What if midlife is where your real story begins?
What if style could be a path to healing?
What if the courage to pivot isn’t about certainty—but about listening to what lights you up?
In this episode of The Sisters Podcast—a show where real women share the truth about reinvention, identity shifts, and doing life on their own terms—guest Tina Schwahn opens up about how she left a decades-long career in education to become a personal stylist in her 60s. Tina shares her deeply relatable journey through divorce, burnout, and rediscovering joy, purpose, and confidence in unexpected ways.
She tells a powerful anecdote about the day she returned to a high school classroom as a substitute teacher and, after just two days, was offered a full-time choir job—proving that showing up with your gifts can shift everything. Tina also talks about how she rebuilt her career after losing her joy during the pandemic and the moment she took a leap of faith by investing in her stylist training with zero plan but full-hearted trust.
Topics covered include:
Reinvention in midlife
Burnout and identity loss
Personal style as self-expression
Starting a business from scratch
How wardrobe transformation supports confidence
For women craving clarity, creativity, and a reminder that it's never too late to start again.
