    Salina Williams: Reinvention, Loss and What Comes Next (Part 2)

    If you haven't listened to Part One yet, be sure to go back and start there for the full story. In Part One, we talked about Salina's upbringing, her 23-year career in mental health and how she began building a presence online that so many women now connect with. This was more than just a conversation about fashion or social media. There was a turning point. And it was deeply personal. Salina opens up about one of her most difficult chapters -- the loss of the love of her life. That loss changed everything. We talk about: Love and loss Grief and navigating life afterward The decision to walk away from a 23-year career What it really takes to start over How she's continuing to build her life with intention This is a more intimate, emotional continuation of Salina's story -- one that many people may not have heard before. Sometimes life forces a shift we didn't plan for, and in that space, we're given the opportunity to begin again. Salina's story is a reminder that even after loss, there is still room to rebuild, redefine and move forward. After listening to this episode, visit my website and share your thoughts.

  2. Salina Williams: Visibility, Vulnerability & The Life Behind The Influence

    Salina Williams: Visibility, Vulnerability & The Life Behind The Influence

    There's something that can happen to many women as we get closer to fifty. Confidence can start to shift. Our bodies change. Our energy changes. And for women who have grown up in a culture that places so much value on appearance, those changes can hit in ways we didn't expect. But every now and then, you come across a woman who reminds you that none of that means you have to shrink. My guest today is one of those women. Salina Williams, known to many as Salina Sincerely, has been showing up on social media for more than a decade. What started as sharing her personal style has evolved into something much deeper -- a powerful platform rooted in honesty, vulnerability and connection. Women follow her for the fashion, but stay for who she is. In this Part One episode, Salina opens up about:  Her upbringing and early life experiences Her 23-year career in the mental health field How she began sharing her life online The evolution from fashion content to meaningful storytelling Building a loyal community of women through authenticity This is a conversation about confidence, visibility, vulnerability and choosing yourself. The conversation was so good, it had to be split into two parts. Be sure to come back next week for Part Two, where we discuss the life-changing loss that shifted everything.

  3. Different Phases, Different Friendships

    FEB 19

    Different Phases, Different Friendships

    The friendship circle that fit you five years ago may not fit you now. As your life shifts -- ambition expands, priorities change, kids grow up, energy realigns -- your circle shifts too. Sometimes, the hardest part isn't losing people; it's realizing you no longer fit in the same dynamic. Not every friendship is meant to survive your growth. Not everyone is meant to go where you're going. In this episode, I unpack the patterns that quietly show up in women's friendships as we move through different phases of life. The subtle dynamics. The unspoken tensions. The shifts that feel confusing at first, but make perfect sense once you name them. We talk about: Why proximity-based friendships fade What happens when ambition creates distance The grief of being more invested than the other person Why some people only love the familiar version of you How to protect the friendships that truly align If your circle feels different lately, it's not random. Different phases. Different friendships. Please review, rate and subscribe.

    Too Young For This

    Somewhere around 50, a lot of women start talking as though life is wrapping up. They stop imagining what's next. They start saying things like "I'll just ride this out," I don't want to start over," or "I've already made my friends." The truth is they're way too young for that. In this episode we're calling out the quiet shift so many women make long before they need to -- mentally winding down careers, closing themselves off socially, choosing comfort over curiosity and shrinking their lives instead of expanding them. This isn't about slowing down and it's definitely not about doing less. It's about what happens when experienced, capable, intelligent women stop leveraging everything they've learned and start living as if their most meaningful years are behind them. In this conversation, we explore: why your 50s are the time to elevate how retirement thinking can drain energy, identity and purpose why starting something new now is not starting over the hidden cost of closing yourself off to new friendships and experiences how curiosity keeps life full and engaging If you still feel capable, have ideas and sense that there's more for you (professionally socially and personally), this episode will speak directly to you. Tune in if you're ready to stop shrinking and start living this phase of life fully.

    EP 31. The Life You Built vs. The Life You Want: What Happens When They Aren't the Same?

    There's a moment many women experience where they look around at their life and think: "This is what I worked for, so why doesn't it feel right?" Not because anything is falling apart. Not because life is horrible. But because the life you built versus the life you want no longer feel like the same thing. In this episode, we talk about that quiet, unsettling gap where misalignment resides. The kind that shows up as restlessness, boredom or annoyance. You'll hear why misalignment doesn't always come from crisis; sometimes it comes from success. You've completed chapters. You've accomplished established goals. Now, you realize that you've outgrown your life.  We explore how to recognize misalignment, why ignoring it keeps you stuck and how small, intentional shifts can change everything. If you've been asking yourself "Is this it?", this conversation is for you. Tag me after listening to this episode @livinghernextphase and share your thoughts about it.

  6. The Power of Being Still

    The Power of Being Still

    What if the most productive thing you can do is stop?  In this episode, I talk openly about why I stepped away for several months, what I uncovered during that pause and how stillness helped me regain clarity, energy and direction in my life. For women who are constantly in motion, managing careers, families, relationships and expectations, being still can feel uncomfortable, even impossible. But sometimes, stillness is the only way to hear yourself think, reconnect with what you want and realign how you want to live in your next phase. If you've been feeling bored, restless, overstimulated or quietly unfilfilled, this episode is for you. Stillness isn't about luxury, retreats or disappearing from your life. It's about intention, boundaries and making space for clarity to emerge. Tune in as we discuss: 00:00 The Power of Stillness 03:30 Navigating Life Transitions 09:22 Types of Stillness 10:10 Practices for Embracing Stillness 21:06 Finding Clarity and Direction 24:22 Intentional Living and Future Planning Referenced Resource: Next Phase Plan-of-Action Workshop www.livinghernextphase.com/poa Thank you for listening!  Rate, subscribe and review the podcast.
