 This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

Welcome to Women Over 40, the podcast where we celebrate bold reinvention and the power of women claiming new chapters. Today, we’re getting right into it: reinventing yourself after 40 and pursuing new passions. Whether your 40th birthday just passed, or you’re decades beyond, this is your time to be unapologetically you.

So many of us outgrow roles and routines that once defined us. Maybe you’ve been waking up, commuting, watching TV, and repeating the cycle, feeling like you’re just going through the motions. You’re successful on paper, but there’s this ache for more—a calling for fulfillment, connection, and excitement. Reinvention isn’t just a dream, it’s an invitation. According to Love Quest Coaching, the first step is clarity: ask yourself what life excites you, then start living it immediately. I know that sounds intense, but staying comfortable can be a growth killer. As Grant Cardone suggests, set a goal so big it keeps you busy for five lifetimes.

Let’s hear from women who did just that. Susan Lister Locke, who spent years managing retail stores on Nantucket, faced a career crossroads in her late 40s after divorce and a company shutdown. Locke made lists—what she liked, what she was good at—and decided to both revive her real estate license and take jewelry-making classes for fun. Those small steps led her to selling pieces in shops and museums, fully embracing her artistry. Sometimes finding your passion means dusting off old interests and carving new space for them.

Diane Bruno spent her career in corporate communications but lacked fulfillment, until her mother’s passing introduced her to funeral service. Despite her initial doubts, Bruno changed industries and found remarkable purpose helping families through loss. Inspiration can come from unlikely places, sometimes at life’s hardest moments.

Terri Bryant, a renowned makeup artist, found herself struggling with precision and was later diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. Instead of stepping back, Bryant designed makeup tools to keep herself working—and realized these innovations could help thousands. By founding Guide Beauty and collaborating with Selma Blair, she’s shown that embracing challenges is a catalyst for true reinvention.

History is full of women who made major pivots after 40: Toni Morrison wrote her first novel at 40, Vera Wang started designing dresses close to age 40, and Ariana Huffington launched HuffPost at 55. Keri from Elevate with Keri reminds us that age can be a springboard for transformation and success, not a deadline.

So how do you start? Get uncomfortable. Reject overthinking. Begin small—take that art class, start networking in your dream field, get a coach, actually show up for yourself. Whether it’s leaving a job, starting a business, ending or beginning a relationship, claiming solo adventures, or embracing community, use discomfort as your launch pad.

You deserve more than “comfortable.” You were born to thrive. Reinvention is a daily practice—ask yourself what excites you each day, and pursue it fiercely.
