This is your Women Over 40 podcast.

Welcome to Women Over 40, the podcast where we celebrate reinvention, courage, and what’s possible when you embrace the next chapter. Today’s episode is all about that powerful, sometimes daunting, always transformative idea: reinventing yourself after 40.

Maybe you’re listening as you sip morning coffee, or on a quick walk between meetings. Maybe you’re wondering if it’s too late to chase that dream you tucked away years ago. If so, you’re in the right place. Because, as Toni Morrison published her first novel at 40, Vera Wang designed her first wedding dress at 40, and Arianna Huffington launched The Huffington Post at 55. They’re proof that life’s richest chapters often begin on our own terms, after 40.

Let’s get right to it. Reinvention isn’t about a dramatic change overnight. It’s about listening to the whisper inside that says, “What if?” Take Susan Lister Locke. She grew up in Rhode Island, married young, raised two kids, and worked in her husband’s family’s specialty stores in Nantucket. She never stopped asking herself what truly lit her up, even when others expected her to settle into life as it was. Approaching 50, after her career path dissolved and the family business closed, Susan sat down and made a simple list: What do I love? What do I want? What am I good at?

That list led her to nurture her long-dormant love for art and jewelry-making. What started as a hobby became a new career. Her jewelry now graces the cases of Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts and boutiques in Nantucket. Reinvention for Susan wasn’t about erasing her past, but weaving it into something new and deeply her own.

But what if you feel more lost than inspired? Meet Shinde from Ashokvatika Nursery. Her 40s began in grief, not triumph. She admits her curiosity had nearly vanished. But sitting quietly among her plants, journaling her small ideas, she rediscovered her spark. She didn’t rush into a grand business plan. Instead, she experimented—growing houseplants in coconut shells, then watching as her joy and creativity took root. She learned from Japanese gardeners on YouTube, joined a local business collective, and redefined success on her own terms.

This is what reinvention really looks like: small steps, deep self-curiosity, and a brave willingness to ignore the naysayers. It’s about asking, “What lights me up?”—then gently, persistently, making space for it. Reinvention after 40 is not about chasing lost time, but claiming your voice, energy, and passions with a vigor that only life experience can give.

So, if you’re feeling called to something new—a business, a creative pursuit, a new way of living—know this: Age is not the hurdle. In fact, your experience is the advantage. Your story, your stumbles, even your grief—they’re all compost for the next season of growth.

This week, I challenge you: Write your own list. What are you drawn to? What have you always wanted to try? Step into your power, Women Over 40—reinvention is waiting, and you are more than ready.
