Podcast guesting & speaking topics include:

1. Deprogramming from Patriarchy: Reclaiming Your Inner Authority
Many midlife women are waking up to the ways patriarchy has shaped their self-worth, leadership style, and inner voice. In this episode, I’ll explore how to recognize and release those old narratives—and reclaim inner authority rooted in wisdom, compassion, and truth.

2. Leading Without Apology: Shedding the ‘Be Nice’ Conditioning
Midlife is the perfect time to stop apologizing for being powerful. I’ll talk about how the pressure to be nice, agreeable, and small has held women back—and how releasing these patterns opens the door to unapologetic, heart-centered leadership.

3. The Unlearning Years: How Midlife Sets Us Free
If the first half of life is about learning the rules, midlife is about unlearning them. I’ll share stories and insights on how women are letting go of perfectionism, people-pleasing, and patriarchal programming to create lives and careers on their own terms.

4. From Good Girl to Wise Woman: A Midlife Leadership Shift
The ‘good girl’ was rewarded in our early years—but she can’t lead us into the future. I’ll guide your audience through the transition from seeking approval to trusting inner wisdom, and why that shift is essential for empowered leadership in midlife.
