 This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

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

Picture this: you're in your 40s, life's thrown curveballs like career ruts, empty nests, or nagging doubts, but instead of shrinking, you rise. Take Shinde from India, as shared in The Better India. In her 40s, defying family pressure to settle down, she rebooted her curiosity by reviving her cousin's abandoned nursery in Mumbai. Sitting among wilting plants with a notebook, she experimented with houseplants in coconut shells, inspired by a Malaysia horticulture exhibit. Now, her Ashokvatika Nursery thrives with sensory gardens and AI-driven plant care. Shinde says, “I decided my 40s would be an exploration of creativity and compassion. I am happily dedicated to myself, just like my plants.” Her story screams it: curiosity is your compass.

Or look at Rochelle Potkar, the award-winning author and poet from Mumbai. In her 40s, she shed short-term anxieties to become a journeywoman of words, pitching movie and TV scripts with gusto. No more fear of rejection—she's unfurling her wild self playfully, proving your 40s are for bold leaps into screenwriting or whatever calls your soul.

These aren't rarities. Vera Wang launched her iconic bridal gown empire at 40, after figure skating and editing. Julia Child mastered French cooking and debuted The French Chef at 50. Even J.K. Rowling, hitting her stride in her 40s, turned welfare struggles into Harry Potter magic. As Heyday Coaching highlights, women before the boomers pioneered this—professors turning mentors, diarists birthing new paths.

So, how do you start? Natalie from IT Girl University lays out a plan: realign your identity through therapy like Grow Therapy, upgrade your style as strategy, build three weekly non-negotiables—one for body, mind, space—and set fierce boundaries. No performative glow-ups; execute with systems that carry you when tired.

Listeners, your 40s aren't a crisis—they're a catalyst. Ditch the shoulds for your actual self, as psychologist Edward Higgins notes. Chase passions that light you up: a nursery, scripts, gowns, or your hidden dream. You've survived enough to know what matters. Nurture it like Shinde's plants.
