What does it mean to say “yes” to life at every age? In this episode, we sit down with Cherie Kidd—trailblazer, former mayor of Port Angeles, breast cancer survivor, and the newly crowned Ms. Senior World 70s. From being told at 15 she was “too short” to model, to walking the runways of New York Fashion Week at 70+, Cherie has turned every “no” into undeniable power.
As the first woman elected to serve three terms on Port Angeles’ City Council and mayor, and after years in corporate America as an executive assistant to Fortune 500 CEOs, Cherie has always led with purpose. Now, as a global titleholder and mentor, she continues to redefine what's possible at any stage in life.
We dive into:
- Why age is never a barrier—it's a badge of resilience.
- How Cherie bounced back after multiple setbacks to win her crown on the third try.
- Her personal philosophy that “everything is created three times.”
- The power of perseverance, purpose, and a heart-led vision.
- Her advice to anyone facing rejection or ready to reignite their dreams.
Whether you're in your 30s, 60s, or anywhere in between, Cherie’s story will leave you feeling fired up to live boldly, say yes more often, and believe that your best days are still ahead.
Because the rest of your life truly is the best of your life.
