]]> Talk to Kim

In this heartfelt and eye-opening episode, Kim sits down with Jenna Udenberg—accessibility educator, nonprofit founder, author, and lifelong advocate—to explore what it truly means to navigate life, identity, and purpose in midlife while living with a disability.

Jenna shares her powerful story of being diagnosed with juvenile arthritis at age seven, transitioning into life in a wheelchair, and ultimately transforming personal challenges into a mission-driven life of advocacy and education.

From losing her long-time teaching career during COVID to building a nonprofit that’s changing conversations around accessibility, Jenna’s journey is one of resilience, reinvention, and courage.

 Key Takeaways

  • Midlife is not an ending—it’s a powerful pivot point.
  • Accessibility benefits everyone.
  • Advocacy starts with awareness.
  • There is strength in using your voice.

Jenna Udenberg is an accessibility educator, speaker, and founder of the nonprofit Above & Beyond With U, where she works with organizations, businesses, and communities to create more inclusive environments.

She is also the author of her memoir Within My Spokes and a columnist sharing her perspective as a woman living fully and boldly with disability.

You can connect with Jenna through her website aboveandbeyondwithu.org or on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.

This week, Kim talks with Tina Coleman—author, speaker, and reinvention guide—about moving from Iowa to Mexico, getting sober after deep loss, and using solo travel as a catalyst for healing and courage. 

Tina shares how writing her book, “50 Fabulous and F-able,” grew from her fear of turning 50 into a roadmap for midlife reinvention, covering confidence, practical planning (wills/life insurance), menopause support, and self-care. 

She explains why women shouldn’t wait for others to travel, how small steps build bravery, and her vision for international sanctuaries where midlife women can feel safe, supported, and empowered.

Emily elaborates on the different modalities offered at her center, the importance of calming the nervous system for overall wellness, and her future plans to specialize in hormone management and women's health. 

The episode emphasizes the importance of self-care, adaptability, and the continual learning process in personal and professional growth.

In this episode, Kim talks with Rose Amante Yodzio, a former elementary school teacher turned integrative nutrition and health coach. Rose made this courageous career transition after facing her own health challenges, including digestive issues and a diagnosis of celiac disease. 

Listen and learn more about the symptoms of peri-menopause, such as overwhelm, anxiety, and lack of motivation, which many women incorrectly attribute to aging. 

Along with learning the symptoms of peri-menopause, Rose discusses:

  • the importance of balancing hormones
  • the role of nutrition and lifestyle changes in managing these symptoms.  
  • the crucial need for adequate protein intake, managing stress, and careful monitoring of blood sugar levels. 
  • the potential benefits and drawbacks of treatments like hormone replacement therapy and GLP-1 agonists. 

Rose encourages women to advocate for their health and not accept peri-menopause symptoms as inevitable.


You can find the free resource that Rose talked about to help you as you navigate midlife hormonal changes. To learn more about Rose, you can find her on Instagram @rose.amonte.yodzio.

Ande Lyons is on a mission which can be summed up in the title of her podcast: Don't Be Caged by Your Age.  Ande's background in business as a 4x business founder and global startup mentor eventually led her to her current role as a podcast creator and host of a monthly podcast gathering. She saw many examples of ageism in the business world and found a way at age 66 to nervously proclaim her age. She wanted to show the world that you can still be a vibrant, connected and contributing person at this age. 

Ande wants to bring examples of ageism out in the light so they can be changed and help others learn to live a fantastic life. She even calls out Kim about a familiar phrase that actually is ageist. How many times have you said "age is just a number?" Make sure you listen to learn why that is not a phrase we should be saying.

Debbie Weiss is a speaker, author and course creator who found herself placed in a caregiving role at 17 years old when her father had a massive stroke. That wasn't the end of her caregiver roles however, as she also experienced a special needs child and her husband who needed care until he passed away. Eventually she figured out that she had lost herself. 

She speaks with Kim about her feelings of being burdened but having an "aha" moment when she turned 50 that set her on a path to self-discovery and purpose. A weekend with her friends also sparked a reminder of what she was like as a younger woman. 

Debbie talks about learning to overcome a lifelong weight problem and learning to love public speaking as she found ways to take new chances even when she was scared to try.  She offers a new way to think about self-care as well-it's not just bubble baths or a glass of wine. 

Debbie shares her messages through her books: On Second Thought, Maybe I Can, and The Sprinkle Effect and her WEBSITE.

She also hosts a podcast called Maybe I Can.

Arlene Cohen Miller is an attorney who now helps others through her work-life balance coaching and transformational mentoring. She shares her journey and the tools she uses to live her best life. Arlene shares her reasons for leaving her marriage and how she had to grow up very quickly in her career and life.

She talks about becoming aware of the tools we already have to nurture ourselves as much as we nurture others. She became aware of this need at a young age when she saw her own mother giving so much to her kids that she had to be told to get herself some new clothes. 

One of the "aha" moments that she shares is taking the idea of choosing gratitude aspect a step further than just listing out what you are thankful for. Taking the time to actually feel what you are grateful for is much more meaningful and gives you a strong foundation to move forward.

Anne Poirier talks with Kim this week about her journey with an eating disorder, her career switch after 30 years and ways to help other women realize that self-worth lies not in how they look but for who they are. So many of us listen to that inner voice that tells us we are not good enough or beautiful enough and Anne wants us all to know we are all beautifully different and unique.

She also talks with Kim about the importance of helping young girls receive these messages and she has written a book called "Not A Fat Annie" that you can get on Amazon.

