Episode 128: Raej's Road to Wizdom - Empowering Women 50+ to Win in Life's Next Chapter
In this powerful and insightful episode, I sit down with my good friend Renee’ A. “RaeJ” Johnson, a true force in media, advocacy, and now—life coaching. We first met in St. Louis, and now, she’s taking her wisdom and experience to the next level, guiding women 50 and older through life’s transitions. From navigating career shifts to embracing new beginnings, RaeJ is empowering women to own their stories and step into their next chapter with confidence.
We also dive deep into her radio and television career, the journey of launching T.O.K.O.V.L. Radio, and the exciting launch of her new podcast, Wizdom to Win Podcast—a platform where she shares gems to help others thrive. Trust me, she drops so many jewels in this episode that you’ll want to take notes!
