Are you looking to start something new in your 40’s, 50’s or beyond but are scared to start? I never want to hear people say: “Oh it’s too late to make a change” or “I wanted to do that when I was younger, but it’s too late now.” WHY??? Why are 20 and 30-year-olds the only people who are allowed to start something new?
For people who are in their 40’s, 50’s, and beyond, you are uniquely qualified to launch that business, have that creative idea, or start that new life. You’ve “been around the block” as they say and your experience makes getting started faster and easier.
In this podcast, we will talk with people who have successfully started a business, made a major career change, started creative endeavors, made major health changes, started competing as an athlete, and gone back to school…all in their 40’s, 50s or beyond. This is the place for inspiration, motivation, and mindset shifts. You will walk away ready to take action with practical and informative advice from some of the most amazing “Late Starters” on the planet!
Today I have an announcement to make that is a little bit heart breaking because I truly believe in the inspiration that the Late Starters Club has been sharing with the world. It is so important that we chase our dreams no matter what stage of life we are at. Our actions not only inspire younger generations but motivates our peers to see what is truly possible in this world.
And one of the lessons that I needed to learn was that I can not do it all. At this time I will be taking a break from the Late Starters Club podcast to give a deeper focus to other areas of my life and business. However, I really want this message to continue, so if you (or someone you know) might be interested in co-hosting the podcast so that we can continue to tell the most inspiring mid-life stories, please reach out to me.
I am so grateful to all of you who have been on this journey with me. I see your comments and emails that let me know how much you have been inspired by these stories as well and I am thankful for each and every one of them.
I wish you all the best of luck and remember…it’s never too late to follow your dreams.
