What does it really mean to age boldly and unapologetically?
In this episode, I chat with Angel Cicerone — entrepreneur, author, and creator of Old Broad. New Tricks. — about living out loud, staying curious, and thriving as we age.
Angel shares her experience of moving to New York City at 60, building new connections, and using TikTok to challenge outdated ideas about aging. We talk about entrepreneurship, understanding money, staying tech-savvy, and finding joy in independence — even when that means dining solo!
This conversation with Angel reinforces what I believe deeply: our 60s, 70s, and beyond are not years to retreat but years to thrive, connect, and contribute in meaningful ways. The experience and wisdom we carry deserve to be shared, celebrated, and built upon.
Whatever you've been putting off or dreaming about, let this be your reminder that now is the time. Your decades of experience aren't baggage - they're your superpower.
So what's your next move? I can't wait to see what you create!