Anne has a free gift for you called Unlocking Body Neutrality: Your Guide to Self-Acceptance, More Confidence and Inner Peace which you can get by sending a message to Anne at anne@thebodyjoyful.com. Make sure you mention that you heard about it on this podcast.

To learn more about tools to help you pause that inner negative voice, check out Anne's website HERE.

Susan Friedland belongs to the "horse crazy girl" club and found herself reading all the horse books she could get her hands on as a child.

Her book is called Marguerite, Misty & Me and Susan reveals the kind, generous and empowered woman that many horse lovers probably did not know.

Twelve years ago, Kisha Stewart was a 31 year old who recently gave birth trying to enjoy a night out with her husband. She dismissed some symptoms she was experiencing, but as the night progressed, she could not ignore what she was feeling and she went to the Emergency Room. Thanks to the RN who realized she was having a heart attack, she was eventually diagnosed with Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD). She is now an advocate for women who need to use their voice when they know something isn't right and yes, be dramatic to get someone to listen.

To learn more about Kisha's story including important information about heart health in women, go to https://kishaandscad.com/

You may know the typical symptoms of a heart attack but you may not know that women have different symptoms than men do. These may include:

  • shortness of breath
  • nausea or vomiting
  • back or jaw pain.
  • overwhelming sense of anxiety or a feeling of impending doom
  • unusual fatigue
  • dizziness
  • fainting.

Women might have discomfort in the chest, but not always. It’s worth noting that symptoms in women can be subtler and may be overlooked as signs of less serious conditions, like acid reflux or the flu. Thus, both men and women should pay close attention to their bodies and seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate a heart attack.

]]> Talk to Kim

Twelve years ago, Kisha Stewart was a 31 year old who recently gave birth trying to enjoy a night out with her husband. She dismissed some symptoms she was experiencing, but as the night progressed, she could not ignore what she was feeling and she went to the Emergency Room. Thanks to the RN who realized she was having a heart attack, she was eventually diagnosed with Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection (SCAD). She is now an advocate for women who need to use their voice when they know something isn't right and yes, be dramatic to get someone to listen.

To learn more about Kisha's story including important information about heart health in women, go to https://kishaandscad.com/

You may know the typical symptoms of a heart attack but you may not know that women have different symptoms than men do. These may include:

  • shortness of breath
  • nausea or vomiting
  • back or jaw pain.
  • overwhelming sense of anxiety or a feeling of impending doom
  • unusual fatigue
  • dizziness
  • fainting.

Women might have discomfort in the chest, but not always. It’s worth noting that symptoms in women can be subtler and may be overlooked as signs of less serious conditions, like acid reflux or the flu. Thus, both men and women should pay close attention to their bodies and seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate a heart attack.

Are you one of the 90% of people I talk to who have essential oils sitting around the house not being used? Or are you new to oils and have no idea how to use them? Or maybe you have an oil that you are unfamiliar with and need to know how to use it.

I have help! I am starting a new monthly oils subscription that is as easy as opening your email. Each month you will get at least 1 video (no more than 2 per month) explaining how to use a specific oil in 5 minutes or less. Very easy and convenient! To let me know you are interested, click this LINK and I will get back to you.

Kim Benoy, RN and Aromatherapist, is passionate about educating you about using essential oils safely. To learn more, check out her website www.midlifewithcourage.com.

Katherine Baldwin had an amazing career as a political journalist which took her all over the world. While she considered it a dream job, she found herself burned out in her mid 30's and needed a change. Listen to her story as she talks with Kim about her journey of discovering her "wake-up" calls and what she did to refocus on herself and what she needed and wanted in her life. She shares her "rock-bottoms" and how she helps others realize that you don't need to go that low to find yourself. She also shares her story of finding love after 40 and how her idea for her book came from the sky on a beach walk one day.


Katherine Baldwin is a relationships coach, midlife mentor, wellbeing speaker and author who supports and empowers midlife women to love themselves, create lives that they truly love and find healthy love. Katherine is a former international journalist for Bloomberg and Reuters. She worked as a foreign correspondent in Latin America and a political journalist based in the British parliament, during which time she travelled the globe with prime ministers and reported on politics, conflicts, a tsunami, an earthquake and two terrorist attacks. Yet throughout her high-profile career, Katherine was binge eating, binge drinking, over-working and engaging in unhealthy romantic relationships, eventually burning out and breaking down in her thirties.

Single, childless, burnt out and broken, Katherine found the courage to transform her life. She learned to love herself, found healthy love and marriage in her forties, published her first book, 'How to Fall in Love', and launched a successful coaching practice, using her experience and expertise to help others to make courageous changes in their lives and relationships.

She talks about how her mom-one of the first women news anchors in the 70's-warned her not to get into the industry but of course she did not listen. She talks with Kim about the realities of being a journalist today including taking on more duties for less pay, pitching ideas that may or may not be accepted, trying to write stories on the run, interviewing people, and always being "on" for breaking news to name just a few. The reality of the job is nowhere near the perception of the public especially for women who also have to juggle family along with such a demanding career.

She found herself naturally mentoring other women of all ethnicities and eventually experienced burnout, imposter syndrome and health issues as she realized she was working much more than the 40-hour work week. After retiring at 55, she looked for what her next path would be and found herself writing her book called "Is Your Way in Your Way?" but that was not the end of what she was meant to do.

