If Not Now, When? Starting Over and Embracing Creative Confidence After 50
Episode 867
Monday, 17 November, 2025
Why I’m Just Getting Started: Creativity, Courage, and Confidence in My Late 50s What if the best years of your creativity, courage, and confidence are still ahead of you? In this episode of Your Creative Mind, I share my story of directing my very first play on a $50 budget, returning to theater decades later, and reflecting on what shows like And Just Like That reveal (and sometimes miss) about women over fifty choosing their own path. For me, starting fresh in my fifties isn’t about crisis. It’s about joy, freedom, and saying, if not now, when? If you’re reimagining your career, pursuing a long-held dream, or just craving inspiration to take action on what matters most, you’ll hear why I believe we’re never done creating. We’re just getting started. Get exclusive content and bonus podcast episodes when you join my Patreon.
