    Writing the Long Way Round: Tracy Whitwell, A Voice With More Than One Origin | #YANIA50² | Ep 101

    Working-class. Geordie. ADHD. Tuned to music, voices, and what most people filter out. Actress-turned-author Tracy Whitwell didn’t find her voice—she stopped containing it.   Full Description: Some lives move in straight lines. This one moves by instinct. Tracy Whitwell was born in Gateshead and never stopped creating. By six, she'd written her first play. By her teens—acting, writing, making music. Always something. Always moving. Always needing to make. As the years passed, London came, and so did the work. By the early 90s, Tracy was a professional actress working across stage, screen, and radio. Voice became discipline. Timing became everything. Then 2006 made its appearance, alongside the birth of her son. As she stepped away and embedded herself within motherhood and writing full-time for stage, screen, and music videos – something deeper was stirring. Tracy drafted a novel she'd been thinking about for years and wrote it in weeks. Then another. And another. Eleven books later, Pan Macmillan came calling asking for the “whole heap of crazy truth” in her fictional (but rooted in experience) novel, The Accidental Medium.  Alongside her published work, that continues with 5 more books planned from next year, sits inheritance.  Originating from a long line of Wise Women, Tracy works as a healer, card reader, energy clearer, and clairaudient. By listening to the unsaid and seeing the invisible, Tracy utilisesher gift to provide advice and consolation as the Sweary Witch, penning self-help books that are direct, unsentimental, and precise.  In this episode, Tracy speaks about her reinvention through loss and discovery, embracing her spiritual gifts and power, the importance of vulnerability and self-acceptance, and how women should embrace all the sensory pleasures life has to offer. This isn’t a reinvention story. It’s about timing, accumulation, and work done without hurry.   🎧 Writing the Long Way Round: Tracy Whitwell, A Voice With More Than One Origin | #YANIA50² | Ep 101 Now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.   💬 Connect with Tracy Whitwell 📸 Instagram: @tracywhitwell 🎙️ Audiobooks: The Accidental Medium series 📚 Author of The Accidental Medium | Sweary Witch   🔗 Stay Connected with You Are Not Invisible After 50 📸 Instagram: @youarenotinvisibleafter50 🌐 Website: https://www.youarenotinvisibleafter50.com 🎵 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yania50official ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@youarenotinvisibleafter50     🎧 IF YOU STAY WITH THIS If something here resonates, there are quiet ways to let it travel — not for numbers, but for the women who haven’t found the language yet.   This is You Are Not Invisible After 50.

  3. This Feeling Isn’t Random: Susan King and the Intelligence That Sees Before You Do (S10 E10)

    12/24/2025

    This Feeling Isn’t Random: Susan King and the Intelligence That Sees Before You Do (S10 E10)

    You didn’t imagine it.Something inside you already recognised it. 📖 Full Description The feeling arrives before the explanation.A pause in the body.A reaction without logic.A knowing that forms before language can reach it. The moment is quiet.The signal is not. That’s intuition. Not an idea.Not a belief.An intelligence already active—quietly shaping your direction while you were busy looking elsewhere. Most people are taught to override it early. To prioritise proof. To wait for permission. To mistake disconnection for discipline. Over time, they lose trust in the very system designed to guide them. This week, on the You Are Not Invisible After 50 podcast, I sit down with Susan King—our 100th female guest. A milestone AND a guest with a special gift. Susan is well-known around the globe as a Master Intuitive Counsellor, Spiritual Teacher, Emotional Healer, and Meditation Instructor. She is sought out by those navigating chaos, confusion, and major life transitions—people who need clarity when certainty is unavailable. She doesn’t analyse your life—she sees it. Her authority didn’t appear overnight. Over the years, Susan’s work has surfaced everywhere intuition refuses to be dismissed—across international publications, radio, and television. She has hosted her own UK show, Sixth Sense, written as a columnist for Elle Canadaand Marie Claire, and appeared across global media platforms in the UK, US, Monaco, Japan, and Singapore. Her insights have been featured in the Los Angeles Times, Wall Street Journal, Guardian, Telegraph, CNN, and Oprah—not as novelty, but as relevance. Her work lives at the highest levels of wellness and influence—supporting institutions and environments where discernment matters. From leading wellness centres and luxury spas in New York, Miami, London, Los Angeles, Singapore, and across Asia, to long-standing collaborations within the global spa and wellness community, Susan works where clarity must be real—not theoretical. Her impact has also been recognised personally. Susan’s guidance has earned global respect and endorsement from leaders who understand intuition as strategy—not sentiment. For over a decade, her insight has shaped decisions with lasting personal and professional consequence for those operating at the highest levels. In this episode, Susan talks about her lifelong intuitive abilities that began in childhood which later evolved after a car accident at 25, her journey from a corporate career in pharmaceutical sales to later becoming a full-time intuitive, her devastating loss of her husband at 50, and how we should all become “more like water.”    For those who feel something already moving beneath the surface.For those who sense alignment before understanding.For those who know the answer arrived first. You won’t leave this episode feeling finished.You’ll leave feeling alert. Because once intuition is seen—it doesn’t go back to being quiet. 🎧 Listen to S10 Ep 10 — This Feeling Isn’t Random on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen. 💬 Stay Connected with Susan King 🌐 Website: www.susankingintuitive.com📧 Email: Susan@susankingintuitive.com📍 Sessions worldwide — New York · Miami · London 🔗 You Are Not Invisible After 50📸 Instagram: @youarenotinvisibleafter50🌐 Website: www.youarenotinvisibleafter50.com All links available in the About section #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50 #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50Podcast #100thFemaleGuest #ThisFeelingIsntRandom #SusanKing #Intuition #IntuitionFirst #InnerSignal #EmbodiedIntelligence#HolisticHealing #IntuitiveCounselor #MindBodySpirit#WomenInWellness #GlobalHealer #QuietAuthority#PodcastStorytelling #CinematicPodcast#TrustTheSignal #InvisibleNoMore #RealWomenRealStories #ListenNow #InvisibleNoMore #RealWomenRealStories #ListenNow #IAmKiranKumar13