Kim speaks with Nicole Kerr about her amazing story of growing up in the Bible belt, people pleasing despite knowing she was in the wrong place and a horrific accident that left her literally dead on the side of the road. Her story is one of resilience and learning to love herself and of letting go of what doesn't serve her, even if it means family.

This is an important conversation with a courageous woman who is on a quest to change our perceptions about death and how to live. Her book is called You Are Deathless, A near death experience taught me how to fully live and not fear death and Kim highly recommends it for everyone.


You can find Nicole's book anywhere you purchase them or go to her website HERE.

Fiona Valentine is a teacher at heart and very creative. She believes all of us are creative but we don't always recognize it even though it's a very important part of who we are. At one point in her life, she pushed her own creativity aside because she did not believe it was important enough to spend time on it.  Listen to her story of feeling stuck and how she overcame it and learned that creativity is not about talents, it's about skills. She tells us why being creative matters to us and how we can find where our creativity lies. Fiona also loves to dispel the myth of the "starving artist" and why it's just not true.

If you spent time over the holidays with your aging family members-parents or grandparents-you may have noticed that they need a little more help with self-care, hygiene, or simply getting around. Women over 40 generally become the caretakers in this situation and they may not know that options are available to help keep our relatives safely at home as long as possible or know when it's time to consider independent or assisted living. 

Alicia Harmon talks with Kim about these options, including respite care that can help keep everyone safe and happy as they age in place. She offers ways to start those tough but necessary conversations that most of us don't really want to have.

Danielle Bernock is the lady on the internet who loves you. She is an author, podcast host, and life coach from Michigan who came into her own after age 50. Her past history of trauma gave her a stoic yet oppressive attitude toward dealing with the life changes we all go through. She talks about her struggles and how she learned to deal with the past trauma in her life that she only discovered after writing her book at age 55. This is a conversation about faith, realization and re-evaluation of our lives.

Her books are: Emerging With Wings, A Bird Named Payn, Love’s Manifesto and Because You Matter and you can find them HERE. 

You can learn more about Danielle at her WEBSITE .

As a young adult, Candy Motzek did what she was supposed to do. She chose a career in geological engineering and then as life happened, she joined the corporate world in order to have a family. She kept saying yes to opportunities despite not really wanting them, and even with all the outside appearances of success, she was not happy. 

As many of us do, she became burned out and one day realized she needed to make a change and soon. This realization led her to become a business coach for life coaches which draws on her early desire to be a therapist. Candy offers us some wonderful lessons as we navigate our own journeys of courage and change.

Candy can be found online at her WEBSITE and she also has a PODCAST called She Coaches Coaches. 

You may also email Candy at info@candymotzek.com to connect with her.

Imagine going to an acting audition and having the casting director being really excited about your name and then when they realize you aren't who they thought, they are visibly disappointed. Lucy Liu (not THAT Lucy Liu) talks about comparing herself to others and how she always felt behind and was always chasing something. Listen to her story of realizing that all of these negative thoughts were of her own making and how she overcame it. Transforming her own life has led her to helping other women realize they can live an epic life and shatter those limiting beliefs we all have at some point.

Janice Baskin is a wife, mom, grandmother and business owner who shares her journey with Kim this week. She left her original career in the not-for-profit world to start working with her husband after realizing they were better when they spent more time together. She shares her lessons learned through her experience with colorectal cancer and the day someone reached out to her when she was feeling very low. That seemingly random connection helped her through some tough days and she encourages all of us to reach out to someone with a "small" gesture like a text or phone call. It could turn out to mean so much to that person. 

Listen in as Janice talks about completing the Boston Marathon and starting her blog after a few years of procrastinating and then regretting not getting it going.

Amanda Lathrop has an amazing story of adventure and following her heart. An internship in college involving her "fun" minor of film studies, eventually led her to create her own company that shares stories of families and businesses through video. 

Her stories of backpacking through Europe, working for Paisley Park (yes she met Prince), working on television shows like Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Bizarre Foods, and Monster Quest will entertain you as you listen to this episode. 

In 2014, she started her own company called Lead Sheep Productions and going back to her psychology roots, she wanted to focus on connecting with the people she interviewed. She specializes in recording conversations for families who want personal histories taken for the future generations. Amanda reminds us that we should not wait until later in life to ask our parents or grandparents about their stories. 

She also helps other businesses through her video storytelling to help them connect with their customers through sharing their values and messages in their own words.

Debra Blaine is a doctor from Long Island, New York who is in the process of retiring after a long career but she is also searching for "uncommon sense in a society that is losing its mind...and its heart."  She talks with Kim about her career as a doctor and how she enjoyed it but it wasn't really what she truly wanted to do initially.  This open and entertaining single mom and MD experienced frustration with the healthcare system that is now run by businesspeople and not doctors. The patients turned into "customers" and the need to keep them happy which caused her to feel betrayed by her own profession. 

As she continued on her journey, she realized that she wanted to write about her experiences as a type of therapy for herself which eventually led to writing three books including a murder mystery. Debra talks about how writing these books helped her realize that she didn't want to be in the medical profession anymore and she found a new way to help others.

Dr. Susan Landers spent 34 years as a neonatologist while raising children and being a wife to a pediatric nephrologist. She talks with Kim about the challenges of "doing it all" and the depression that set in about a year after her third child was born. Everyone else in her family was adjusting to life in Texas but she was not happy and didn't know what to do until a friend recommended she talk with a psychiatrist. This conversation led her to share about feeling like she was spinning plates and the simple question: "why don't you take down some plates?" 

