First - YOU WILL BE OK! Here are some of the things I'm talking about: The three types of divorce and their pros and cons. Why mediation may not work for everyone. How collaborative divorce can be a less adversarial option. The emotional toll and financial cost of litigation. Strategies for handling custody arrangements and co-parenting challenges. The importance of thinking practically about your financial future, including getting help from a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA).

I so enjoyed speaking with author Bernadette Catalana that I invited her back to speak more about her book Daughter Lessons. Since she wrote the book, her mom has died and that changed the way she's viewed her relationship, as many of us do when we lose our mother. We talked about our relationships with our own daughters and how they've been shaped by the relationships we had with our mothers. This is an episode every woman can relate to. You can grab Bernadette's book on Amazon here . And, you can grab my book, Daily Inspirations For Midlife Women: A Guide to Peace, Joy, Confidence, and Abundance here .…

Kate Champion is a therapist and best-selling author of Never Too Late: Inspiration, Motivationaand Sage Advice from 7 Later-in-Life Athletes and Your Are Limitless; Anxiety, Grief, Trauma, Addiction: 7 Inspiring Stories of Hope & Healing.

Some of the things we discussed were: Healing in nature - letting go of grief on the trail and the powerful connection that happens when you share stories with other women. How our grief can't be dismissed or "cured" but rather integrated into our lives. What friends can do to support someone who has experienced a death.

Do you need some strategies to get past fear in order to achieve your goals? Grab my free guide Five Steps to Release Fear and Live Boldly. Alison Young is an expert at reinvention. She went from being the Principal Flutist with the Boston Symphony to a syndicated radio host at American Public Media and then, after a cancer diagnosis, to being a backpacker in her early 50's and walking 12,000 miles on six continents! In fact, she walked the entire length of New Zealand. Like Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild, Alison also hiked the Pacific Crest Trail. Doing this alone, in her 50's is hard enough but she also had the beginnings of debilitating arthritis. Alison's story of the dangers along the trail as well as the exhiliration and life lessons is powerful. We also discussed: - The importance of being curious rather than certain. - How and why to quit strategically. - Why she chose to hike New Zealand. Alison has a podcast and leads some amazing retreats. You can learn more about her on her site Hike Like a Woman.

Female entrepreneurs deal with a TON of s&%t! And too often they don't have people to talk to about it to and get support. Enter BOSSY. BOSSY is a networking group founded in 2014 by Kelly Metras and Kelly Bush. They started the group BOSSY after finding that as business owners, they lacked peers to discuss management and operation issues, issues with employees, marketing, legal requirements and standards, and more. Having few people to relate to the stressors of owning and running a business, especially as women, Kelly and Kelly set off to create a safe space for women to gather, for free, to learn from one another, make friends, vent, ask questions, share experiences and more. BOSSY has organically grown to include hundreds of remarkable, driven, and passionate women business owners in Rochester, NY Kelly, Kelly, and I had a great conversation. Some of the things we discussed: The one word women never want to call themselves. How being a midlife woman makes us better entrepreneurs. How to navigate working with your husband. How to figure out what works for you in balancing work/life. You can learn more about Kelly, Kelly and BOSSY here . Follow them on Instagram here . Connect on Facebook here .…

Outwardly, Jen Berlingo had the perfect life - a beautiful home and family and a great career. She had established a family, career, and persona that fulfilled social, familial, and cultural expectations. When she entered her forties, she realized that something didn't feel right. She reframed the midlife transition as a midlife emergence® to make meaning of her own transformation during this time of life when she dared to reveal the raw, sometimes inconvenient truth of who she was. Today, through her own experiences, as well as decades of working as a psychotherapist and coach with those facing similar choices, Jen now midwifes the modern woman through her unique, non-linear midlife passage. Her book Midlife Emergence:Free Your Inner Fire is part personal memoir, part coaching manual that helps women explore their true desires in midlife, whatever they are. It's an empowering and transformative book for every woman - I literally couldn't put it down! Some of the things we discussed: - The decision to open her marriage and practice ethical non-monogamy. - How, as women, we give our power away. - The myth of a "broken family." - Her daughter's experience in a blended family with a queer mom. - How we set ourselves on fire to keep others warm.
