This week on "The bRight Side of 50 with Carla Palmer," we're getting into the topic of beauty and self-perception during midlife. Aging presents a unique array of challenges, from navigating menopause to dealing with issues like sagging skin, hair thinning, weight changes, and shifts in facial appearance. It can be a real struggle at times. That's why when we receive a compliment, we embrace it wholeheartedly! We value and treasure these moments of affirmation, and that's precisely what we'll be discussing today! HAVE YOU "FOLLOWED" The bRight Side of 50, with Carla Palmer? Turned on notification?

This week I'm sharing how two women's stamp of approval helped me gain access and entrance to women and places I only could have dreamed of. Women of influence play a crucial role in uplifting other women who are doing impactful work. Their stamp of approval not only validates and recognizes the achievements of these women but also opens doors to opportunities, resources, and networks that can further amplify their efforts. This support creates a ripple effect, inspiring confidence in other women and encouraging them to strive for excellence. Additionally, when women in positions of power and influence endorse and promote each other, it challenges stereotypes and biases, fostering a more inclusive and equitable society where everyone's contributions are valued and celebrated.

This week on The bRight Side of 50 with Carla Palmer, we're chatting with Dr. Terré, The Money Maximizer on the topic of Choosing Divorce and Joy in Midlife. It's a common response: "Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that," when women share they're getting a divorce. Yet, as sad as the news may be, it doesn't have to mark the end of the world for women. In this enlightening conversation with Dr. Terre, we get a different narrative. While the decision to divorce wasn't easy, she offers important insights she gained from reflecting on her journey - from the start of her relationship with her ex-husband to their year and a half of marriage, and the pivotal moment that signaled it was time to say goodbye. This episode isn't just about Dr. Terre's story; there are valuable lessons here for all of us. We get into the importance of self-awareness and authenticity in relationships - are we truly aligned with who we are at our core? We explore the concept of submission in marriage and the barriers women often face in embracing it. Additionally, we learn the significance of acknowledging and understanding our partner's relationships with others (i.e. their mothers, grandmothers and siblings). Hindsight, as they say, is often 20/20. By listening and learning from those who've navigated paths similar to ours, we increase our chances of success when we reach our desired destinations (e.i. marriage). Whether you're a woman in your 40s or a a woman over 50, this episode is for you! Tune in to gain wisdom and perspectives that can reshape how we approach relationships and life's transitions.

I don't care how you feel about single moms and how/why they're in the situation they're in; raising their children on their own--THEY NEED HELP! This episode hits home for me because I WAS that single mom who needed help while I was doing all that I could to get out of the rut I'd found myself in. I wasn't lazy, I wasn't irresponsible, I wasn't looking for a handout, I was simply trying to pull myself up. I needed a little support along the way, until I could fly on my own. Without caring, generous people in my life along the way, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'm better in my 50, in midlife, because people cared about me. They wanted to see me on the other side of where I was. With skyrocketing inflation and the rate of pay not increasing along with it, it is extremely difficult for a single mom to thrive. There are single moms all around us who WANT better for themselves and their children. They are TRYING! They are showing up for work, working on building their professional skills, and doing what they can with the time and energy they have to rise above the poverty line. But while they're doing all of this, they could use a little (or a LOT) of support. Tap in and listen to some ways in which you can support a deserving single mom today. And please let me know your thoughts after you've listened. I can't wait to hear from you! HAVE YOU "FOLLOWED" The bRight Side of 50, with Carla Palmer? Turned on notification?

Navigating the world of dating in midlife, and especially after 50, can come with its own set of challenges, but it's essential to remember that being single at this stage of life is perfectly okay, regardless of societal pressures. Embracing solitude can offer a unique opportunity for personal growth, self-discovery, and newfound independence. Rather than succumbing to societal norms or external expectations, it's empowering to prioritize your own happiness and fulfillment. Whether pursuing new relationships or enjoying the freedom of singlehood, the journey is about honoring your authentic self and embracing the beauty of the present moment. Tap in as I share my dating experiences, as a GenX woman over 50, over the past decade and why I'm content with being single at the moment.

For women over 50 or in midlife, challenging ourselves is important for many reasons: 1. Personal Growth: Midlife is a time of transition and reflection, and pushing ourselves outside of our comfort zone can lead to new insights, skills, and experiences. 2. Career Advancement: Many of us in midlife, especially those of us over 50, may be at a point in our careers where we are seeking new opportunities or looking to advance professionally. Challenging ourselves can help us acquire new skills, take on leadership roles, and pursue our career goals. 3. Mental and Emotional Well-being: Challenging ourselves can boost confidence, self-esteem, and resilience, which are important for maintaining mental and emotional well-being during midlife. It can also provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment. 4. Overcoming Stereotypes and Expectations: Women in midlife may face stereotypes and societal expectations about aging and limitations. Challenging ourselves can help break through these barriers and rid stereotypes, showing that women can continue to learn, grow, and achieve at any age. 5. Setting an Example: By challenging ourselves in midlife, we can inspire others, including younger generations, to pursue their goals and dreams with determination and resilience. We can serve as, much needed, role models for lifelong learning and personal development. This episode was inspired by one of my favorite podcasters, Dan Koe. He is known for his quote, "Do hard things until they become easy." This quote emphasizes the importance of perseverance and pushing oneself beyond comfort zones in order to grow and achieve success. It suggests that by tackling challenging tasks consistently, individuals can develop their skills and confidence over time, ultimately making those difficult tasks seem more manageable.
