Show Notes
Jodi Silverman didn’t set out to lead a movement—she just wanted to figure out what came next.
In Part 1, she opens up about career shifts, midlife transitions, and how becoming an empty nester sent her on a completely different path. Spoiler: it involved leaving behind a successful print business, embracing a “dare,” and launching a community that now supports thousands of women through their own identity resets.
Whether you’re a parent or not, this is a story about transition, reinvention, and giving yourself permission to be more than one thing.

What happens when the kids leave and purpose takes a nap.
A Guilty No, and a New Yes
