Cathy Derksen on Leadership, Reinvention After 50, and Empowering Midlife Women

Host Michele Kawamoto Perry interviews Cathy Derksen, founder of Inspired Tenacity, to explore her remarkable journey from medical genetics and financial planning to becoming a publisher, international speaker, and 23-time #1 bestselling author. Cathy shares how a midlife reinvention led her to discover the power of authorship and community as catalysts for leadership, visibility, and purpose. In this conversation, they discuss leading without a title, trusting intuition when a culture no longer fits, and how storytelling can open doors to credibility, impact, and legacy. Cathy also shares how her collaborative book projects and community have helped more than 200 women step into authorship, amplify their voices, and lead boldly in the next chapter of their lives.
