Description

If you're someone who has no intention of settling down anytime soon, or if you're itching to try on some new hats, you're going to find this conversation with actor Diane Britt-Smith so inspiring. Diane left a successful longtime stint as a video producer to dive into a multifaceted midlife career that includes acting, modeling, voiceover artistry and street photography. She's also inspiring people with her encouraging, age-positive social media that offers an important message: It's never too late to explore your talents, try something new, or launch an entirely new career for yourself. Even though she's navigating a notoriously ageist industry, Diane is a firm believer that "we should enjoy watching ourselves age"—as naturally and with as much joy as possible.

During this uplifting conversation, Diane and I also chat about:

• What types of acting and modeling opportunities are available to women in midlife and beyond, and whether or not the film, TV and advertising industries have evolved in terms of age representation
• Why we need to set an example for the next generation by aging on our terms
• How you can build your confidence and embark on something new, even if you've convinced yourself it's too late (hint: It's not), and the best way to tackle that change
• Why it's so important to be candid about your age
• Why you need to start brushing your teeth while standing on one foot (yeah, you heard that right)
• The trick to a long-lasting relationship
• The best advice Diane's mom ever gave her about getting older

Diane also spills her top secrets on how to age well, and reveals the one thing you should never stop doing. Whatever age you are, you're going to love Diane and devour her words of wisdom. Full show notes available at Morebeautifulproject.com.