Listen to the whole conversation about how to deal with feeling like we women have to do "all the things" and knowing when to take the time to take care of us. Susan gives us some great tips for how to accomplish this balance in our busy lives. 

Susan loves to tell stories that reassure younger mothers to know that they, too, can be a “good enough mother” especially if they work full-time. She supports mothers with her social media posts and her blog. She also cautions physicians and nurses - who might be experiencing serious burnout – about the ways in which it affects their lives and their relationships, and the many ways to treat and recover from burnout. Her new book is “So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood.”

Kim introduces you to Stephanie Snow, a woman who was transformed by a comment made to her at a very young age. As so many of us do, she focused on her body being perfect and eventually realized that perfection is not possible. She talks about her journey of "changing my body to make it perfect and acceptable, which then beautifully over the years changed into knowing that my body is beautiful and acceptable."

We can all relate to her experiences and wisdom as we navigate midlife and the changes we find happening in our own bodies.  

Stephanie is an expert in dealing with women’s body image issues. She is a Mind Body Eating Coach (certified through The Institute for the Psychology of Eating-IPE), and holds a BA in Psychology, from Utah State University. She is also a recovering perfectionist, beauty seeker, and insecurity expert. She shares her wit and wisdom in a way that makes audiences feel heard and understood.  Stephanie creates an instant rapport with her stories, humor, and energy, as she leads the conversation about discovering and celebrating the true beauty in each of us.

Merle Saferstein has a wonderful story of feeling lost in midlife and then finding a new path to herself. A chance encounter with a former priest on the beach in Florida led her to working with Holocaust survivors via an Anne Frank exhibit. She calls this work the most important work she has ever done and this created her desire to help others think about the legacy they are living and leaving for others.  

Merle R. Saferstein is an educator, speaker, and author. She has been journaling for 48 years and has amassed a collection of 380 journals, the majority of which are the basis for her legacy journal Living and Leaving My Legacy, vol 1. After twenty-six years as a Holocaust educator where she worked with hundreds of Holocaust survivors helping them to leave their legacy, she retired and created Living and Leaving Your Legacy®. Through classes, workshops, and lectures, she has guided thousands of people in sacred legacy work, writing for wellness, and journaling. Her short story collection, Room 732, pays homage to the historic Hollywood Beach Hotel. Merle lives in Miami, Florida with her husband of fifty-five years and has two children and two grandchildren.

Amy Nubson grew up in the midwest as a farmer's daughter and learned at an early age to honor others' needs before her own. 

In her own words:

I, myself, am over 40 and it was[n't] until then that I really understood myself and my voice. Over the years I found myself compromising and just getting things done, that I had lost my way and in my 40's I gave myself permission to discover what I wanted. I assist people in finding their stories, their dreams so they can have the courage to be themselves no matter what. Even though I don't just work with women, majority of my clients are women. It my role to guide them to see what they are not seeing.

This conversation with Amy features many examples of Amy taking smaller, courageous steps that led to bigger steps and opportunities. Her three-year journey helped her find her authentic self, take courage in trying things that scared her and becoming a more confident woman. She uses her journey to help others take these steps as well.

  2. Pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
  3. Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
  4. Other signs such as breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness.

Genesis Amaris Kemp is not a midlife woman but she is courageous. She is well-spoken and shares her messages of empowerment and strength that she has learned as she navigates life. This soon-to-be Mom shares her experiences and thoughts on how to stand up for what you deserve and learning to live every moment. 

Genesis has experienced bullying, racism and job salary inequity and she shares how she overcame these challenges to help others find their own power through focusing on diversity and getting out of that comfort zone. 

Genesis lives in Houston, Texas and spent 15 years in corporate America including 12 years in the Oil and Gas sector. She is an author of the book Chocolate Drop in Corporate America: From the Pit to the Palace, she is the host and founder of the GEMS podcast and a first generation American of South American and Caribbean descent. 

Genesis is a woman that empowers others to speak up for themselves. Yes, it may be challenging; yes, it may hurt. But in the long run, she desires to encourage others to help those who may not have a voice. She is a trailblazer who wants others to live out their dreams, goals, and visions. We all have been given an excellent purpose in life. It is up to us to walk it out and live victoriously!

Karyn Seitz is a coach and mentor who realized she lacked confidence in her own life and through searching and mentorship, she found the missing piece to change her life. She turned inward to find out that the problem was inside her and she could help herself find what was missing. Karyn's journey started in her 20's; she realized she needed help and sought therapy which she eventually realized didn't give her what she needed. 

Her journey included:

  • Turning to healing modalities like shamanism, reiki, Healing Touch and becoming a healer herself trying to do good work for others but neglecting herself 
  • Having a 30-something crisis where she was doing all the things and reading all the books to help herself but still feeling lost
  • Meeting her mentors who helped her realize that she was the problem and that this was a good thing
  • Finding the deeper understanding that the answers were within her and the freedom gained from that realization
  • Realizing that her previous spiritual journey was a process of working against herself
  • Knowing that she is responsible for her own choices and how this helped her create a path to happiness
  • How God was giving her "wake-up" signs and intervened to help her find her purpose
  • How she helps others become better versions of themselves through her program called Awakened Grace
  • How unconditional love allows us to show up fully in our relationships

Tess Scott is a Canadian Mom, Grami (with a heart over the i) and author, who learned to listen to what God wanted her to do...eventually. Her journey from the black sheep to "Jesus girl" brought her to a place of recognizing that it is ok to move forward even if you are scared. 

