Transitioning at Midlife—replay

What does it mean to finally live as your true self—after decades of hiding? In this powerful episode of Awaken Your Wise Woman, host Elizabeth Cush welcomes Wendy Cole, a transgender woman who transitioned at the age of 67. Wendy shares her deeply personal journey, from knowing she was a girl at a young age to navigating a lifetime of societal expectations and denial. Together, they explore the emotional and spiritual impact of living inauthentically, the inner strength required to claim your truth later in life, and the healing that comes from being seen and accepted as you are. The conversation goes beyond gender to touch on universal themes of identity, courage, and transformation. Wendy speaks candidly about the psychological toll of suppressing her truth, the joy and freedom of transition, and the importance of safe, supportive communities. Elizabeth and Wendy also discuss the myths and misunderstandings around being transgender, the critical difference between gender identity and expression, and why it’s never too late to make life-affirming change. This episode is a moving reminder that authenticity is always worth the risk—and that becoming who you truly are is an act of profound liberation.   You can find the full show notes and resources here- https://www.elizabethcushcoaching.com/podcast-awaken-your-wise-woman-all/transitioning-at-midlife Support the showI hope you enjoyed the show!You can also follow me here:InstagramYouTubeFacebook
