Reinvention After 50: Defy Expectations, Live on Purpose

Aging with Purpose and Passion

Wondering if it’s too late to reinvent after 50? Dr. Alison Schmidt proves it’s not.

In this inspiring episode, Alison—once a successful executive coach—shares how turning 50 and facing the COVID crisis pushed her to reimagine everything. From profit-driven consulting to purpose-driven leadership, she now helps others create midlife transformations that align with their deepest values.

We explore:

• What it really takes to create reinvention after 50
• How to break free from conventional expectations
• The power of the “un-word effect” to unlock hidden strengths
• Why it’s never too late to chase a dream (Alison bought her first racing bike at 54!)