    Behind the Click: Jo Scalpello and the Quiet War for Digital Trust (S10 E9)

    Every transaction tells a story—most people never see the ending. For Jo Scalpello, three decades inside global brands revealed a truth hiding in plain sight.   📖 Full Description The moment is almost invisible. A screen glows. A price flashes. A button waits. The transaction is seamless. The danger is not. Behind the polished interfaces of modern e-commerce, legitimate businesses and fraudulent operations now look identical to the untrained eye. Deceptive retailers thrive in plain sight, while accountability struggles to keep pace with innovation. For consumers, the consequences are deeply personal—lost money, stolen data, broken trust. And for institutions, the risks are often externalised. But for Jo Scalpello, the cost was personal—and a solution had to be engineered. After a 30-year career leading growth and transformation across entertainment marketing, franchising, and e-commerce, Jo stepped beyond observation and into action. As Founder and CEO of Retail Checker Ltd, she deliberately built a digital verification tool designed to validate online retailers and reduce consumer exposure before money changes hands. In this episode, Jo divulges all about her remarkable career spanning three decades across iconic brands including Playstation and Nike, her unexpected redundancy that led to open doors that she wouldn’t have discovered otherwise, how being scammed purchasing shoes from a fraudulent online retailer led to the birth of Retail Checker, and how one should always adopt the mindset that the “world is conspiring to help you, not against you.” This is not just a story about e-commerce. It’s about experience sharpening instinct. • Vigilance is learned. • Women over 50 know the difference.   🎧 Listen to S10 Ep 9 — Behind the Click on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen.   💬 Stay Connected with Jo Scalpello: LinkedIn - www.linkedin.com/in/jo-scalpello-9223b75@retail-checker-ltdInsta - @Retailcheckerltd Facebook - @Retail Checker Ltd  🔗 Stay Connected with You Are Not Invisible After 50: 📸 Instagram: @youarenotinvisibleafter50 🌐 Website: www.youarenotinvisibleafter50.com ✨ All links available in the About section.   #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50 #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50Podcast #JoScalpello #BehindTheClick #JoScalpello #WomenOver50 #WomenInLeadership #FemaleFounders #TechForGood #EthicalTech #PodcastStorytelling #DigitalTrust #OnlineSafety #EcommerceFraud #ConsumerProtection #InvisibleNoMore #RealWomenRealStories #ListenNow #IAmKiranKumar13

    The Woman Behind the Pose: Tera O’Hara’s Journey Through Shadows & Light (S10 E8)

    She learned to hold a pose long before she learned to hold herself. Now, decades later, Tera O’Hara is modelling with silver hair, untamed truth, and a story that refuses to stay behind the lens.   📖 Full Description What happens when a woman shaped by shadows decides to step into her own light? Tera O’Hara entered the modelling world at eighteen, already carrying the fractures of a childhood marked by turbulence, silence, and a relentless fight for self-worth. The fashion industry praised her beauty, but behind every flawless pose was a girl still trying to outrun the echoes of her past. The woman she would become was forged far from the runway or the lights. Her transformation happened in the shadows she was brave enough to enter: the inner work, the ancestral unravelling, the profound healing cultivated through yoga, the grit of homesteading, the vulnerability of poetry and art, and the ancient medicine traditions of plants and amphibians. Tera travelled into the deepest layers of her lineage—unravelling generational pain, rewriting inherited stories, and reclaiming the parts of herself that were never meant to be lost. Each practice cracked her open, offering not glamour but truth. Not perfection, but power. She didn’t just rebuild herself—she rewrote the narrative of those who came before her and those who will follow. In this open and honest episode, Tera dives into breaking the cycle of toxic family patterns, her multi-layered healing journey through psychotherapy and plant medicine, and her shift from being invisibly undervalued to becoming visible and relevant in her 50s—both in the modelling industry and within herself. Tera’s evolution is not a fashion story. It’s the anatomy of awakening. A descent into shadow. A rise into light. A powerful reminder that the most unforgettable transformations happen after the world stops watching—and the soul starts speaking. Now in her 50s, as a silver-haired model and mother, she stands with a presence carved from lived experience—a beauty sharpened by resilience, softened by grace, and illuminated by self-understanding. She embodies the kind of womanhood that refuses to disappear. 🎧 Listen to S10 Ep 8 — The Woman Behind the Pose on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen. 💬 Connect with Tera O’Hara: 📸 Instagram: @teraohara 🔗 Stay Connected with You Are Not Invisible After 50: 📸 Instagram: @youarenotinvisibleafter50 🌐 Website: www.youarenotinvisibleafter50.com ✨ All links available in the About section.   #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50 #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50Podcast #WomenOver50 #SilverRevolution #MidlifeAwakening #HealingLegacy #BeautyBeyondYouth #ModelingAt50 #HealingJourney #InvisibleNoMore #PodcastStorytelling #RealWomenRealStories #EmpoweredWomen #UnseenNoMore #AgePositive #ListenNow #IAmKiranKumar13

