In this episode of the 'Midlife with Courage' podcast, Kim welcomes Jodi Silverman, a passionate advocate for empowering midlife women and moms. They discuss the evolving roles of motherhood, especially as children grow and gain independence, and the importance of mothers rediscovering their purpose.
Jodi shares her journey of self-discovery that began with a courageous question and led to embracing new opportunities and starting her community, 'Moms Who Dare'.
The conversation also touches upon dealing with perimenopause and postmenopause, the significance of getting curious about one's feelings, and the value of stepping out of comfort zones for personal growth.
Listeners are encouraged to embrace midlife changes positively and find new ways to flourish after 40.