She talks candidly with Kim about her early life and not fitting in and how she filled the emotional gaps in her life with men, marrying several times, divorces, and how God turned her life around. 

Tess speaks with humor about her journey through re-marrying her ex-husband, breast cancer and a mini-stroke while realizing she needed to write a book to inspire other women. Her advice to herself and others will ring true with all who listen. 

Tess is an entertaining speaker and author whose book "Listen Sister: Finding Hope in the Freakshow of Life" is awesome!

This episode features Julie Hilsen, an author and angel guide from Georgia who started her career as a speech pathologist. Despite her reluctance to believe, her angels kept sending her messages and eventually she found the courage to invite them in and her life changed for the better. She has a unique perspective on life that includes finding joy in ways that you may not be familiar with. 

Julie discusses with Kim:

  • Looking back at her life and realizing things happened at the right time
  • Imperfection is where you find joy
  • Angel messages-be aware, be listening and ask for help
  • Taking care of your body first so you can connect with your soul
  • Just breathe
  • Responding vs reacting
  • What to do when fear shows up
  • Caring for yourself as you would a child

Julie Hilsen has spent her life in the love vibration. From an early age, she was empathically connected with people of all ages, origins and creeds. Her masters in communication sciences and connections to Spirit are blended within her book to share secrets about creating a unique life of deep, expansive love. She is a certified Angel Practitioner, intuitive and transformational coach.

Julie Hilsen lives in Cumming, Georgia with her husband of 20 years, their sons Reese and Blake as well as their fur baby, Sydney. She enjoys cooking, playing tennis, golfing, gardening, and taking long hikes in the forest. She also enjoys coaching and coordinating as a volunteer for Special Pops, a non profit for promoting adaptive tennis for Special Olympic athletes. Her intention for living a healthy, creative, joyful, and sensual life has been illuminated by the Counsel of Light and many Angelic entities. She shares their messages and guidance with you as it is her pleasure to teach others to connect to their divine wisdom and angelic guides. As when one of us is happy, we shine that happiness out into our world and we are transformed.

While she was experiencing these feelings, she lost the love of her life and as she began journaling about this, a book was being created. Kim and Jennifer talk about: 

  • Realizing she was filtering what she showed to others and wasn't being her true self 
  • Needing to speak her truth and be open and vulnerable
  • Knowing the right time to release her book to the world 
  • Knowing she needed to be of service to humanity and her previous job was not achieving that
  • The writing process and who helped her
  • Connecting with others who have passed
  • Discussing grief with others including "getting over it"
  • Finding joy in yourself rather than jobs, titles, things 


Jennifer M. Alemany was born in Brooklyn, New York, she is Latin American with a background from Puerto Rico, Mexico, and Cuba. She was the first to graduate from college in her family with an Associate degree in Early Childhood Education from SUNY Cobleskill and a Bachelor degree in Psychology from Brooklyn College. After losing the love of her life three years ago, she began to transform her life through loss and her first book, Mark My Love was born. She speaks openly about her grieving process and being okay with not being okay sometimes. In her memoir, Mark My Love she explores love, loss, and looking at life differently. 

Optimal wellness is important to Jennifer, she has been practicing yoga 13 years. Jennifer is a Reiki Master, a spiritualist and has been meditating for over 11 years. She currently lives in New York City with her dog Leo Luna.

Sybil Swanson is a lovely and lively woman who decided at the age of 76 to try something totally new to her: painting. Did she take classes or read books to learn? No, she watched YouTube videos for 3 months before she even picked up a brush! Now at age 80, she has explored many different mediums and has landed on oils as her preferred method of creating beautiful artwork. 

Sybil has created her own business and offers in-home and group painting parties which are much different than what you may be used to seeing. She does "pour parties" where no brushes are used. Each painting is an individual and you create what you want it to be. 

Sybil is a joy to talk to and her art is beautiful and available at area venues including the Maple Grove Arts Center in Maple Grove, Minnesota. Her website is still a work in progress but you can reach her via email to see her paintings or schedule a painting party with her. You can also take a class with her at the Maple Grove Arts Center by clicking the link below. 

Sybil wants us all to know that age should not be a factor in achieving your dreams and she is living this out everyday. She is the little engine that could-do not limit yourself, believe in yourself!

Jen shares her journey along with the following:

  • Realizing in 2019 that she wanted to connect others
  • Some people may not have the energy for networking and why
  • Introverts get their energy from turning inward
  • Finding what helps fill you up-just breathing can shift your energy
  • Extroverts wanting to be around other people's energy to fill them up
  • Ways to focus including using oils and energy work
  • Using white space to give yourself time to rejuvenate
  • Defining "intropreneur" and making change with others
  • Knowing that even extroverts need to stop and breathe sometimes
  • Knowing you are here for bigger things


Jen Jones is a REALTOR®, author, speaker, and an entrepreneur. She has been an entrepreneur for over 20 years and has successfully scaled businesses by building deep, meaningful relationships with her clients that inspire repeat business and referrals.

Wellness Options Series

Since May is mental health awareness month, we are talking with Dr. Mary Freitag, a clinical psychologist from Stillwater, Minnesota who offers mainstream and integrative therapies in her work. Her message that we need to listen to our bodies to help us heal is so vital to anyone and particularly with women in midlife. 