    Age Is Not the Villain: Charlotte Lim’s Journey to Fierce, Visible Power (S10 E7)

    If you’ve ever been told you’re ‘too old,’ this episode is your revenge. Ever seen a grandmother drag stereotypes to the gym—and leave them there? 📖 Full Description At 79 years old—Singaporean grandmother, retired anthropologist, and accidental global fitness icon—Charlotte Lim stepped into the weight room at an age when most people are told to slow down. A barbell. A pull-up bar. A body the world assumed was too old to begin. A life that quietly insisted otherwise. This isn’t just a story about muscles and medals. It’s the slow, powerful unlearning of every limitation ever imposed on age, womanhood, and the body. It’s the rise of a woman who discovered that strength doesn’t diminish with time—it compounds. Fuelled by her no-SoAP diet (no Sugar, no Oil, no Additives, no Processed foods), powered by her FitFam, @fitrx_singapore @coachwhy_yan and amplified by thousands on Instagram @pullup_grandma, She has become the internet’s most dangerous kind of woman: An older woman who knows her power. This episode isn’t just inspiring. It’s disruptive. It’s confrontational. It’s a masterclass in defying every narrative fed to women about their bodies, their timelines, their worth, and what “old” is supposed to look like. In this electric episode, Charlotte shares all about her journey rising from poverty through education and perseverance, how she made the switch from the corporate world and found her calling in humanitarian mission work, how starting at 72 made her fitness icon at nearly 80, and how age is no barrier to meaningful contribution, personal development., and realising the quiet, poignant truth beneath her bravado: it’s never too late to feel proud of your body. This isn’t a tale of anti-ageing. It’s a story about rewriting expectations—rep by rep, race by race, year by year—until the world can no longer pretend not to see what older women are capable of.   🎧 Listen to “Age Is Not the Villain: Charlotte Lim’s Journey to Fierce, Visible Power” now on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts. 🔗 Connect with Charlotte Lim 📸 Instagram: @pullup_grandma    🔗 Stay Connected with You Are Not Invisible After 50 📸 Instagram: @youarenotinvisibleafter50 🌐 Website: www.youarenotinvisibleafter50.com ✨ All links available via the About section. 🚪 When you think your story is over, look again—your next chapter may be the strongest one yet. 🫶 Share this with someone who needs proof that it’s never too late to rise. 💌 Tag a woman redefining what 50, 60, 70, or 80 can look like.   #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50 #YouAreNotInvisibleAfter50Podcast #AgelessStrength #PullUpGrandma #MidlifeReinvention #WomenWhoDefyLimits #StrengthAtAnyAge #PodcastStorytelling #PowerfulWomen #RealWomenRealStories #EmpoweredWomen #UnseenNoMore #AgePositive #ListenNow #IAmKiranKumar13

    In Search of Mr Darcy: Christina Ford and the Shattered Fairytale That Eventually Set Her Free (S10 E6)

    Ever chased a fairytale so bright it blinded you? Ever trusted a promise so deeply you crossed an ocean for it? 📖 Full Description  Christina Ford did—award-winning producer, cultural force, and mother of two—who stepped into what looked like her own Austen-worthy beginning. A woman. A man. A whispered promise across continents. A life left behind for love, London, and the shimmering myth of happily-ever-after. But even the brightest stories cast shadows. And when hers finally cracked open, she found herself standing alone in the ruins—unmasked, undone, and more awake than she had ever been. That’s when the real metamorphosis began. Not quietly. Not politely. Christina didn’t just survive the heartbreak that tried to reshape her — she weaponised it. She turned devastation into language, reinvention into art, and her unfiltered truth into A Broad in London, the beloved blog where she wrote her way out of the dark and into a life reclaimed fiercely on her own terms. In this scintillating episode, Christina—award-winning producer, BBC Radio London commentator, and author of the seven-time award-winning memoir In Search of Mr Darcy: Lessons Learnt in the Pursuit of Happily Ever After—talks about: ✨ transforming betrayal into creative power ✨the lessons learned from difficult romantic relationships ✨the power of female friendships and sisterhood  ✨celebrating this stage of her life as a time to be selfish, prioritise herself, and enjoy what matters most   This isn’t a tale of collapse.
