What happens when you stop listening to the voices that tell you to stay quiet, play small, or act your age"? At Podfest, I performed my song Power Up Generation" live — and something completely unexpected happened. The audience didn't just clap. They stood up. They came on stage. Creators of all ages joined me, singing and moving together in a moment that felt bigger than a performance. In this episode, I share what that night revealed about fear, creativity, aging, and why so many women — especially women over 40 — are searching for permission they don't actually need. We talk about: • Being told you're too old, too late, or not the right fit" • Why so many people are afraid to try something new later in life • What happens when you finally trust your voice • The power of community when people see themselves in your story • Why Power Up Generation" is becoming more than a song This episode is for anyone who has ever wondered: Is it too late for me to do the thing I really want to do?" It's not. And Saturday night proved it. Thank you for joining me today! I'm having a blast creating Fabulous Over 50 & it would be an honor to have you share it with someone who would enjoy it.