Kim and Dr. Mary talk about the three top issues facing women in midlife:

  1. Sandwich generation issues-raising and launching kids, partner relationships and aging parent needs
  2. Too many roles-the need we have to give 100% in everything we do leading to burnout
  3. Menopause-the physical symptoms leading to depression and messages that it's "the end"

All of these issues are often called "midlife crisis" which is not an actual diagnosis but a life stage that is completely normal and a springboard to a new chapter in life. They also discuss these issues relating to:

  • Aligning our values with our actions by knowing what is most important to us
  • Our midlife transition (not crisis) is based on physiological, emotional and societal changes
  • Each woman reacts differently to midlife and the process of reclaiming who we are
  • Emotional effects from losses experienced in midlife can lead to depression and/or anxiety
  • How we squelch our right brain signs of distress
  • Healing through both left and right brain therapy rather than just one or the other
  • Integrating both types of healing through SpiritWoods
  • Body movement grows and strengthens your brain as well as your body
  • Our wisdom resides in our bodies-we need to listen to our bodies first and figure out the why later

  • Her work in chemical dependency and adolescents
  • Realizing how much she enjoys speaking to others despite being an introvert
  • Turning towards 50 and experiencing strange physical and emotional changes-"Is it just me?"
  • How a book grew out of her conversations with about 200 women in midlife
  • Using humor and prayer to overcome uncertainty
  • Feeling stuck in comfortable routines
  • Making small changes to break out of the comfort zone
  • Her advice to herself and others: Worry never really worked
  • Celebrating and supporting each other


Kim Kane is a retired educator; serving over 34 years. In addition, Kim is a national trainer/presenter on a variety of topics including; education, chemical dependency, stress reduction, mindfulness practices, and most recently on women, aging and living in gratitude.

Kim entertains and informs many all around the world. Her mix of stories, both humorous and tender-hearted, help to create the sense that you are in her living room having a personal conversation over a cup of coffee, or more often than not, a glass of wine. After interviewing over 200 women about aging, she took ordinary experiences and created stories filled with extraordinary learning and moments of gratitude to apply for everyday living. She put it all together and created her award-winning book: Sparkle On…Women Aging in Gratitude.

In addition, she is a Transitional Life Coach; helping women to navigate through transitional times as they age. Kim is the host of the podcast: Oatmeal, Pearls and Bourbon; a podcast on healthy living, pearls of wisdom and a toast to life! Her website: www.kimkaneandgratitude.com and Facebook Group: 50+ And Fabulous www.facebook.com/groups/womenfiftyandfabulous/ are both filled with space for community, resources and fun for women aged 50+.

All represent her belief it is never too late to do and to be whatever it is you desire!

Beatrice has a unique way of discussing and instilling hope in others. She discusses what she calls "Mindless Behaviors" during this episode and how to overcome them. 

  • Working in event marketing for 20 years and then wanting more
  • How life patterns affect our behaviors
  • We are given tools that don't work for us because they are not ours
  • Being comfortable in our chaos feels safe but can be toxic
  • Negative unconscious messages we all receive and how they affect us
  • Needing to change the system not just the message
  • You can't serve others if you have never mastered yourself
  • What mindless behaviors are and what they do to us
  • How she has helped others through simulations
  • The lie that we have no choice 
  • How her book gives people a starting point for change

Beatrice Adenodi is an Author, business consultant, awareness advocate, and founder/CEO of Mirror Ink, a business consulting firm in Minneapolis. As a first-generation Nigerian-American immigrant, Beatrice had to figure everything out independently. Over the years, she built her own set of tools to overcome life's challenges. Through her unique perspective, she has been able to help many people get out of unfortunate situations by guiding them from being reactive to reflective in their settings. After completing her book about these experiences, Mindless Behaviors: Breaking Through Unseen Barriers, her platform is now poised to help create generations of hopeful people.

You can reach Beatrice via email: info@mirrorink360.com and can check out her book through her website www.mindless-behaviors.com. 

Mindless Behaviors: Breaking Through Unseen Barriers can be found anywhere you purchase books as well.

Jenny Greensmith was a synchronized swimmer and coach who eventually found a career in healthcare. However, she realized she was so unhappy that she needed to make a change. That change was starting her own fitness business that helps women (and men) change their life and feel empowered and confident. 

Kim and Jenny discuss:

  • Her gut feeling that she was not doing what she was meant to do
  • Realizing that the one hour of her day that she was most happy would lead her to her new career
  • Finally knowing her path was the right one and it changed her whole outlook
  • The shame factor in fitness-identifying the shame that is meant to motivate but doesn't

Jenny is the owner and founder of Best You Health Coaching and Group Training. She has a Master's Degree in Health and Exercise Psychology from the University of Alberta and an undergraduate degree in Kinesiology from McMaster University. She has been teaching fitness classes for 14 years and is a certified personal trainer and competitive coach. Jenny is a mom to 2 great kids. She loves hiking, reading a good book and biking in the forest.

Kelly Anderson aka Crayon Kelly has a story that many of us will resonate with. She followed the traditional path of school, marriage and kids and then found herself depleted and realizing she had given everyone else what they needed before herself. She started in the art world in high school and even opened a business with her now ex-husband but found that her art was taking a back seat. Listen as she and Kim discuss her journey towards the realization that she needed to start focusing on herself and unpack all the emotions she had kept stuffed into her emotional "suitcase."

