This is the first special mini-series within the "This Woman Can" podcast. and I'm excited to share the inspiration behind this series.

In my role as an executive coach, I've had the privilege of working with professional Black women over 50, witnessing their incredible journeys in the world of leadership and life.

Midlife is a time of profound transformation, where life experiences converge with aspirations, and the pursuit of success takes on new dimensions. It's a phase where we reevaluate our goals, redefine our purpose, and often, rediscover the sheer joy of living.

Each mini series will focus on a core challenge I see these women face as they embark on discovering who they are at this pivotal stage of life.

Throughout this series, we'll dive into their stories, gain insights from their experiences, and extract practical wisdom that can empower us all.

Together, we will explore how to redefine success, overcome challenges, and fully embrace the richness that midlife has to offer.

Whether you're a seasoned professional, an aspiring leader, or simply someone seeking inspiration in the ever-evolving journey of life, this mini-series is here to support you.
