My guest in this episode is New York Times and USA Today's best-selling author, Jane Porter. She's written over 70 romances and women's fiction novels has had 3 of her books turned into Movies of the Week, started a publishing company at forty-in to give writers more opportunities, and now at 58 works placing Tule Publishing stories with film producers. Jane believes you're never too old to reinvent yourself or create the life you want. I know you will love our conversation!
Read MoreToday's guest encourages other women to embark on their solo travel journeys. Yolanda DeLoach finds empowerment and peace in solo travel, camping, and hiking. Her schedule as a hospice/palliative care nurse enables her to have long stretches off to pursue travel and hiking.
She shares her advice to women in midlife: "Don't be afraid to try things solo. The most common response women say when they hear about my solo adventures is, "I wish I could do something like that!" You can! Take small steps."

Let me introduce you to Cheryl Whitelaw. She is a Move More without regrets coach, teacher, and CEO of Peace and Power Movement Services. She supports her clients to learn through their movement through body-based coaching, Vitamin MM Mindful Movement classes, and hands-on work to support functional activity. Her clients share a desire to live with vitality, keep going as they age, and often recover from life-changing conditions like MS, Fibromyalgia, or brain injuries. She found true joy in a movement when she started training in aikido at age 46. Currently, she is preparing for her black belt test.

All the “flaws” you feel you have are magnified in how you see yourself. While all of your gifts are downplayed. You brush away all the areas where you have been successful or are proud of. What if, you could think, “Hot damn, I’m pretty amazing!”
And I think that’s one of the amazing attributes Kim Romain brings to the show.
Read MoreGrace and I have many similar life experiences and do identical work supporting women over 40 with their business mindset. And I've been very fortunate to know Grace through the Courageous Living Coach Certification. So we've even met in person! And our conversation in today's show makes it feel like yesterday. In fact, we were talking about reclaiming midlife, and neither of us realized we had started the podcast conversation! So it's a good thing; I had hit the record button early.
Grace believes that women can achieve anything anytime and that her age should never be a factor. It was only in her early 40s, after she started her 1st business that she realized that JOY was hers to have (she always thought she needed permission). And that doubt didn't need to be her constant sidekick.
