Yvonne Marchese is the host of the Late Bloomer Living Podcast, a professional photographer, mother and wife. At the age of 48, she realized that she’d bought into a story about getting old that was adversely affecting her health and relationships. Changing her story about aging inspired her to start the Late Bloomer Living Podcast where she is on a mission to redefine society's ideas on aging and exploring how to live a life by design. Yvonne believes that midlife is filled with possibility, that it’s never too late to pursue a dream and that the stories we tell ourselves have tremendous power. Yvonne presented an online event called Midlife Uprising, May 11-13, 2022, dedicated to helping women in midlife get unstuck, get inspired and take the steps to bust through resignation and old habits so they can take on new challenges, dreams and passion projects. The speaker lineup included experts like Dara Goldberg, Jack Perez, Lou Blaser and me, Maria Olsen. The summit is built on three thematic pillars--Clarity, Compassion and Courage-- one for each day of the event.
Day 1 - Clarity around our automatic thoughts and unearthing our desires for the future.
Day 2 - Compassion - Reframing our thoughts with a big dose of self compassion.
Day 3 - Courage and taking action towards our desires and goals.
