    What happens when women "of a certain age" go back to school? Sherri Lynn sits down with Steph from Shine.FM to talk about fear, online learning, balancing family and faith, and discovering it's never too late to grow.    From confusing rubrics with Rubik's Cubes to learning new boundaries and rhythms, this honest conversation is encouragement for every woman wondering if she still has what it takes.     Quotes: "At 22, the stakes are so high.

Stacy brings clarity, humor, and deep compassion to this "window of vulnerability," reminding women that what they're experiencing is real.   Quotes: "You are the expert on what you're going through." "Menopause is a window of vulnerability and that means care matters." "Just because it's physical doesn't mean it isn't spiritual." "The devil plays in darkness, silence, and shame."
