Turn Your Midlife Setback Into Your Set-Up with Amy Shoenthal
from A Certain Age · host Katie Fogarty
You know the feeling: midlife hands you a hard reset—the layoff, the diagnosis, the divorce you didn't see coming. Amy Shoenthal, journalist and bestselling author of "The Setback Cycle," spent years studying how the most resilient women bounce back to develop a framework anyone can use—and it's nothing like the "stay positive" advice you've heard before. We also dig into the AI anxiety so many of us are feeling right now, and how the same setback thinking applies to navigating a career that suddenly feels less certain. Amy has walked the talk: she turned her own layoff into a business so successful she now coaches teams at major companies, and she's now bringing that same thinking into intimate salons packed with women rewriting their next chapter. This one will change how you think about your own setbacks. Age boldly, beauties!
