    They share their perspectives on ageing, reinvention, civic duty, and the power of storytelling.

  • What We've Learned - Our Penultimate Episode
    2025/10/14

    In this episode, the penultimate one of the podcast, Lucy and Lisette reflect on their long friendship and what they have learned about each other over their year of podcasting together every week.

    They discuss Lisette's experience attending a conference in Berlin on the topic of steward-ownership, how this model differs from traditional shareholder-driven capitalism, and the potential it holds for creating more sustainable, mission-driven businesses.

    Key Insights

    1. Lisette and Lucy reflect on their long friendship, recounting highlights from their youth and how their relationship has deepened through this podcast series. They have gained new appreciation for each other's strengths and perspectives.

    2. Lucy sees Lisette as a force of nature and is impressed by her intellect, wisdom, and willingness to think outside the box.

    3. Lisette sees Lucy as someone who has made significant contributions through her work giving a voice to the unheard, and she encourages Lucy to embrace the authority and impact she has had.

    4. They discuss their approaches to time, work, and hobbies, noting their shared tendency to be more focused on work and contribution than traditional hobbies.

    5. Lisette's involvement in a steward-owned company called Crowd Building has given her a firsthand perspective on the potential of this model to drive positive change Steward-ownership establishes companies as mission-driven entities, owned by a foundation rather than individual shareholders.

    6. The podcast series has been popular and successful, though it is now coming to an end. Lucy expresses some difficulty with endings, but they plan to celebrate their year of turning 70 in the final episode.

    Why You Should Listen

    Lucy and Lisette have been friends since they were 8 years old, and bonded over trying to teach each other their own language as little girls. Lisette’s abilities with English have far outshone Lucy’s with Dutch – though Lisette puts this down partly to having lived a past life as an English-speaker.

    Over the years, they have kept in touch, with periods of more or less frequent contact, but have really connected deeply through doing this weekly podcast together over the past year.

    This episode also gives a fascinating glimpse into an emerging alternative to traditional capitalism, one that could have far-reaching implications for how we think about corporate structure and responsibility. Lucy and Lisette's discussion offers valuable insights for anyone interested in exploring new models of business ownership and governance that prioritise long-term sustainability and social impact over short-term profits.

  • The Pope, Arnie & The Famous Author
    2025/10/07

    As their Year of Being 70 draws to a close (just two more episodes to come), hosts Lucy and Lisette report back on an eventful week for both of them.

    Lisette has been travelling in Italy and attending a Vatican Conference on the environment convened by the Pope, at which Arnold Schwarzenegger gave a keynote speech.

    Lucy celebrated her 30th wedding anniversary to her second husband, Richard. She tells the story of giving a talk that led to a powerful business connection.

    And the dynamic duo explore the reinvention, purpose, and conscious growth that can come with each new decade of life.

    Key Insights

    • Lisette recently attended a conference at the Vatican organised by the Pope to discuss caring for the environment, which she found to be a profound and inspiring experience.

    • Lucy talks about celebrating her 30th wedding anniversary to her second husband, and how she has now been married a total of 50 years between her two marriages. Her second marriage was a personal reinvention for her.

    • Reinvention is a common theme for women, as they often go through more cyclical family and career changes compared to men.

    • Embracing a sense of purpose and finding meaningful work can be a powerful driver for growth and fulfilment in the later stages of life.

    • Lucy shares a story about overcoming her nerves to give a talk without slides, which ended up leading to an exciting new business opportunity with Forbes.

    • Lisette talks about connecting with like-minded, conscious individuals to open up a world of new opportunities and wisdom, and owning businesses in a more sustainable, purpose-driven way (like through steward ownership) is a powerful emerging model.

    Why You Should Listen

    This episode offers a refreshing and uplifting perspective on ageing, offering inspiration and practical insights for women (and men) seeking to make the most of their later years. Whether you're approaching 70 yourself or simply interested in conscious growth, Lucy and Lisette's conversation here is a must-listen that will leave you motivated to embrace the next chapter of your life with vigour and purpose.

  • Feminine Wisdom & The Search For Purpose
    2025/10/01

    In this episode of "The Year of Being 70," Lucy and Lisette discuss the power of sharing personal stories, the feminine approach to business and purpose, and the challenges of breaking through patriarchal structures - all while Lisette travels through Italy and prepares to attend a high-level conference at the Vatican.

    Key Insights

    • Sharing personal stories can inspire others and make our purpose more visible, rather than hiding behind professionalism.

    • Women’s lives play out in cycles – biologically, emotionally and relationally, compared to the more linear "ladder" view of men’s lives.

    • Bringing the feminine voice and perspective to male-dominated spaces like business and religion is crucial for creating more holistic, purpose-driven change.

    • Embracing humility and stillness can be powerful antidotes to the ego-driven "saviour" mentality that can creep into purpose-driven work.