She talks about: 

  • Divorcing her husband in 2018 and focusing on her own artwork.
  • Working with crayons as a medium in her art; using the child-like attitude into her art to show that it can be impactful as an adult.
  • "When feeling strong emotions, people tell you to keep it to yourself, don’t be negative or vulnerable. I was sick of hearing that."
  • Unpacking the suitcase of emotions that are stored away. 
  • Mindless behavior of putting things away and not sharing or dealing with them.
  • Focusing on herself rather than everyone else. 
  • Started her own business, new art projects, thinking about new accomplishments.
  • Defining herself as a creative strategist-"My creativity doesn’t fit in a box."
  • Letting go of what scares you. Everyone is creative in some way. Connecting with others who are different than you.

This week's episode features the first monthly segment which includes a conversation with a health expert who will talk about a subject related to women's health and wellness. The goal of this monthly feature is to provide information without judgment for women to know they have options for self-care. 

Dr. Barb Wasson is the owner of River Point Family Acupuncture in Hudson, WI and is very knowledgeable and passionate about providing quality preventative wellness care for the whole family. Dr. Barb sees patients from kids to older adults and treats the whole body in a kind and caring way. 

Dr. Barb practices cosmetic acupuncture which improves the appearance of the skin by reducing wrinkles and minimizing crows feet, firming and toning the skin, and preventing sagging all without the use of potentially dangerous invasive surgeries and unhealthy “non-invasive” procedures such as injectables. Listen in as she talks about how this process works and how soon you can see results. She answers the question which is probably on everyone's mind: Do those needles hurt?

If you would like to learn more about cosmetic acupuncture or acupuncture in general, please contact Dr. Barb via email or phone the clinic.

Antonia Medeiros is a life coach who specializes in helping women create the life that they REALLY want and empower themselves to become who they REALLY are.  Antonia started her journey like so many of us by realizing that she wanted more out of her own life. She had a beautiful family and a wonderful career but something was missing; she was feeling lost and unhappy and did not know why. She had "checked all the boxes" but feeling ashamed because she had these negative feelings. She stopped everything and started looking for answers and found a life coach that resonated with her. Flying to the other side of the world and experiencing an intense 4 day journey of self-discovery led her to wanting more for herself and others. She talks with Kim about:  Wanting other women to feel that freedom she has found and help them create meaning in their lives.  Feeling invisible after age 40. Realizing she was helping to empower women all along in her work as an author and journalist.  Women in their 40's and beyond are unstoppable forces that will change the world.  We need to step up and set boundaries and still be a good Mom and partner. We are so tuned into what others want us to be and that contributes to loneliness and despair.  Once we achieve that feeling of freedom, there's no going back. Antonia is offering an online course called Boundaries Busters to help you say yes to yourself more often by setting boundaries with time, other people and self-care. This course will teach you how to "un-learn" how to say yes to yourself, realize this is not selfish, and give you the energy to care for others too.

]]> Talk to Kim

Antonia Medeiros is a life coach who specializes in helping women create the life that they REALLY want and empower themselves to become who they REALLY are.  Antonia started her journey like so many of us by realizing that she wanted more out of her own life. She had a beautiful family and a wonderful career but something was missing; she was feeling lost and unhappy and did not know why. She had "checked all the boxes" but feeling ashamed because she had these negative feelings. She stopped everything and started looking for answers and found a life coach that resonated with her. Flying to the other side of the world and experiencing an intense 4 day journey of self-discovery led her to wanting more for herself and others. She talks with Kim about:  Wanting other women to feel that freedom she has found and help them create meaning in their lives.  Feeling invisible after age 40.

Lise Spence-Parsons is an accountant turned artist who moved to the United States from Great Britain in her mid 30's. She had been working in the corporate world-she calls it "corporate madness"-for almost 20 years and realized how exciting it would be to get out of that "rat race" when the opportunity presented itself. 

Listen in as she talks to Kim about the challenges and benefits of moving to a whole new country:

  • The culture shock of a trip to the grocery store 
  • Being promised a white Christmas and the cold of Minnesota
  • How her love of creating was rekindled when she came to America and the stories of her melted crayon projects as a child
  • Her philosophy of life being full of chapters and her belief that she has a few more left in hers
  • Her dream of writing books and making that come true

Lise Spence-Parsons creates beaded jewelry and watercolor artwork which she offers on her website: www.lottiestrinkets.com. You can email Lise at lise@lottiestrinkets.com for more information. Watch for her book "The Remains of Men" to be published later this year and her current book  The Shorts, a collection of short stories available in paperback and e-format.

How often do we take what we read/see/listen to at face value? Probably more often than we should. Sometimes messages are designed to be communicated to us to lead us a certain direction. 

This week, Kim talks about how she learned to question pretty much everything. 

  • Learning about how advertising leads us to buy and looking deeper to find the true message
  • Sharing a recent example of a social media post offering information, but not all the information
  • Talking about research studies and how many parts there are and how we can navigate them
  • Learning to question everything including our own healthcare-social media is not a reliable resource
  • Questioning is empowering when you find the answers and make your own decisions
  • Kim wants you to do your own research and she can help you get started

Some people who work from home are easily distracted by kids, pets or waiting housework and they have a difficult time getting things done. Kim has the opposite problem-she wants to keep working and working even when she should be taking the time off. 

Add the holiday preparations and activities on top of it and things get a bit crazy! 

Listen in as she offers some ideas that have worked for her to find time to rest and relax. She literally needs to schedule it into her day and grab those essential oils to help!  

So how do you relax? Do you need to schedule that time in or does it come naturally to you?

