À propos de cet audio

 This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

You know that feeling when you hit your forties and suddenly everything feels different? Maybe you’ve spent years building a career, raising a family, or simply getting through the day, but deep down, there’s a quiet voice saying, “Is this all there is?” If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. So many women over forty are discovering that this stage of life isn’t about winding down—it’s about waking up to new passions and possibilities.

Take Susan Lister Locke, for example. She spent years running a sportswear store on Nantucket, but when the real estate market crashed in 2008, she didn’t see it as an end. At 67, she pivoted to jewelry making, something she’d always loved but never pursued. By 69, she opened her own shop overlooking the Nantucket waterfront, turning her creativity into a thriving business. Her story reminds us that reinvention isn’t about starting from scratch—it’s about listening to what’s been inside you all along.

Then there’s Shinde, who moved to Mumbai after her bachelor’s degree, working as a costume design assistant. Years later, a trip to Malaysia sparked her curiosity about horticulture. Back home, she revived her family’s nearly abandoned nursery, Ashokvatika Nursery, and now she’s exploring everything from sensory gardens to using AI in plant care. She says her 40s have become an exploration of creativity and compassion, and she’s no longer in a rush to achieve or prove anything. Her journey shows that curiosity can be your compass at any age.

Rochelle Potkar, an award-winning author and poet, found her stride in her 40s too. She began calling herself a “journeywoman,” embracing the long, winding road of life with perspective and patience. She’s now pitching movie and TV scripts, no longer deflated by rejections or small defeats. For Rochelle, life feels less like a jigsaw puzzle and more like a patchwork quilt—each piece adding to a richer, more vibrant whole.

These women prove that reinvention isn’t about age or timing. It’s about courage, curiosity, and the willingness to listen to your own voice. Whether it’s starting a new business, exploring a creative passion, or simply dedicating time to what brings you joy, your 40s can be the beginning of your most authentic chapter.
