Midlife Reinvention, One Dress at a Time
A personal reflection on midlife reinvention, creativity, and building a fashion brand in your second chapter.
In this episode, I’m reflecting on midlife reinvention — and sharing my own story. This is a very honest catch-up, where I share where I’ve been, what the past season has held, and why it’s taken me a little while to return to the microphone.
I open up about launching Nancy The Label — a business born from legacy, creativity, and a deep desire to create something meaningful in this second chapter. I share the excitement, the fear, the self-doubt, and the moments of courage that came with starting again.
This episode is for anyone who’s felt the nudge to change direction, who’s wondered if it’s too late, or who’s standing on the edge of something new and slightly terrifying. Reinvention is rarely neat or linear — and that’s okay.
So, settle in and join me — I hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not behind, you’re not alone, and it’s never too late to begin again.
Lots of love