Have you ever wanted to write a book?  This week Kim introduces you to Julia Kneeland, a published author and retired elementary school teacher from Connecticut who fosters a love of reading in her own family and others. She talks about bribing-er-rewarding her son years ago for reading books when he informed her that he didn't like reading (GASP!) and how her grandkids inspired her to write and are now helping her with her books about Jig the dog. She is a sweet lady and a beautiful example of someone who took her love of books and works to inspire young (and not so young) people not just to read but to take chances in life. The award winning Jig Gets Lost is currently available on Amazon and watch for his next adventure called Jig Goes to the Zoo and who knows where else he will go? Actually, we do know because Julia talks about it in this episode. Reach out to Julia on her website www.juliakneeland.net to learn more about this lovely lady.

This week, Kim talks about the importance of feeling those sad feelings that seem to come out of nowhere and almost physically knock you down. 

We all lose someone or something during our lifetime and there is no "set" timeline for the grieving process to be over. Kim has found it helpful to let the sad feelings come and be acknowledged so that she can continue on with her day. Essential oils are also a great tool to help a person acknowledge those overwhelming feelings. They do not "make you feel better" but they do help you work through what you are feeling. 

If you are having trouble coping with the grieving process or any other emotional or mental health issue, please seek professional help. Below are some resources for you.

This week we are starting a 3 part series called Courage, Confidence and Calm. This week's episode is short and sweet and will give you the opportunity to do one action step to start you on the road to finding your courage. So grab a little piece of paper and pen and take a listen! 

Then come back next week to hear about how courage leads to confidence. 

If you want to review the definitions of courage I talk about from my earlier blog post, click HERE.


If you are a "paper planner person" (try saying that 5 times fast), you should check out the Sol Planner for 2022. I have used this planner the last 2 years and have just ordered my third for 2022. I love it because it helps me reach my goals by having them listed out by year, quarter, month and week based on my values. It has plenty of space for everything I need to do and even has special sections for keeping track of financial goals, books you want to read, birthdays, and daily routines. Check it out at my link HERE. Full disclosure: I do get a small percentage if you purchase through my link and it doesn't cost you extra.

I had to make a decision about my horse this year that was not fun but necessary and I share a little bit about that in the first part of this week's episode. 

The rest of the podcast is devoted to finding courage in failure and what that means and how it can help you move forward. 

We all fail at some point but what we do with that failure will determine how courageous we are.

Are you experiencing or about to experience that time of life where the kids are leaving home? Are you thinking: "What do we do now?"

This episode is for you and anyone who is heading for the "empty nest" transition. Karen Herbert is a wellness coach who specializes in helping women and couples who are trying to find their purpose and meaning as parents, partners and people after the kids strike out on their own. 

Karen's journey started about 5 years ago when she was feeling overwhelmed and burdened. She started looking for that "spark" to make changes to release what was holding her back so she could move on to the next season of life. She started working with a life coach who helped her to be intentional and empowered to put herself into the mix of what was happening and let go of that "mom guilt" so many of us experience. She has a wonderful way of explaining how she brought herself "into the mix" of her family life and how much it helped everyone. 

Her experiences led her to become a life coach along with her husband and her focus is helping people do the internal work necessary to engage in this transition intentionally. Finding purpose and discovering their gifts and strengths will help empower those in this wonderful time of life. You will be inspired by Karen's story and experiences! 

Karen Herbert is a certified professional wellness coach, the founder and CEO of Themelios Coaching, and the creator of the Life In Abundance a 6-month coaching program for midlife women, where she helps women find the purpose they crave as they transition to an empty nest.

Listen in on my conversation with Phyllis who is an herbalist and Mom from Hudson, Wisconsin. As so often happens, she started out on a path that she found was not the right one for her and then found another way and oh-by-the-way-a passion for helping others. We talk about her goal of empowering others to realize they can make choices for themselves when it comes to healthcare. She wants to help people reconnect with their bodies and do what's best for them with personalized options. If you want to connect with Phyllis, please check out her website www.sacredibisbotanicals.com or find her on Instagram.

If I could describe this week's guest in one word it would be "Encourager." From her early college days of sending random encouraging notes to total strangers, to helping discouraged businesswomen find the courage and ideas to move forward, Kendall is a giver. Listen to her story of finding ways to connect with others authentically by listening to other businesswomen who were brave enough to be real amid all the "should's" and "have-to's." She pays that forward by helping through her website, encouraging emails and social media groups. Check out her website knormanproofreading.com for inspiration and yes, encouragement. Even if you are not a business owner, you will find something there that gives you a positive vibe.

Listen to my conversation with Lisa, a Registered Nurse who has gone through her own major health challenges and used her experiences to help others. She acknowledges the "noise" of the health care system from the patient's point of view and has created a peaceful place for others to come and learn self-compassion. Her vision of helping those with chronic illness has been therapeutic not only for the people she serves, but for herself as well. This healthcare hero has also created a simple reminder for those dealing with stress--Hint: BAM is not just for comic book heroes! You can learn more by visiting Lisa's website www.thechronicillnesslounge.com

Listen to my conversation with Lisa, a Registered Nurse who has gone through her own major health challenges and used her experiences to help others. She acknowledges the "noise" of the health care system from the patient's point of view and has created a peaceful place for others to come and learn self-compassion. Her vision of helping those with chronic illness has been therapeutic not only for the people she serves, but for herself as well. This healthcare hero has also created a simple reminder for those dealing with stress--Hint: BAM is not just for comic book heroes! You can learn more by visiting Lisa's website www.thechronicillnesslounge.com
