What if your best years are still ahead of you? Society often tells women that aging means becoming invisible. Lisa Kirbie believes the opposite. After turning 50, navigating divorce, launching a new business, moving cities just before the pandemic, and becoming a grandmother, Lisa discovered a new level of confidence, freedom, and purpose. In this conversation, she shares why starting over can be one of the greatest opportunities of your life, why women become bolder with age, and what it really means to stop living for other people's expectations. We also talk about motherhood, building a career after setbacks, navigating public criticism, creating supportive communities for women, and finding the courage to keep moving forward when life doesn't go according to plan.
