Women tell you they quit the job, changed careers, moved abroad, started the business, or built a completely different life. Cool...but what happened in between? She Chose Again is an Out of Edits interview series about the messy middle of changing direction. We get into the part that usually gets skipped: money, skills, failed plans, tradeoffs, what took longer than expected, and what actually happened after the decision to change. These aren’t neat before-and-after stories. They’re real conversations about what it takes to build what comes next.

    Starting Over in Your 30s & 40s: Career Changes, Money, Solo Travel & Living Abroad

    What does starting over actually look like when it happens more than once? Usually, I’m the one asking the questions on What She Did Next. This time, my friend Tanisha interviewed me. We talked about the many times I’ve changed direction...leaving corporate, moving across the country, changing careers, becoming a freelancer, traveling solo, living abroad, and figuring out the money along the way. This is less of a clean “I changed my life and everything worked out” story and more about what starting over actually looked like for me. The plans that changed. The money decisions. The periods where I had no idea what I was doing. The times I disappeared while trying to figure things out. And why I’ve gotten so comfortable changing my mind when something isn’t working. If you’re thinking about starting over in your 30s or 40s, changing careers, freelancing, solo travel, living abroad, or creating a life that looks different from what you originally planned, this conversation gets into the parts that usually get skipped. In this episode, we talk about: Career changes and leaving corporateMoney and preparing for major life changesFreelancing and alternative ways of workingSolo travel and living abroadStarting over without having the whole planWhat the messy middle actually feels likeChanging your mind without treating it like failure About Out of Edits Out of Edits is a global publication for women who’ve outgrown the default path, exploring choice, reinvention, and the many ways women are building lives beyond the expected script.
