Episode Overview
What if your 60s could be the launchpad for a thriving solo venture? In episode #71, feminist and work-revolution thinker Laetitia Vitaud returns for her third appearance to share how women over 60 can reinvent their careers using their relationships and wisdom.
From leveraging your 150 trusted connections to embracing seasonal work rhythms, Laetitia offers practical ideas for career reinvention for women over 60.
Her insights, like “The most important asset to start a business today isn’t cash—it’s the 150 relationships you’ve been nurturing your whole life,” inspire action and resilience.
Key Takeaways
- Networked Entrepreneurship: Your relationships are your greatest asset for starting a business. Laetitia emphasizes, “How varied is the network that you have so that it can help you find ideas or new clients?”
- Cognitive Vitality: Older professionals have a cognitive edge with AI. Laetitia notes, “Older workers will have the upper hand because they have been trained cognitively to think critically.”
- Resilient Transitions: Align work with life’s seasons for sustainability. Laetitia’s seasonal approach echoes her own insight: “There are seasons in our lives and sometimes we feel tired.”
- AI-Augmented Work: Use AI as a conversational tool. Laetitia advises, “As a 60-year-old woman, you have more skills to do this conversation [with AI] properly than someone younger.”
