  • Reinvention After 40: Igniting Your Curiosity, One Bold Step at a Time
    2025/06/01
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    Welcome to Women Over 40and, the space where we celebrate reinvention, resilience, and the brilliant new chapters women write after forty. I’m your host, and today, we’re diving right into how to reinvent yourself after 40—especially when it comes to boldly pursuing new passions.

    If you're listening, maybe you're at a crossroads—maybe the kids have left home, your career has plateaued, or you just feel something inside whispering for more. You’re not alone. Reinvention isn't just possible, it's happening all around us. For example, Susan Lister Locke grew up on the Rhode Island coast with dreams of becoming a fashion designer, but life took her into family business, marriage, and motherhood. It wasn’t until her fifties, after a divorce and the closure of the store she managed, that she sat down with nothing but a list and a deep sense of curiosity about what she really loved. That simple act of listing her likes, dislikes, talents, and needs led her to jewelry-making—a passion she first pursued just for herself. When people started wanting her pieces, Susan realized her hobby could be more. Today her jewelry is not just sold on Nantucket, but even in Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts, and she’s still learning—studying techniques in Italy and beyond.

    Reinvention after forty is rarely about making one giant leap. It’s about leaning into curiosity, ignoring those old labels—too late, too old, too set in my ways—and starting small but intentional. For some, it’s about taking classes in painting or coding. For others, it could be working with a coach, as one woman shared about her over-40 transformation: she didn’t just read self-help books; she immersed herself in learning, surrounding herself with people who helped her grow and break old patterns. She became her own best student and, in time, felt that pivotal shift from self-doubt to action.

    So, ask yourself: what have you always been curious about? Is there a skill, an art, a cause that tugs at you? The women who reinvent most successfully start by honoring that curiosity—taking a class, joining a group, volunteering, just dipping a toe. The secret is not waiting for permission. You give yourself permission.

    And yes, it can be scary. Changing direction after forty means facing the unknown, questioning old stories: that “second acts” are for the young, that certain doors are closed. But it’s not true. Some of the most inspiring women I know have started businesses, written books, even trained for new careers well into their forties, fifties, and beyond. As we’ve heard from Susan, and from countless others forging new paths after forty, the most important thing isn’t a destination. It’s the willingness to start, to allow your passions to guide you, and to rewrite your story on your own terms.

    This is Women Over 40and—here’s to every woman ready to say yes to her next act. Until next time, keep leaning into your passions and remember: your best chapter might be the one you write today.

  • Reinvention Roadmap: Navigating Your Fabulous 40s and Beyond
    2025/05/28
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    # "Women Over 40" Podcast - Episode 27: Reinventing Yourself After 40

    Hello and welcome to Women Over 40, where we celebrate the journey of rediscovery that comes with this powerful decade of life. I'm your host, Sarah, and today we're diving into something many of us face: reinventing ourselves and pursuing new passions after 40.

    The narrative that life's major achievements must happen in our 20s and 30s is simply false. In fact, our 40s can be the perfect launching pad for transformation. We have experience, confidence, connections, and wisdom that our younger selves could only dream of possessing.

    Take Susan Lister Locke's story. Approaching 50 after a divorce and her retail company going out of business, Susan didn't panic. Instead, she made lists: What do I like? What am I good at? What do I need? What do I want? This simple act of self-reflection led her to rediscover her artistic side. She began taking jewelry-making classes just for fun. Soon, people were admiring her pieces, and before she knew it, she was selling her creations in an upscale Nantucket shop and even Boston's Museum of Fine Arts, all while continuing to expand her skills by studying different techniques in Italy.

    The beauty of reinvention after 40 is that we're no longer trying to please everyone else. We know ourselves better. We understand what brings us joy. And importantly, we've developed the resilience to weather the inevitable storms of change.

    Many women find that their second acts are more aligned with their authentic selves. Perhaps you've spent decades in corporate finance but always dreamed of opening a bakery. Or maybe you've raised children and now want to pursue that degree you postponed. The specific passion isn't what matters – it's giving yourself permission to pursue it that counts.

    What makes reinvention after 40 different is that we bring our whole selves to it – all our previous experiences, skills, and relationships become valuable assets in our new endeavors. We're not starting from zero; we're building on a foundation we've already established.

    If you're feeling that pull toward something new, start small. Take a class. Have coffee with someone in your desired field. Read books. Join online communities. The path to reinvention doesn't have to be a dramatic leap – it can be a series of small, intentional steps.

    Remember that it's never too late to create a life that excites you. Our 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond can be our most creative, productive, and fulfilling years. So ask yourself: What would I do if I weren't afraid? What would bring me joy? What legacy do I want to create?

    Your reinvention journey is uniquely yours. Trust that the wisdom you've gained over four decades will guide you toward what's next. You have everything you need to begin. The only question is: what are you waiting for?

  • Reigniting Your Spark: Embracing Reinvention After 40
    2025/05/25
    This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

    Welcome to Women Over 40, the podcast where we break limits, rewrite narratives, and champion the power of reinvention. I’m thrilled you’re here with me today because we’re about to dive headfirst into a subject that touches so many of us: reinventing yourself after 40 and pursuing new passions.

    Let’s cut right to it. At this stage of life, many of us have checked the boxes. Careers built, families grown, routines established. But maybe, like me, you’ve felt that nudge—an unshakable curiosity or itch for something more. Maybe you’re ready to swap the script, unleash a hidden interest, or even chart a totally new course.

    Take Susan Lister Locke as an example. Susan spent decades managing her family’s specialty sportswear store in Nantucket, raising kids, and doing all the things that were expected of her generation. But approaching 50, she faced major change: her marriage ended, and her retail job disappeared. Did she shrink back? Absolutely not. Susan started making lists, not of jobs, but of what truly excited her. That self-inquiry led her to real estate and unlocked her long-dormant artistic side. She took jewelry-making classes for fun, and before long, her pieces were being sold privately, featured in an upscale shop on Nantucket, and even at Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts. Reinvention isn’t just about what you do. It’s about who you allow yourself to become.

    Maybe your journey isn’t about creating jewelry or launching a business. It could be returning to school, getting fit, writing a book, learning to paint, mastering a language—the options are as unique as you are. What matters is rekindling that spark, that drive to expand, connect, and evolve. Reinvention means listening to what calls to you now, not what used to or what you think you should want.

    Of course, starting over takes courage. You might feel stuck—held back by old beliefs, self-judgment, or the ever-persistent label of being “too late.” But let’s challenge that right now. I know women who have leaned into coaching, not just reading books or dreaming, but actively immersing themselves in self-discovery and transformation. It’s about small steps, curiosity, and reaching out to those who inspire you. Sometimes, one conversation or new encounter can spark a 90-day transformation that changes everything.

    If you’re hesitating, remember: the world is full of women who found their paths in their 40s, 50s, and beyond, women who tapped into strength, reinvention, and new purpose when others might have told them to slow down. This era isn’t the end of the story. It’s the beginning of chapter two—and perhaps the most thrilling one yet.

    So today, let yourself ask: What do I love? What excites me now? What’s that one small step I can take this week? Because truly, it’s never too late to pursue your next passion. Reinvention is not only possible—it’s powerful.
