Our Guest, Wendi Knox, 70, shares her transformative journey of navigating ageism and reinventing herself after the age of 50.

An accomplished author, artist, and uplifter, Wendi has been empowering women to embrace aging as an opportunity to become more of who they are, not less of what they were.

Following an unexpected job loss in her 50s, Wendi experienced a miraculous encounter with red dragonflies that sparked a new purpose and inspired her to create a paradigm for transformation as we age.

From her journey of creating art for heart's sake to becoming a dragonfly whisperer and an advocate for shedding internalized ageism, Wendi opens up about how she helps others reconnect with their creativity and joy.

Tune in to hear her valuable insights on thriving in this exciting stage of life and discovering the magic in the muck through self-love and acceptance.

Get ready to be inspired and to break free from the age cage!
