 This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

Welcome to Women Over 40, where we celebrate the fierce power of midlife reinvention. I'm your host, and today we're diving straight into pursuing new passions after 40—because sister, this is your time to bloom brighter than ever.

Picture this: you're in your 40s, life's thrown its curveballs—careers, kids, maybe a divorce or two—and suddenly, that quiet voice inside whispers, "What if?" That's exactly what happened to Shinde from India, as shared in The Better India. After decades grinding in costume design in Mumbai, facing family pressure to settle down, she hit 40 feeling her curiosity dim. But on a trip to Malaysia, a horticulture exhibit lit her up. She rebooted her family's abandoned nursery, Ashokvatika Nursery, experimenting with houseplants in coconut shells, inspired by Japanese YouTube tutorials. Now, she's building sensory gardens, diving into AI for plant care, and networking boldly in business collectives. "My 40s are an exploration of creativity and compassion," she says. No rush, just nurturing herself like her plants. Shinde proves it: curiosity is your compass, and independence fuels the fire.

Then there's Rochelle Potkar, the award-winning author and poet from the same stories. In her 40s, she shed short-term anxieties, embracing what she calls her "macro-journey" as a journeywoman of words. After books and performances, she's pitching movie and TV scripts with gusto, turning rejections into fuel. Her life? Less jigsaw puzzle, more patchwork quilt—pieced from real failures and growth. Drawing from psychologist Edward Higgins' ideas, she lives in her actual self now, free from chasing an ideal.

These aren't rarities. Toni Morrison penned her first novel at 40, launching a Nobel Prize legacy. Vera Wang ditched figure skating and editing at 40 to become the bridal gown queen. Ariana Huffington founded The Huffington Post at 55. Julia Child mastered French cooking and debuted on TV at 50. As Keri from Elevate with Keri shares, these late bloomers show age is your springboard.

So, how do you start? Natalie from IT Girl University lays out a plan: realign your identity first—process your past with therapy like Grow Therapy. Upgrade your image—clean nails, fitted clothes—as strategy, not vanity. Build three non-negotiables: fuel your body, feed your mind, reset your space. Set systems with timers and grocery lists to make success effortless. Say no to what dims you, protect your brand like a CEO.

Listeners, you're not starting over—you're leveling up. Chase that passion, whether it's writing, plants, or screenplays. Your 40s are for unapologetic pursuit.
