparents.com/ to get started finding your support system.

Surround Yourself With Greatness Series - I would love for you to meet Katie Fogarty: A podcast dynamo, LinkedIn guru and friend - on a mission to redefine aging by AGING OUT LOUD!

In today's episode I chat with Katie Fogarty, as we dig into what it means to age boldly.
Katie is the host of The Certain Age Podcast and recently launched an IG community called AGE OUT LOUD  that spotlights redefining aging.

Katie and I share a lot of similarities, and both launched our shows the year we turned 50.  She is on a mission to shift the narrative that aging makes you irrelevant.

In this episode we talk about all things aging - why she's doing what's she doing. The challenges we face at midlife and beyond and how to continue living forward with purpose and how we learn from every episode and guest we meet along the way.

Make sure to check out A Certain Age Podcast and follow along and become part of her IG Community AGE OUT LOUD.

In today's episode of the Fearlessly Facing Fifty podcast, and as I continue the Surround Yourself With Greatness Series, I am so pleased to have an incredible guest. Rob Gaduet, from the Cajun Navy Ground Force. 

Volunteers are often doing the work to help their neighbors pick up the pieces and rebuild. One of those organizations is the Cajun Navy. The group got its start after Hurricane Katrina in 2005 when boat owners stepped up to help rescue people. Since then, Cajun Navy volunteers have become a regular presence whenever a natural disaster strikes and are often the first on the scene.

One of those volunteers is Rob Gaudet. He’s from the Cajun Navy Ground Force in Louisiana and is the founder and director of the Cajun Navy Foundation. Rob has been on the road for weeks helping in the wake of Hurricane Ian. Today, he’s sharing what he’s seeing now - 69 days past landfall, and stories of how they're making an impact and offering help when it is so needed.