    • Age and experience can provide the confidence to be more vocal and unapologetic about one's values and beliefs.

    Why You Should Listen

    This conversation offers rich insights into the unique challenges and opportunities women face as they navigate purpose, spirituality, and power structures in the second half of life.

    Lisette and Lucy's candid exchange provides a refreshing counterpoint to the typical narrative around ageing, inviting listeners to embrace the wisdom and confidence that comes with time.

    Join The Conversation

    Do you share personal stories from your life experience, to encourage or inspire others? Or do you feel that you need to protect your personal experiences in your professional space? Do you agree, as a woman or a man, that women's lives tend to be more cyclical and men's more linear? Are you on a mission in this phase of your life? Does it power what you do and how you show up?

  • 50 Years Later - From 21st to 71st Birthdays
    2025/09/23

    In this episode, longtime friends Lucy and Lisette revisit Lisette's Year of Being 70, as today it ends as she celebrates her 71st birthday.

    They recall their 21st birthdays half a century ago and, through their reflective conversation, explore how their perspectives and experiences have evolved over the past 50 years - from having the freedom to make choices about contraception and career, to witnessing the changing social landscape around women's rights and personal freedoms.

    Their chat offers a unique window into the lived realities and shifting norms for women across generations. Concepts like 'Entrepreneur' and 'Startup' just weren't used in the 1970s and 80s when these two were starting businesses.

    Key Insights

    • Lisette had a big celebratory 21st party with her parents; Lucy was already married and on the verge of emigrating to Australia and a whole new life.

    • The freedom to make choices about one's life, body and future is a relatively recent privilege that these women have witnessed first-hand over their lifetimes.

    • Societal attitudes and laws around women's rights, from opening bank accounts to getting mortgages and starting businesses, have undergone dramatic - but not always linear - progress over the past 50 years.

    • Friendships and social connections often take on new meaning and dimensions as we age, with Lisette finding herself making new friends of all ages even in her 70s.

    • The passage of time brings a different kind of wisdom, self-acceptance and sense of identity, allowing Lisette to embrace her role as a "paver of the way" rather than an initiator.

    • Technology and surveillance have significantly changed the landscape of personal safety, both enhancing it in some ways but also presenting new challenges.

    Why You Should Listen:

    This thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation offers a unique window into the lived experiences and shifting societal norms for women over the past half-century. Lisette and Lucy's reflections provide valuable insights into the complexities of ageing, the evolution of personal freedoms, and the enduring power of friendship and self-discovery. Their story is a testament to the importance of openly discussing the realities of womanhood across generations.

    Join The Conversation

    How long has it been since your 21st birthday? Did you have a big celebration - and what do you look back on in the years between then and now? Depending on your age, what are the biggest changes in society and technology that have taken place since you were 21?

  • Getting Younger As You Get Older - 3 Types of Age
    2025/09/12

    In this episode, 70-year-old friends, Lucy and Lisette discuss the different types of ageing - chronological, biological, and subjective - and how our mindset about ageing can impact our physical and mental well-being.

    They discuss the scientific research that shows that ageing can be reversed by mindset as well as a healthy lifestyle and strong social connection; and share personal stories and reflections on navigating the experience of being 70 years old.

    Key Insights

    • There are three types of ageing: chronological (calendar age), biological (physical/cellular age), and subjective (how old one feels)

    • Our subjective age can fluctuate and has a strong influence on our biological ageing process

    • Sociability, community, and staying engaged with people of different age groups can help maintain youthfulness as we get older

    • The concept of "acting your age" may be more harmful than helpful - embracing a youthful mindset and spirit can positively impact health and vitality

    • And have we been here before – are some of us old souls and some of us first time visitors to human life?

    Why You Should Listen

    This episode provides a thoughtful, honest, and often humorous exploration of the realities and perceptions of ageing. The Lisette and Lucy's personal anecdotes and research insights offer listeners a relatable and inspiring perspective on approaching the later stages of life with vitality and purpose.

    Whether you are nearing 70 yourself or simply curious about the ageing process, this podcast will leave you with a greater appreciation for the subjective experience of growing older and questions about what age means in the context of reincarnation.

    Join The Conversation

    How old do you feel? Is it very similar or quite different to the number of years you've been alive? Do you believe the science that tells you that biological age is affected by how you feel about yourself, your mind and your body? And have you had any previous-life experiences or near death experiences? Lucy and Lisette are always fascinated by this subject and others' opinions.

    Through sharing personal stories and insights, they offer a relatable and insightful glimpse into the joys and challenges of embracing change at every stage of life.

    Key Insights:

    • Lisette and Lucy share their differing approaches to endings, with Lisette embracing curiosity and new beginnings, while Lucy grapples with a fear of change and loss.
